I also just don't read a lot of posts, not so much avoiding the people as just knowing it'll be the same old broken record and/or same old nastiness and dishonesty.

but I've trashed the entire GD-P forum so the only time I have to trash threads is when one of their denizens crawls out of the cesspool to post in a grown up group.

If I've clicked it and thought it was a dumb op - or the title is boring/doesn't interest me I throw it in the trash.

Try to be civil with everyone, sometimes quite a challenge. When that quits working for me, I will take a long vacation.

The number goes up when the 'outrage of the day' floods the board with the same topic posts, again, and again, and again. Enough is enough; off to the dung heap.

People are entitled to their opinion on this forum. Doesn't mean I have to trash them.

There's no reason to click on and read a thread if you know it's going to be a cesspool.

Coincidentally, that's the same as the number of people I've placed on "ignore".
