This is the most sensible thing this poster has ever said.
Here’s a troll for the King of Rock and Roll.
Someone has officially made my ignore list. I’m not wasting time listening to someone who uses the phrase “beta cuck” with a straight face. I’m just worried clicking ignore will become addictive.
If the ignore function worked better, I could see this. But there is such a big flaw in it (being able to see the ignored poster in quotes from other people). This is what made me not use it at all.
I was on one site where they upgraded from about what we have here to a box of bells&whistles. That design turned ignore into utterly-erase, which was kind of almost as bad. I would read a post that had had quotes by someone I had on ignore and the quotes were wholly gone. They would be making comments that were responses to nothing I could see. Or tweet-like posts that were commenting on a post above of which there was no sign, making the post look like a non-sequitur reply to the visible post above.
I kind of like the vote arrows that ars uses in their story comment sections, where too many downvotes (I think around a net -20) will collapse an offending post (which can easily be popped open and reclosed right in place and attached a “favored comment” badge to highly-upvoted comments. There could be room for abuse in such a system, but it certainly has its appeal.
The misogyny on this board wears me the fuck out. Why did i even open that cosby thread?
Don’t scroll up in this one. You’ll get more of the same.
Because you are a masochist? 
I think there is a point after which it is a lost cause and counterproductive to engage with the same people over the same issue time and again. All it’s going to accomplish is giving you stress.
Me, too. I didn’t open it.
You’re overestimating the anger and investment needed to post a two sentence dismissal of someone profoundly stupid on a board with a mission to educate.
“One of us. One of us.” 
I doubt you would find it addicting. If you can willingly put up that you want to talk to Trump supporter on Facebook, then you’ve got little to worry about in creating a bubble.
Good luck Spice.
I couldn’t do it. Because every time I was in a thread and I saw “this post ignored” (or whatever it said), curiosity would get the better of me and I would have to “unignore” post so I could see what they were saying.
I admit it! I’m weak! I don’t have the discipline it takes to use the ignore function properly.
Hats off to those who do though. 
Some of the posters here say stuff that is occasionally offensive but otherwise too entertaining to ignore, but there is a certain consistently derisive tone in some people’s posts that makes me think they are not good human beings. I’m learning to pick my battles.
Yeah, I just tried it, and it still says his name and shows that he made a post, so I’m not sure the point of it all. It’s still a solid reminder that the person exists, which is depressing in and of itself.
I used to think this board was really misogynistic, but after dealing with some of my own stuff, I’ve been able to more objectively observe that it’s really down to a handful of posters, usually the same people over and over ad nauseam, with a bunch of other people telling them they’re full of shit. Of course, they usually love to congregate around rape threads because nobody should ever talk about rape without periodic reminders that women are lying bitches.
It’s like heroin. Start out slow and cautious and don’t overdo it, and everything will be just fine.
Is your role model Pat?
Luckily, I picked vhs cuck. It sucks to be on the losing side of a cuck format war.
Every time I see someone using the word “cuck” seriously I find it extremely helpful, in that it tells me that 1) that person is a major asshole and 2) they have a weird, slightly-too-intense viewpoint on masculinity and sexuality that suggests some serious underlying issues.
To me, it’s like, ‘‘Oh, I’m dealing with someone with the emotional maturity of a thirteen-year-old.’’ That’s what it feels like. It reminds me of some kind of child slang, like the kids on X-Box Live who sling homophobic slurs at grown up gamers because we have actual responsibilities that interfere with our ability to master Call of Duty.
They know that if they are called a “cuck”, or even worse, a “beta cuck” (can you have an “alpha cuck”?) then that would hurt them emotionally.
So, they think that by throwing that word at anything that they don’t like, they can hurt the things that they do not like.
But the reason it’s so sad is that nobody cares but them. I’m quite sure that 95% of the world’s men don’t give a rat’s ass whether some emotionally stunted man-child thinks they are weak. So it’s this weirdly self referential insult that has no meaning to anyone else.
