What do you mean there's not an ignore option? Why can't you ignore it? Just don't click on it.
And you talk of civility, but you, as a newb, go onto someone else's thread and tell them it's crap and you don't want to see it.
Never did I say you have to like this guy's thread. But in the same measure, you don't have to go and trash his threads just because you think they're silly. Like I said, he has broken no rules. Last I checked, he has just as much right to make this thread, being that it's in the off-topic section, as someone that makes a thread about Mega Man.
I find it beyond belief that you can hijack someone else's thread and then turn around and cry foul. Don't throw stones from a glass house.
Guess we're doing this. Yay.
That's very nice that you can look at the number of posts that I've made and read status profiles. Congratulations. Clearly that's all the experience I have anywhere ever. This is sarcasm if you couldn't tell. It has no merit on anything I've said.
Also, don't put words in my mouth. I didn't say the posts were "crap". Did I say that? I'm sure I didn't say that. Nor did I ever directly address him. There's a way to speak of or suggest things to people politely and cordially without disrespect, opposed to spewing the vitriol contained in your first post. This is the very definition of civility.
You can also drop the dramatics. I did not "trash" his threads. Again, I did not call the threads "crap". No one broke a glass house or threw stones or whatever. No one even hijacked the thread. It was derailed by another user. I literally made a comment in response to this and for the first time, received a nice, informative response from an admin in return. I even learned a few tricks about the site's interface. I was plenty satisfied. Now there are comments in response from you, some about toilet paper, and others about worshiping our one true god Cthulhu.
I'm also aware you never said anyone had to like his thread. I'm pretty sure anyone who read what you typed is aware you never said anything about liking it. I don't get it.
No one is disputing rights about posting whatever. Anyone can do that and it's fine. And yes, even my avatar Mega Man can make a post after defeating Post Man. That's not, and never was the issue. This here simply tells me that, again, you missed the entire point of the original post.
You seem fairly keen on giving simple advice, and I'd hate to see you have to share it again. You could take your own sagely advice and simply not click the thread, ignore my response and be done, but I'm sure I'll see you again soon.
As for me? I know my compulsion will get the better of me and I'll just be
dying to click on this thread again.
Longingly awaiting your response with hugs and kisses,
