If you are just say so. I'm curious who these are. I probably hate you anyway so I wouldn't be offended.

I've concluded that the 15 ignoring me must either:

-be lurkers and/inactive
or
-frequently hit the "show post" button on my posts since I have yet to notice any poster actually ignoring me and not responding to my posts.

I get the feeling using the "ignore button" is often used not so much to actually ignore people but to let that person know that someone doesn't like them. You're right, many people probably do click show on your posts if they have you on ignore. I know two of the people ignoring me are States and DanielX, and neither of them posts anymore so the number of users ignoring you also probably has inactive users.

Both have admitted to ignoring me too actually, so there's two.

And yes, you're probably right about how the ignore button is usually used. Hell Straha had well over 40 ignores and almost everyone still conversed with him.

Or, it might be a way of simply ignoring 99% of someone's post, and only looks at it/response if it is quoted by someone else.  For the few that I have ignored, the threads read a lot quicker and easier without all the nonsense distractions.

-frequently hit the "show post" button on my posts since I have yet to notice any poster actually ignoring me and not responding to my posts.

Pretty much.  You were one of the first people to go on my ignore list, but much like a plane crash viewed in slow motion, while your posts are awful to look at they're strangely compelling at the same time.  It often feels a bit like, "how much worse could it possibly get?"

Believe me, I honestly had every attention of literally ignoring you, much like I did with Straha, whom I paid absolutely no attention to whatsoever once the ignore button was introduced.  I failed to see any point in his case, as I did not expect him to get any worse.

He actually got a lot better. Too bad you didn't take that into account.


They need to do away with the ignore button. Too much drama.

Taking the continuous stream of reported posts and general complaints about him into account, I would beg to differ.

Not me - I will never ignore anybody, and that's a promise.

EDIT: Except DWTL, but that wasn't my fault.

You should list out who you think is ignoring you, like bgwah's post.

It would open up a bigger can of worms.

Well if you could care less, your ego must be at least a little fragile... Tongue

Why does everyone want to know who is ignoring Rockefeller Republican?

I for one would like to know who is ignoring ME, not due to my fragile/tumescent ego, but because I want to know who is so dumb.

Me too. It boggles my mind why anyone would want to block out your posts. They're just depriving themselves of so many gems.

Right back at you BRTD.

But I suppose one man's gem is another's turd.
