re-evaluating my stance on the "ignore feature"
Does it ever feel like the same people follow you for months just to clash with you?

I had my objections to the feature, but sweet buddha, I am reconsidering.

1. I've heard of this "stalking" business, very creepy.
But the only 2 people I ever put on ignore just talked too much in general. :rofl:

2. Wow - I guess I just don't venture out enough to have
people intentionally want to clash with me. They must fear your intellect :)

3. I figure anybody who I find myself thinking "oh fuck, not so-and-so again" over is ignore-worthy
I don't ignore people for disagreeing, but I do ignore them for being disagreeable.

4. Good reason. You're now on my Ignore.
If you respond, you'll only look silly.

12. Yeah, like you're going to miss out on a LM post, Vlad.
Your thought processes are Machiavellian at times.

9. Fortunately, not often
but sometimes, I think people are oversensitive to it.
I once had a guy I'd interacted with maybe three times accusing me of stalking him.
I didn't even remember who he was, I had to do a search going back a YEAR to find the two other instances we'd disagreed so I'd remember :crazy:

13. there's one person that i wondered about but i think she just doesn't work and is always online
who knows

i don't worry about it

on another site i was being harassed with pm's which makes it pretty obvious that i'm the one targeted, i basically just stopped going there, who needs it
