    Sorry, it must be the flu, but it took me five re-readings to understand what the hell you were saying. :)

    Even though I have no use for the new feature, I'm all in favor of it being made permanent, if only to be spared all of the tears of outrage over spam. Teh Baba must be the best damn troll on this board though. From unhinging Borgs to this latest incident, he really seems to be able to drive people batshit crazy almost effortlessly.

    As for the rep system, I don't know about that. I never really paid attention to what went on about it. I just like to see the squabbles over it. It adds an awful lot of drama and twisted panties to the board and for that reason alone I like it. :bergman:

    I get that a lot, clearly communicating is not my strong point.

    Same here.

    Baba eh? Seems all variety of members are taking credit/placing blame for the expanded ignore feature happening.

    Well you didn't miss much but the rep changes refute your claim of favoritism.

    Seriously, we now have an option everyone has wanted for a long time now.

    Quit bitching about it.

    I'd have to give Starguard more credit than Baba. We've had Baba here for a long time, but Starguard came along and vastly exceeded him with the amount of spamming. Starguard brought the situation much more to a head than Baba did. At least Baba kept it to a more tolerable and manageable level.

    But really, I might have to give you, Liet, and 14thDoctor more credit than Starguard and Baba. When you guys started necrobumping so many old threads, it was the last straw and so we got the new hack.

    Thanks! :techman:

    Maybe that is why they're bitching.

    Anything that expands the ability of posters to manage their own WF experience and issues is fine by me. :techman:

    Come a little bit closer
    You're my kind of man
    So big and so strong
    Come a little bit closer
    I'm all alone
    And the night is so long

    Anyone remember this one?

    The gauntlet was thrown down over the spam.

    Another time rep came in handy (although nobody cares about it... yes, nobody). The spam after this quickly subsided.
