2. You won't be able to see them at the get together. They are on ignore. Just don't sit
on what looks like an empty chair.

3. I don't even know who I have on ignore
I've never seen the little black ignore fonts in any threads. They must have disappeared somehow.

4. Depends on the ignored person.
Reactions could range from "I'm sorry, were you under the mistaken impression that you exist?" on down.

6. I would say "Nice to meet you,I'm James/Sky"
If they were rude to me or wish to act like turds then that is their problem.
It's just a board.

7. My dear arcadian!
Well, since I don't have anyone on ignore...

But there are some folks here who don't care much for me...and it's conceivable that they could show up at a party I might go to...

I've wondered how that would play out!

It would certainly be interesting...:P

8. I think it would go something like this:
"Hi Midlo, how are the quints?"

9. I would punch them in the face, trash the place, storm out, and 'ignore' every other
DUer at the party for including a person I don't approve of.

Either that, or behave like a properly-socialized adult. (The 4th drink is generally the tipover point...)

:)

10. I think it depends why I put them on ignore in the first place.
General stupid, insipid stuff...no biggie. I would be as nice to them as I would be to anyone else there.

If it was someone who attacked me over and over and over for no discernible reason? FOADIAF.

14. Buy them a Coke, teach them to sing in perfect harmony.
Actually the only people I have on ignore are posters from a certain forum that bothers me, and I only put them on ignore so their threads wouldn't keep popping up on the Latest page. I have nothing against them personally, so there'd be no problem. I'm just too nice a guy.

30. I enjoy yours, too,
and there is absolutely nothing wrong in being protective of a fellow DUer, especially one as dear as BB.

Nice catch ..................

37. I would be cordial.
I don't have anyone on ignore, but that person may be very cool in person. I would give them a chance.

40. Cockpunch, then a knee to the face,
Edited on Mon May-18-09 11:35 AM by sammythecat
then another cockpunch, push 'em to the ground and deliver several kicks to the face and ribcage. Then I'd flick my cigarette on the floor and get a drink.

I mean, unless it was a guy. Then I'd probably turn my back and ignore him in an obvious fashion.
