So wrong on two counts: – have never been an impatient and angry guy, so your guess is way off the mark. More a much respected and successful manager of teams in the sporting and business fields, with accolades to prove it. True it's not my forum, however what I decide to read or post I consider my "personal space". So as they say (well almost) in Thailand, "up to me".

September 26, 20232 yr Popular Post IMO ignore lists should be transparent. Board members should be able to see who is on everyone else's list and whom is "ignoring" them. Same applies to "Likees/emojis". Why should we not know the identity of those who like or dislike our posts or find them funny, puzzling, or sad? The proliferation of anonymous and inappropriate use of the "sad" and "confused" emojis, since they became anonymous, has allowed certain members to troll away without being held to account. Just for information - I have never used the "ignore" button, and I never will.

The people who publicly state "you're going on my ignore list" like it's a big deal are almost certainly the same people who start the "should we ban emojis" threads. Snowflakes who can't engage in a discourse. And the same ones who report you....

I think it could be a little embarrassing for some members.

Agreed, the names /emojies should be given as it was previously so you can decide if they are intelligent or just thick as a brick and worth opening any further discussion.
September 28, 20232 yr About 30. Just saves time scrolling thru the trash. Only 5 or 6 good posters on any forum. Good to save time.

However I recently, for the first time in 15 years on the forum, put three tedious members on ignore. Why would you consider someone who has an opposing "political, religious or lifestyle views " views your enemy, Having one's views challenged is favor that either points out your error, or straightens your beliefs. And please remove my name from the your list, I swear it was not me, someone hacked my account.

If its only 5 or 6 good posters in a forum, why waste time on such a forum?
