    I am ignored by half the forum members

    It has been mentioned that I am being ignored by half the forum members. This is from a poster that stated they were away for a month. Why that was significant is beyond my intellectual capacity to discern the reasons why individuals do what they do and announce it for all and sundry to see.
    A little like me writing this.

    At any rate, I have never ignored anyone as I feel no matter how idiotic , rude, ignorant, shameless,bigoted , racist, inflammatory or any other reason it is always of interest to me to read what everyone has to say.

    As Bill O'Reilly says, "what say you"?

    Who is Bill O'Reilly?
    When in doubt, run in circles, scream and shout

    I am the same. Despite no liking what some have said to me and others, I have yet to put anyone on my ignore list.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    A bit like pornography censors, us mods can't close our eyes. We have to read an awful lot of testicular loquation in the course of discharging our alloted role. Worse, we can't forcefully put the halfwitted tendency firmly in their place as we must maintain a certain distance from emotional involvement. So even when we're being even-handed adjudicators of over-heated debate, I'd just like you to know -you can't stop us thinking!!

    If people are genuinely deciding to ignore your posts, I think you should look at what you are saying and the way you are saying it. You could also consider objectively looking at the way you respond to posts that state a view you don't agree with.

    You could also try not calling people 'memebers' (sic.) I'm sure it means something unspeakable in the berber tongue!

    The Old Republic was a stupidly run organisation which deserved to be taken over. All Hail Palpatine!

    An obviously higher calling than the Bill O'Reilly who was being referred to. By far.

    Oh Spa, why the thread?

    I'm not ignoring you, but there are I do and I just don't mention it unless they are intent on constantly trying to get my attention. I really wouldn't care if somebody chose to ignore my input. I don't generally say offensive things, but its up to the individual. The best thing to do is not to care mate. Don't worry about it. Just make your points and let the responders decide. After all, we can't force people to read what we write can we?
