How Many On Your Ignore List Have Been Tombstoned?

[SoFlaJet]

BOTH sides Clinton and Obama supporters. Now I know there are going to be a few people who will shame on us for having anyone on ignore-they haven't been in the same fights we have so step off

[AlCzervik]

1. i put trolls on my buddy list, not ignore and that way i can find out when they're

renditioned.

[MonkeyFunk]

41. I do the same thing

so far I've lost 31. I haven't checked it in weeks, so I'm sure it's more than that now.

2. Question:

How do you know if someone you have on ignore has been tombstoned?

I see people saying things like, "I was going through my ignore list today and so-and-so was TS'd" all the time. Do you have to go through and look at the profile of each person to see which accounts are still active?

[SoFlaJet]

5. Go to your MY DU

section and find your ignore list and click on each name-Of the 10 I have on ignore 1 has been TSed

[Lone_Star_Dem]

7. Thanks

That's what I thought but with so many posts about it I didn't know if maybe a graphic appeared in your list stating an account was no longer active. I wonder how people manage to keep up when they have 100's of people on ignore?

[SoFlaJet]

8. I tried for the longest time

and NEVER thought I'd ever have to use the ignore feature here on DU-I mean we're all friggin democrats right? Oh wait....nevermind

[Lone_Star_Dem]

9. The feature is there to help keep the peace

I ignore threads in mass. I find that works best for me and helps to cut down on the litter. I see no reason speak out about someone feeling the need to ignore a poster to make their experience at DU more pleasurable. If it works for you, or any other person here, then it's a good thing.

[Radio_Lady]

37. You mean "en masse" (sp?) or just folks from Massachusetts?

Just kiddin' -- but I cut down on the litter, too.

Except, there's always more litter.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

49. Yep that too.

:D

[gratuitous]

3. {Checks}

Every last one of them! There is nobody on my ignore list that hasn't been tombstoned.

And vice versa.

[DAGDA56]

4. I ignore nobody, and have never been tombstoned...

...probably because I am one very polite motherfucker...

[SoFlaJet]

6. DAGDA56 is not a familiar GD-P name to me

as I said you haven't been in the same fights that me and a few others have been in since January-or taken a strong position on any candidate-or maybe you have WTF do I know?

[DAGDA56]

10. Sorry? I'm not understanding...

...I've been on the board a long time...was sitting out the last few months, but still lurking (which is in my profile)...I have seen some rough things as well, and have tried to avoid taking anything personally. I am not trying to offend you or anyone else, and I don't flame much...I've got my opinions, support Obama completely, but am often guilty of forgetting the :sarcasm: icon.

[SoFlaJet]

13. that's what I figured

and no offense was meant DAGD-I just figured you hadn't been in the same threads that a lot of us have been fighting in-that's all...I guess I was right

[LSK]

39. and your explanation for me then?

:hi:

[aikoaiko]

11. Having an ignore list is much worse than being on someone's ignore list.

[michreject]

12. Don't have an ignore list

What's the point?

[ToeBot]

14. Not nearly enough! nt

[Breeze54]

15. 3 were tombstoned and are now deleted

cuke
sanskritwarrior
datavg

Thanks for reminding me to do some spring cleaning!

[paulk]

16. most of them, eventually

I'm thinking of putting you on there

;-)

[lapfog_1]

17. Wow.

70 out of 332.

I have an extensive ignore list.

21 percent have granite cookies.

edit to add... and there were at least another 8 or so that shocked me that they do NOT have some crappy pizza.

[uppityperson]

34. Are you ignoring me?

332 is a good sized list, wanted to check.

[lapfog_1]

35. no, apparently not.

I never had anyone on ignore until this primary season.

I do it now so that I

1. maintain normal blood pressure

2. don't spend an inordinate amount of time arguing with those who will not change their mind and they are unlikely to change mine.

3. So *I* don't receive a granite cookie because of an ill-timed angry response.

Anyway, I plan on taking everyone off ignore just as soon as we have an official (or presumptive) nominee. After that, then we'll see. I suspect that some will drop the subject and support our nominee... and the rest will go away.

