    Go ahead....keep ignoring me...but you are just showing everyone how your victim act is just a troll of it's own.

    Plus, it just looks completely ridiculous to stamp your feet and demand people to not respond to you on a BBS, which exists for discussion, and in not only a public forum, but a public forum where no one will give two farts what you want, nor do they have to.

    Frankly, you look like a fool. :(

    Okay, I don't get it.

    So why are you refusing to use the ignore feature?

    That it is but it still doesn't explain his need to have the last word which is why he keeps responding.

    Must have been abused as a child.

    Anyways.....

    Isn't it about time to un-stick this crap thread and let it die?

    Usually, it's one of two things.

    Someone simply can not stand to not know what people might be saying about them, even if it causes them distress to know for sure.

    Or, it's the pride issue. Either they have fallen for the troll's pre-emptive manipulation of "You're a coward if you use ignore" thus ensuring the victim will never do the one thing that works 100% to wrest away their power....or it's "Why should I have to use ignore and let them get away with it without repercussions" which is a point I suppose...but a foolish one as the best way to beat any troll is to take away their power to get to you in any way.

    But no one ever listens to that advice although it is truly the only effective method that works.

    So put them on ignore.
    So put them on ignore.

    When you could simply put them on ignore and never have to see their posts, threads, or reps, and you don't, it can only be inferred that you're whining.

    You still haven't explained why you never put them on ignore.

    Not gonna lie. I love the rep comments. It's kind of exciting to see how many people like (or dislike) my post enough to click that button and give me points. :techman:

    Or you'll do what?

    IGNORE ME? :lol:

    Nothing would make me happier.

    But you keep posting and people will keeping responding. Your only solution is to leave.

    Or die in fire, whichever you prefer.

    Whoa, I missed this post. Where was that person when you and Tasvir were leaving nasty rep comments about my family and other not-so-nice topics my first week here? You're not a kind, gentle person, you're a cunt. :lol:

    That's what I've been saying. The desires of the majority were ignored in favor of a few repwhiners.

    Put the rep system back like it was and leave it alone. :mob:

    I'm sure Albert will be along shortly to neg this post. That's cool! His negs now have a neutral value and don't mean jack or shit. :moon:

    Ok, the bitching on both sides about the recent rep change has been annoying as fuck (those of you happy that negs mean nothing now, SHUT THE FUCK UP already whenever those unhappy bring it up; those of you unhappy about it, stop bringing it up so damn often!), but this really needs to be quoted:
