Thats how I feel. And if someone were ever not nice, I just brush it off as a bad day or the like. Everyone deserves a second chance. lol
And if they are really not that nice chances are they will be banned or go away. lol

I don't see a reason to. If a person was that rude, I would report them to Karen. People have their bad days, so you shrug it off and wait for an apology. lol

Haven't used it yet, but not saying I wouldn't if someone kept harrassing me or being rude.

There is one person on my ignore list who would not quit harrassing me when I asked to be left alone/not to have contact with that person. Other than that if I don't care for someone's posts I just don't read them.

I've never used it and most likely, never will. If I didn't care to read somebody's threads/posts, then I just wouldn't.

I never thought I would have to use it but I had to stop myself from having a huge argument by putting someone on my ignore list and they are still there.

I have a question though ... if you put someone on your ignore list does that just make them unable to contact you or can you also not read their posts?

I haven’t used it yet. Hopefully I won’t need to. But I do have a question, if you put someone on your ignore list, do they stop pming you or stop pming you and you don’t see their post

EDIT- I just posted and then saw .Sarah post.

Like Kay, I have one person on my ignore list. I have no interest in hearing what this person has to say. Everybody else, I love dearly and will never be on my ignore list, ever!

I use it, but I have only 2 people on it, who ideas and mine are polar opposites on every single issue, I have them on my ignore list to avoid getting myself riled up.

If you have someone on ignore, it still shows that they post, and you still receive messages from them, but it just says "message from USENAME. This person is on your blocked list. Unblock" or something similar, then there is a link for you to read the message.

I don't have anyone blocked, nor do I intend to unless I was being harassed. If a situation gets to such an extreme point where I consider blocking them, I will contact Karen and let her know what is going on to see if it can't be resolved that way.

Otherwise any other time I've ever had a problem with anyone we've worked it out privately. I REALLY respect members who can talk to me privately if we ever have any problems regarding each other, or a misread post!

Just tried it out :D this is what shows up when somebody posts...

"This message is hidden because USERNAME is on your ignore list."

I think of exactly the same, I would never use one... ever.

Never used it, hoping to never need to :D But I know it's a possibility as I came close to using it on someone who was harrassing me - but that person finally left me alone.

Never used it.

Long ago, when I was learning how differnt things worked, I tried it out of curiosity. I placed 1 person on it. At the time, I really DID hate to read this person's posts. But I found that I was simply too nosy NOT to read them. LOL

I would probably only use the feature to prevent PM harrassment.

Hehe i am the same Jen :D, sort of defeats the purpose of an ignore list.

Nope, I have not used it. I don't plan on using it either.

I was ON the verge of using it when someone called my dog ugly through private message. But now I can just brush it off and ignore the person. I am thinking of using it at the moment because I feel I am not getting my proper respect from a member as I am giving them. But I am leaning more towards no and willing to give them JUST one more chance.

Suki Wingy
01-31-2006, 07:44 PM
OMG, that's horrible! I forgot if I posted or not, but I have one person on mine, and every time someone quotes them and I read it, I think, "I really rather I had not read that." so I keep them on there

:eek: :eek: :eek: What's wrong with their eyes!?!?!?

Anyways, I've used it once, but I removed it after that person stopped posting as much, and stopped harassing me.

What? Something's certainly wrong with that person - I agree with CathyBogart - something's wrong with their eyes :eek:

Anybody that thinks any dog is ugly is wierd in my opinion. But of course sassy is very cute and you must know that so obviously its jealousy or something so just ignore it.

Yeah, I told my mom and she said the same exact thing. I agree. Anyone who think ANY dog is ugly is weird.

Pretty much the same here although there's no one on my list now.

I think some people just like to call other's favorite things ugly/gross/stupid, etc. to get that person riled up. People have called my dogs ugly before, and I think they're pretty darn cute myself!

What is WRONG with those people??!!! :eek: :rolleyes: ;) I think Sim, Ki, and Nala are some of the cutest dogs I've ever seen:)

I don't use my ignore list unless I absolutely have to, which is really rare. :)

Absolutely not. First, there is no easy button in real life. Second, if we pushed the button on somebody like Bill Clinton (for a recent famous figure whom many people had issues with) we'd miss out on a lot of good things too. Not only that, but don't you want to keep tabs on what people you hate have to say?
The ignore features remind me of hurricane Katrina. My roommate didn't like seeing about it so she changed the channel and acted like it wasn't there. What do people matter if they are out of sight? That's the ignore button.
Now for the IM's I get from people I don't know, I minimize them. They don't pop up in front of my webpages but I can still have access to them.

ARE YOU KIDDING???!???! :eek: Can you say "eye doctor"? Simba, Nala, and Kiara are all cute and nothing will ever change that! I especially love Simba. I don't know why. But he is awesome.

Unfortunatly i have just added a few more "people" to my ignore list.

I wouldn't ever consider it. If something does get that bad, I would report it to Karen.

I can't believe that anyone has ever called anyone's dogs ugly on here!!!!:eek: That is absolutely horendous of them! I agree, they REALLY need to go to the eye doctor or something!

I've used it once temporarily, for my own benefit more than anything else. This person's posts were upsetting me yet I couldn't seem to resist looking, so I placed them on ignore for awhile and it was enough, I was able to leave their posts be and thus not get aggravated ;).

02-26-2006, 08:46 PM
Um I am new so I don't quite no about everything yet so from what everyone says I would probly never need to use it. :)

I can't belive some people would ever say any of your dogs are ugly!! They are all beautiful, great dogs in my eyes. I think whoever says that are just jealous that you've got such great dogs.

I've never used it, probably never will. When I first came here I didn't like alot of people when they posted that I'm doing something wrong, probably because I knew they were right!! I've changed my views on things here since I've become more educated on certain things.

I have come across many nasty people here on the wonderful internet, but luckfully I have the self control to not make things some disasterous fight. Unfortunately, I have found others truly don't. That's alright. Even then I do not need an ignore button, I simply tell them I will not respond until they become civil enough. ;) And if they continue to keep it up, all you have to do is report them.

Same here. :D It's sometimes hard to follow the flow of the topic being
talked about if you use it. Yea, I'm just to nosey :p

I've used it once before, but, found myself still reading the person's posts...I didn't so much have a problem with the person's posts really...just the way they talked directly to me. Too much drama from one human being, but, not a problem anymore, so, the ignore feature hasn't been used in a long time.

I haven't yet, and hopefully won't have to. Haven't run into anyone too rough in my short time here. I think the only way I'd use it would be if someone was 'abusing' the pm system or something... since otherwise anything I didn't like would be easy enough to avoid or just leave alone.
