Most people do have him on ignore and by ignoring him the only time I see anything he writes is when someone quotes him. Since not every post he makes is quoted the vast majority of his garbage I'll never have to read. When he is quoted I scroll past. Everyone else should do the same and eventually he'll have no one to play with.

There is still a point. I have him on Ignore so I don't unconsciously respond to him. Even if I f-ck up and respond to some poster who quotes him I'm not feeding his ego by engaging with him.

flag is the obnoxious kid brother so desperate for attention he keeps throwing pebbles against the window while you're making our with your girlfriend. The last thing you want to do in that situation is respond to him, even if it's to whip him. Move the car. And anyway, you shouldn't be making out so close to your house.
 
Re: Nice Planet: Screw It, I'm Outta Here

I don't get the whole debate about putting someone on ignore, or why anyone would even go to the trouble to do it.

I used to read the comic strips in my daily paper, and there were at least a half dozen or more that I couldn't stand. I just skipped over them (scrolled past them with my eyes). I never considered it a great burden to me that the paper continued to put them in my edition or that I had to look past them.

Is it really hard to just scroll past the posts of a poster?

I've never done it. Does it just put a blank spot where the post was, or don't you even know he posted? I will admit that if there was a blank spot there, I'd be curious what it said, so that might be worse for me.

You get the header which includes the poster's name and then:

This message is hidden because FlagDUDE08 is on your ignore list.

The bottom 2 lines are clickable actions. View Post makes only the one post visible. I'll occasionally do that and immediately regret it.

It would be better if it simply removed all reference to the post and disappeared him, since that is the aim.

If you are willing to pay for it, you can get the ignore function enhanced by Medline Plus, where his posts display as black lesions.

You guys do know you don't have to respond to every post, right? You don't even need to use the ignore feature. Just scroll on by. It isn't that difficult.

Some of us are weak. We need the help. :)
 
Re: Nice Planet: Screw It, I'm Outta Here

Some of you are taking your preoccupation with me to an unhealthy level if you've spent the last two pages talking about me. Go play a round of disc golf or something.

Probably a bunch of drunk retards who couldn't pass the police academy test. But enough about Flaggy's family reunions.

Sorry but sitting on quadrillion-dollar endowments while tuition outpaces inflation 10:1 means there’s a massive problem. Kids come out of college now with six figures of debt.

Higher ed has been commoditized. Companies like this Mindtap are becoming more pervasive. These are the scumbags who were chased out of for-profit colleges during the Obama years. Now they’ve found a way to screw the students in a more discrete way.

And the societal pressure that one NEEDS to go to college to be ANYTHING in life....the world needs ditch-diggers, too. There's a ton of money in HVAC, for example, and you don't necessarily have to go to college for that.
