Actually, I would hope to never make an "ignore" list...but I suppose it's inevitable nowadays.

I use it for people that are negative all the time.

One way to turn a negative into a positive is to never see anything the constantly negative types post ever again. beer

I think I have 3-4 guys on ignore. One for his sale ads every month using Mopars for profit only. The other guys not because I don’t want to read their posts but because I wouldn’t offer any needed advice or when I did get 10% off Summit coupons 6-7 times a year I would rather help others.

I've never used it. Most of the ____ on here leave once they have nothing else to bicker over or someone to bicker with they get bored and move on. Just have to wait it out.

When I first got on this site years ago there were 10+ people who came on here to fight every evening and nothing else. All gone now.

Re: For the first time ever since joining Moparts...... - 07/28/20 11:57 PM


I've been aware of the feature for a long time, just never felt a need to use it.

I actually had a worse problem with someone years ago, Zippy was a mod then. I don't recall the member but it all started over me saying I had problems using poly LCA bushings in my wagon and I could actually get the LCA to move front to back when it was unloaded. This was before everyone had a camera on their hip, so I couldn't take a quick video of it. When he couldn't get a rise out of me on the board, he took it to emails.

Doc is more like that hemorrhoid that keeps flaring up. After a long day at work, you just want to take a load off and put your feet up, but, nope. There's that hemorrhoid flaring up again. Got tired of the flare ups and decided to use some preparation h.

Nice to be able to relax again. biggrin

You have to be logged in.

Then click on the about to be ignored user name.

This will appear, just click the 'ignore' button.

It is a true case of 'ignore a person or 3 as you wish is bliss'.

No, more like, I thought the UN-moderated side was geared towards politics.

I like Doc.
Compared to about 90% of the others here, he has personality.
There are some real dullards on this site. Guys with far more smarts than humor. Doc is funny. There is value in that.
Intelligence is great but sometimes it is nice to be entertained.
I've spent most of my life surrounded by people that are slow to get the joke, clueless to sarcasm and just plain boring
I try to seek out people that are fun to be around.

This is an upside to being on a ignore list, I get to sincerely speak my mind, like using "pusillanimously" , and not have to deal with all the below the belt replies by any Dr's about "drivel". up

Now don't anyone quote me here, heaven forbid anybody have to read a thought that is divergent from those who are above scrutiny. biggrin

But on a serious note, Neil ya ever might think that some dont ask tech questions because many wont answer the question?

Its either what they have done or telling you not to spend your money your way. Weather a certain type cam or using an iron head, hard to get good answers at times when one states there PLAN and others dont embrace that persons vision but rather try to alter it.

Re: For the first time ever since joining Moparts...... - 07/30/20 05:05 PM

Yes, some questions can be easily answered with the search function as they have been asked many times. Those who have answered those same questions before are probably thinking "great, this question again" and just may be not in the mood to go there.

Some questions have no single right answer, but multiple answers that work and that's when the my way is best bickering starts.

I can think back years ago when there where a handful of people on here that came here to argue with others and nothing else. Those people made a lot of other good people bail on this site and their knowledge went with them. Those are the types that should be encouraged to behave better or leave.

It may sound odd, but this is the very reason why I do like your posts (and dare I say have respect for the author?). Not that you're wanting to crack skulls, but because you don't pussyfoot around. A guy I used to work with (and became friends with) was as subtle as a boot to the head, but there was never any doubt where you stood with him, or how he felt about something. It turned a lot of people off, but I loved it and found it kinda funny how he could make millennials squirm (oh, he was 68 at the time)

I don't have the desire to fight everyone, so, just easier to ignore. Gotta choose your battles, no?

I don't have the desire to fight everyone, so, just easier to ignore. Gotta choose your battles, no?

Gotta choose your battles, no? Very True.

I actually thought my confrontational days were over until I got the goods on my cat killing neighbor killing my cats. I approached him with more respect then he deserved BUT neighbor stuff can get stupid and out of hand real fast.

Which goes back to, Gotta choose your battles, Yes?

I had to write this to my nephew to get him to call me last week.

I know folks here are OLD, im old but not too old to still crack open some heads when needed.



It may sound odd, but this is the very reason why I do like your posts (and dare I say have respect for the author?). Not that you're wanting to crack skulls, but because you don't pussyfoot around. A guy I used to work with (and became friends with) was as subtle as a boot to the head, but there was never any doubt where you stood with him, or how he felt about something. It turned a lot of people off, but I loved it and found it kinda funny how he could make millennials squirm (oh, he was 68 at the time)

The problem is, this forum should not IMO be just a version of survival of the fittest, meaning those intimidated by fear or bravado, should not be self censoring because they are adverse to getting slammed for speaking their piece. The problem is the above protection, does not apply IMO when being just arrogant, or outright stupid ( to be blunt), or inciteful. This forum does not work well for EVERYONE's interest if it just becomes an internet cage match. It might be entertaining, and not boring, but I think many here have higher goals, and we all know of other sites that have devolved to meet those needs, and so be it. Those that can't face the claim here of maybe being arrogant, stupid, or inciteful, etc, should utilize the ignore button as they see fit. They know best what criticism/scrutiny their ego will allow.

Cat killers (ANY animal abusers) deserve a special place in hell. Hopefully legal action has been taken. Maybe he'll get covid and die a slow death.

Anyway.......

Back to my friend.

As I said, we worked together for awhile. He had gone on vacation, and during a slow time at work we decided to text him and ask if he missed us at work. We got the following picture texted back with a big HELL NO underneath it. laugh2

I actually agree with alot of that JCC, this... but I think many here have higher goals, and we all know of other sites that have devolved to meet those needs, and so be it.

Ya got to remember the core of this site is for gear heads, and yes of all types.

99% here would be cigarette smokers and youd be in the 1% cigar smoker group

At the same time if I really wanted the "Baller" drama, this isnt the place for the real hard core.Many other sites for that too.

Sorry to go off topic, but I recently read an article on Drive (said car guys) and it wasnt mopar friendly, then I looked at thee staff page, go figure. I wasnt shocked then.


So I guess we all just got to try to get along here.Or not.
