He's kind of a baby though. Get someone like JVS to ignore you and you'll be in the big leagues.
 
don't have anyone but i'm thinking of putting on ignore that guy that always signs his replies.
that's "it rubs the lotion on its skin" level creepy.

@IGIT is kind of a troll, but he's definitely capable of making good posts, and is pretty sharp and well-informed. That's the type of poster that I'd never put on my list.

i work in a very formal environment. i'll be damned if i have to look at that giddy formalism in a fight forum as well.
 
Funny tension here, with people claiming it an honor to be ignored, or others claiming it's shameful to ignore annoying people. If it makes your time here better, why wouldn't you do it? I've never ignored somebody because I disagreed with their POV, only because they are annoying (spamming/trolling) or if they get way too personal. But it's kind of funny when you know people are quoting you in vain for months I suppose.

Yeah, it's a weird view that one should read all the garbage posts out of some sense of obligation. I think it would be a little odd to try to avoid contrary views (like Thuriasz's list is really incomprehensible to me because a lot of it is posters who make substantive contributions to discussions), but we all know that there are a lot of posters here who have zero chance of saying anything worth reading and who just bring empty negativity. There are a lot of posters whose names make me interested in opening a thread, and a lot of posters I just do not care about at all.

I agree that some of them do, on occasion. I simply don't find their signal to noise ratio good enough.

Some of it is just me, I'm sure. My unapologetic bluntness rubs many the wrong way and otherwise quite reasonable people can go to surprising lengths "just to see me put to my place". Nothing annoys a certain type of people more than the guy who not only disagrees but is obviously a lot more intelligent than them. It's a tough cookie to swallow when one was the smart guy in the class and then learning the hard way that his class wasn't a high scoring one.

And there's also the thing that I leave traps in my posts.

Yep, I've never even reported anyone either. I would only do so if someone was continuously sending me abusive and threatening messages.

I agree. I mean there would be exceptions in extreme cases certainly.

Excuse me. Are you someone that's arguing beside me for less government control... or do you typically take the stance to accumulate more power to that institution?

What does this mean, let alone have to do with the discussion we were having?
Oh, nothing, just your typical disingenuous shifting.
 
i dont ignore anybody with the function, i just ignore them when i see their posts by not bothering to read them.

I guess @Palis heads up my list of Beri'd lames
 
nobody, i dont mind differing opinions

Ive been shitposting since AOL chat rooms in the 90s. ive learned to filter the absolute nonsense

Let's see what's the situation these days.
This list has significantly improved my forum experience.

My list is the like the Bizarro version of this one, though perhaps slightly shorter.

If it worked in reverse, and there was like a "non-ignore list," most of Thuriasz's list would be on mine.

You told me I'm wrong about centralization being left-wing. Either you should be agreeing with me about dis-empowering government more than you actually let on, or you're supposing that granting more power to government isn't the same as centralizing power. If its the latter than you've gone full retard, where words have no meaning anymore.

And just to tie it in with the National Socialist German Worker's Party, did they advocate for more government control, or less? Were they actually flaming free market cuckoo birds?

What I said was that centralizing of power isn't strictly left-wing. Then you went on one of your normal incoherent tangents.

Unlike you I don't view power centralization as necessarily bad. Can you even try to be honest?
