    No.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Actually it's more about having so many notifications from the little attention whore. I click notifications, and it's usually just yurt calling out from most the discussions I visit. And if he's banned of course he just makes a discussion. It's not that big of deal, outside of bugging me that I have a stalker, but it does make me want to do a little of this some times. Feeling physically shitty lately, when I look to the quotes for a little chat, only to have Yurt half the time is a little draining.

    try ignoring him without putting him on ignore


    what I do is answer them only when I feel like it


    if they are just tickling their little members by trying tp get my goat I ignore them


    if they are actually trying to make some idiot point ( I admit it rare) I see itas an opportunity to educate whomever is actually reading it .


    there are people who just read our stuff and never post


    hard to believe it but its true '

    these site provide people with facts who want to know what people are saying about an issue


    think abut it as your platform to state your beliefs about politics and teach them the FACTS behind why you believe what you believe.


    yurt is a tool


    yeah that works in two ways


    he is meaningless


    he is merely an opportunity to shut the stupid ideas down


    one you can ignore at any time you chose


    if you shut people off you miss the new memes


    those memes these days are coming straight from Russia it seems


    not putting people on ignore is how I spotted that there were foreign actors working the internets BEFORE the Russian involvement went public.


    you see the whole picture

    that doesn't mean you have to look at every individual stroke in the painting


    yaya yurt is but one stroke

    you can ignore that stroke individually when it meaningless to the whole picture



    so I say to yaya yurt


    stroke your tool


    you tool who strokes

    I just checked into the me vs Yurt discussion, and saw Trump Diva calling me too thin skinned for politics. Have they not seen my in your face, no shit, and straight to the point tell offs. Are these morons actually unable to tell my friendly discussions apart from the political head bashing here.

    Anyone think I should start a mock recipe discussion for the haters, in the war zone?

    Here's an example of recipes I'm thinking.

    Humble pie, for Yurt.

    1 pie shell
    1 block of cream cheese
    1 sleeping pill

    Crush up the pill, and mix it into softened cream cheese. Spread in a pie shell, and leave out sitting on the floor. Hopefully he'll come back to some snoozing mice, and some friends to keep him busy.

    unfortunately, this forum seems to relish troll behavior

    changing user names, not preventing ignored users from notifying you.

    hell, some (well, one really) of the mods I have had the misfortune to run into is incredibly childish. It really boggles the mind how that one particular poster became a mod

    the reason for that is because we have another feature called "forced Ignore" where us mods can.. welll.... make two people force ignore each other. And when we implemented that we took away the ability to view an ignored posters posts so that those on FI were 100% stuck.

    How come Yurt & Zappacrite are allowed to wage war again? Did their FI go away when the board crashed?

    My personal favorite is "turducken", and if you really want to put a fine point on it, "turduckens on fire!"
