I dont’ get this rule change at all. It was this benign little rider that I don’t recall anybody getting up in arms about ever. Is it just a concession because we can’t call each other fucknuggets anymore? ---

The only person who’s ever been on my list was Zenster, who has since been banned, so I’m OK with 'fessing up. He got on there when I realized that I’d been avoiding cooking threads because of his “I am the God of All Things Food and Whosoever Disagrees With Me Shall Be Attacked” attitude. The threads got a lot more fun when his crap didn’t show up. ---

Question for those with one or more on your ignore list – what’s it like? If an ignored poster is subsequently quoted, does the board delete the quote as well? Do you get lost in some conversations where you didn’t know what someone was referring to? Do you see when someone posted, but not their content, or is it a complete never-mention removal? ---

I tried it, but it still shows the posters name, and dammit I am too curious, even about the anal orifices! ---
