I just happened to look yesterday. Not sure what I did to annoy someone, but I feel badly that they felt it necessary.

(Yes, I'm a stupidly nice person way down deep.)

But don't be so hard on yourself. Drop the "stupidly" and you're just nice, period. And that's a GOOD thing, Will. More power to you!

First it was 3, then 4, then 3. Now I'm up to 5, with 6 blocking mail. I never send any pm's unless I get one.

'The Ignored' sounds like a good name for a band!

Yeah, I don't get the blocking mail thing either.

But I always thought a good name for a band was what they put on our Claymore mines in the Army: "Front Toward Enemy."

is what it is...

I see people who are way nicer than I am who have more ignores than I do...which, at this time, is only 3. How do they do it???


I can only conclude that I'm either not as badass as I think, or people see my user name and just skip over it altogether without having to use the ignore function.

I actually got my name from "Pipikaula", which is some Hawaiian beef dish.

I love the Hawaiian language. So melodic.

Why I chose to name myself after food...well, that's still a mystery to me.

is Pippi opening the barn door and hollering "SHUT YOUR GODDAMNED MOUTH" - I was a little kid and my dad had taken me to the theater to see the movie and I laughed my ass off as that was the first time I had ever heard a kid say a grown-up word.

,...I've never seen you as a badass. You do sometimes mix it up in the threads, so you'd think you'd have earned more ignores. But maybe having such a sweet name like pipi has spared you.

If it would make you feel better, I could put you on ignore.

Actually, I have never put anyone on ignore. If I don't want to read somebody's shit, I just skip it. Or I may read it just to confirm my opinion of the soulless mutherfucker.

Then go to your transparency page. That will show "Number of Star members ignoring me".

In your case, Ter, I don't think you have anything to worry about.
