“Do not post to me”
Free Republic ^ | 8/28/07 | Admin Moderator

Posted on 08/28/2007 5:47:37 PM PDT by Admin Moderator

We've received many requests from freepers requesting that other freepers not post to them. There are several problems with this.

1. It's impossible for us to enforce.
2. We don't have the time to enforce these requests.
3. We don't have the software to keep track of these requests.
4. Thick skin helps.
5. Ignore the poster, if you don't reply, they won't reply.

Free Republic does not need a bozo filter, bozo filters are for wimps.

Final note: Trolls, troublemakers, disruptors, forum pests, malcontents, RINOs, liberals, stalkers, et al, would continue posting to (harassing) someone after being asked to stop. Conservative FReepers would not.

bozo filters are for wimps.

Since your comment indicates no openness to discuss the matter, I will not fritter away my time in advocating this excellent and democratic mechanism. I will simply say that you are wrong.

And one other thing on your contempt for "bozo filters"...

Do you see nothing ironic in someone who has a ZOT button suggesting that those who would like a mere bozo filter are wimps?

"So, how fast do these topics soar to, say, 1000 posts?"

The Viking Kittens and the RKBA are pretty good Bozo filters.

"What do mean? I must adjust my vertical to horizontal before I can get on my computer."

Could someone stop by Thomas' house and set his monitor up right? It seems to have gotten tilted to one side again.

That is agressive self-passiveness, with a dangerous psychotic trend to communicate with the masses. :^)

I kinda like to operate ~my own~ bozo filter.

I don't want to shut anyone up....I'd just like it to be easier for me to decide to not listen. Very gentle. Very democratic. Very libertarian...people can have the widest possible latitutde to shoot off thier mouths...and increasingly be talking to the wind if they are so mindless that others -- acting independently -- are chosing to turn them off.

Is this the BOB you speak of?"

No. However, I take this as a compliment:

"I must advise you, however, to consult your local psychotherapist before seriously considering such a potentially mind bending endeavor."

"Or you could just talk to Bob."
I read this as meaning that I'm almost as helpful to unraveling your thorny mental problems as is your local bartender.
