What's the point of ignore lists?

[zimzum42]

methinks lech/spinners already has me on his! further proof for me it's him!

what's the point of going on a forum where people only toe a line you like?

Ignore lists have nothing to do with contrary opinions, just single-note obsessives like linford who make very little effort to seriously rebut points and resort to abuse rather than discourse

Whoooaaa hang on a minute - Kettle & Pot.

You can see it in the Room101 thread. linford can't justify his speeding so he makes some offensive remarks aout posters and their families. Scratch an internet argumentative, get a sociopath. Nobody insulted him, I certainly didn't, but his response was a foul tirade. If I want to hear mental deficients rant against the world I'll go and sit near the winoes at the bus station, until then linford and others like him are ignored. It's like tuning out care in the community.

Definitely spinner's style. Now for the litmus test.

Boris Johnson is doing a cracking job as Mayor of London.

lol

If anyone is in doubt that lech is Spinners, then they really ought to start a BoJo thread. Now, to find a person not on his ignore list who will start such a thread!

Dell Boy, I'm worried about your ignore list!

AfromO I can understand, but AIS and Patrick??

Spire, when you reach my age, you'll be the same as me. Too little time. And too much blood pressure. What's wrong with giving yourself a break from something that is entirely unsatisfactory?

Put it this way - if you were on a LEJoG, what wouldn't you give to sleep through Preston?

There is, of course, the other side to it. It's a brilliant (if amazingly trivial) hermetically sealed joke. One that makes me chuckle every time I see a whole page of Linf's posts reduced to 'this twerp is on your ignore list'.

What is the point in ban lists if those who ignore them keep re registering ?

Why were you banned again Spindrift ?

see! It's brilliant! I have absolutely no idea what he's on about!

Ha! That's for dellzeqq. Revenge for the Gaia thing. And I'll be hurt if you put me on your ignore list.

Ta for that TC

Ignore lists are for people who can't engage in a debate without losing their temper when it doesn't go their way - you know who you are

Mrs Pot, may I introduce Mrs Kettle?

(The speeding debate in Room 101 hasn't gone your way, and you got nasty as a result.)

Indeed, that's certainly one kind of people that I'd put on one.

It certainly hasn't gone your way or else it would have burnt itself out by now.

You conveniently ignore any points I make issue with so pot and kettle indeed.

As for nasty, I think I have been very restrained given your obtuse and sanctimonious attitude. If you didn't drop so much when you come and empty my bins, I'd not get anywhere near as annoyed with you

Boys,

there's not much point in importing a row from room 101 into another thread because there's a danger of the other thread going to room 101.