I'm quite sure that I am on a number of ignore lists... but it doesn't bother me at all.

[shraby]

18. I have 4 on my list who've been tombstoned so far.

[flvegan]

19. None, thankfully.

I have one forced that I didn't want, and 3 that are simply trolls. Just because I don't want to read their drivel doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to post their drivel, so long as it doesn't openly break the rules.

[SoCalDem]

20. I never check.. I am hoping that once a candidate is secured, and the 7-day warning

period is past..that admin will "re-set" all the ignores to zero and we can all start over..

[BoneDaddy]

21. I fight with people almost daily

on this board and have not a single person on ignore. I don't care that much what people think of me.

[lapislzi]

22. I really try not to put people on Ignore

There are a few who just push my buttons and they had to go...but they are not bad DUers. They are just people with whose attitudes and modes of expression I have serious issue.

And I know they are still posting. I wish them well, but they need to stay out of my way.

[slampoet]

23. I don't have an ignore list. I'm not into ignorance.

[burythehatchet]

27. Quite the contrary, when one allows ignorant blather to consume even a small part of their

day, there really is no benefit that I can identify.

[Breeze54]

32. I'm not into ignorance either, that's why I have one.

;)

[LisaM]

24. I don't have an ignore list.

I think it's kind of childish. I don't like you! I'm going to pretend you don't exist! La la la la you're talking but I can't HEAR you.......

[slackmaster]

25. At one time it was all of them

I have since cleaned out my list.

[emilyg]

26. I have 2 on ignore

none TS'd - yet.

[Binka]

30. Hi Sweet Em!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

[shanti]

28. lots

but i clean them out every so often.

[GoneOffShore]

29. Not nearly enough.

And some longtime posters who have revealed their true anti progressive colors.

36. Damn I'm getting a headache

just reading that list

[Kingofalldems]

43. I'm shocked at a few of those names

Especially liberalnurse and Herman Munster. Was it freeperism or some other violation?

[pinniped]

44. LOL, one of those dudes are also on my list.

There is a 14.3% termination rate on mine.

38. what ignore list?

[Ghost in the Machine]

40. No ignore list here... I was shocked one day when I saw "ignored" respond to

one of my posts because I didn't think I had ANYONE on there... I had to look to see who it was... then after one exchange with him, I remembered *why* I put him on ignore... but I didn't put him back on after that...

I prefer to ignore people by just not responding to their posts. I'm sure I'm on quite a few ignore lists though. Does it bother me? Not in the least....

I've found that I can disagree with someone on one subject, but be in full agreement with them on 10 other subjects, so there's no reason to ignore, you just have to agree to disagree.... you know..; like grown-ups ... or something...

[politicasista]

42. 4 n/t

[Codedonkey]

45. Can't read this thread, I have you ignored...

Actually, I don't think it works like that, does it? :P

Blah, ignore lists are teh suck. At least here on DU I don't see the purpose. The place is pretty well monitored so if someone is just being flat out annoying (the only reason why I would ignore someone) then I'm sure they'd be dealt with quickly... And since I don't believe in ignoring people just because they have difference in opinions (no matter how stupid their opinion may be), I don't see any need to use such features.

Then again, even in less monitored and highly troll infested sites, I tend not to use block/ignore features because blocking tends to give equal satisfaction to people who are trying to get a reaction... Although, if I'm not mistaken, here on DU the other party isn't made aware, right?

[L0oniX]

46. At least 20% of those I have on ignore have been TS'd.

[crispini]

47. Nine, this time.

I usually check every few weeks and have at least four or five on there.

[hughee99]

48. I don't have anyone on the list...

but reading some of the discussions, I can see why people may find it useful. I don't mind reading their crap, I'll just ignore it on my own. A few months ago, someone sent me a rather unpleasant PM asking me a few asinine questions, but when I tried to respond, they had their PM blocked. That bugged the hell out of me. If you don't want to get PM's, don't send them.
