at least this one does not seem to have the 'harassing' attitude that usually acompanies x after x just because someone cannot physically punch you in the lip

Interesting... For some reason or other I don't usually see posts from those pain in the everythings...
we are half way there then. ;) now if we can just remain invisible to the also ... after awhile they would have no one to post to or play x o's with

Okay, and not to argue, but your original statement said that people should be allowed to express whatever their opinion is. In general, I agree. But, if someone has put someone on ignore, I think it's consistent to also be shielded from that person's non-verbal commentary. That's the point of "ignore".
well there's that and the fact that xing or thumb downing becomes harrassment when you are awarded even though you posted only scripture...or on another thread and those magical little characters appear from the same person who was not even in the other thread
until you posted in it

I once had someone follow me just so they could x to their little hearts content. that was stopped thankfully

I will admit I have somewhat of a patience problem with glaring unbiblical rantings......how dare I

This is most likely a limit of the software the site is built on. Translation, it can't be changed.

But ignore is just that. Ignoring what they do. Not restricting what they do.

And "a major problem for a lot of members"? In the roughly 5 years this software has been in use this is only the 3rd complaint I've seen about this, and only one of them seemed truly upset.
good responses though :)

When I first signed on, I happened to innocently mention something nice about some 'Socialist' programs. I got accused of being a Marxist and Commie and other titles. I said something like 'gee you'd think I said God is dead or something' like Socialism would be worse than that, and someone actually said 'it is worse', lol.
If you or some other nice intentioned member ever gets insulted or called a name, hit the report flag with Forum name and post number, the Mods will look into it. Unfortunately, almost any Thread in any Forum can result in a showdown.
right. that's how I finally got rid of my admirer with the x penchant

there are some folks here who are like something lying in wait to pounce...basement dwellers all!

X is a legitimate symbol for Disagree.. I believe in freedom of Speech.. And disagreeing with someone is a freedom one should protect if one wants the truth to come out..

I don't play men. In reality however, my x on your post was meant to be funny. BUT!!! how do I know you are not raging inside?

you might be if you interpret that meme I posted as an attack. Honestly, perception goes a long way and I think yours is off as far
as the posts in this thread go

Far too serious in a thread like this for me :giggle:

Why do you need to imagine me raging or laughing or smiling or frowning or anything at all.. I don't spend much time wondering what emotions lay behind people who right forum posts.. I just deal with what they say and never worry about the emotions.. That's the best thing about communicating in a text based format.. You don't have to deal with the other persons emotions..

you might be if you interpret that meme I posted as an attack.
I have watched more South Park cartoons then.. well then i suspect most of the people in this forum have.. So i know little fat Eric and his personality more then most' so yeah making me out to be an Eric Cartman is an attack

Honestly, perception goes a long way and I think yours is off as far
as the posts in this thread go
And your perceptions are far off too and that's why you reacted to my post with an Eric Cartman meme projecting that perception of me.. Onto me..

In other news, I just added someone else to my ignore list :oops: :confused:

Having someone on ignore, is kinda like trying to understand someone speaking with their mouth full :unsure: :whistle:

Probably not going to happen, but it sure would be nice that once you ignore a person, for whatever reason, they can no longer put their x's or whatever on your post.

Barring that, I guess reporting continued harassment is reportable because some people here are a major pain in the ..... everything. :giggle:
Hi Niki, Jepethiel here.

Being new myself, and with #$@&-:#$?!'*" Paypal problems re subscribe. I have not much of an idea about what you are saying.

However, there is a Christian way to respond to all problems!

Rest on and depend upon God.

The Foolish will always do stupid things, but what they do ain't your problem, its theirs!
So sit back chuckle to yourself as to them proving they are foolish and get down to delighting in who our God is in His all majestic, infinite ways!

And Niki, spiritual immaturity shows up as concern over the trivial.
And you can consider that a rebuke FROM Jesus!


GROW UP INTO Jesus!
Stop complaining like your were a Hebrew in the Wilderness worried about what you feel, and you wounded pride!

Get over your selfish concerns and and mature into the woman Jesus intends you to be!
