| | Posted: | | | | Hi there,
just wanted to let everybody know that it is possible to block users on the forums individually.
So if you don't like a certain person or what he is saying while executing his right of "freedom of speech" (for instance say "meerupps", just an example) you can yourself block this user and you will not see anymore messages by him or her ofcourse ("meerupps" was just an example).
Best regards!
Select "my profiler" from the top and then "Blocked users" from the left... | | | | Last edited: by Izo |

| | Posted: | | | | Sounds like a continuation of people having a go at this meerups guy. OK, he's a tool, but a lot of the people having a go at him are the same ones that have 'told me off' for doing exactly what they are doing when I've had arguments with others in the past.
This is obviously nothing but adding logs to a fire and should be locked.
Maybe I too should start posting fiction from the bible if that's what it takes.
(obviously if you hadn't included the name of a person "as an example" this thread would be completely different) | | | | Last edited: by samuelrichardscott |

| | Posted: | | | | I guess it's time i brought this out Actually i find blocking ppl to be an easy way out. I prefer the creeping out and the general annoying the crud of someone a far more entertaining way to deal with this  |

Maybe I should not have mentioned his name. If a moderator wants me to change it, I will. If you all just ignored him instead of retaliating he wouldn't have responded. Don't get me wrong, I've retaliated myself etc. and it feels good, I'm just a bit amused at the people who immediately come out with "Stop the fighting. Lock this thread NOW" in threads where I have been an arse (and there have been many) are generally the same ones taking part.  | | | | Last edited: by samuelrichardscott |

I think I found a perfect way of ignoring him, and thought maybe others would like to do the same. I agree I maybe should have left his name out... | | | | Last edited: by Izo |

Yeah, that cute panda is always causing trouble.
 Ooooh Yes, gained at least 20 pounds because sweets she's throwing around in the forum. Sometimes it's even very hard to find the mud-slinging contest under all the sugar coating. That can be REALLY annoying,  | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| | Posted: | | | | What's all this about a panda? I think I'm missing part of the conversation here!  But I put the blocking feature to good use to filter out annoying people. Perhaps it's someone I'm blocking. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

| | Posted: | | | | I am fairly sure that Mark was kidding. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

I am fairly sure that Mark was kidding. I'm fairly certain you are correct! If I ever decided to use the blocking feature, Kathy would be one of the last to go!  Sorry, should have made that more clear that I was joking. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

How do we know that you're not joking now? Huh huh huh? Because it's KATHY! Who could hate her?  Seriously, Kathy is awesome! I wish she was the mother of my children. I'm quite serious about that too. Say the word Kathy and they'll be on the first flight out of Portland. You just can't give them back! | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.
