I am honored to be on your homeschool ping list.

And I am honored that you wish to remain on it! So far, no one has asked to be removed!

[Victoria Delsoul]

Fantastic! Do it again.

Please add me to your homeschool ping list!

I certainly will add you!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Please keep me ON your "ping" list(s).

IMHO, it is better to wade through a dozen AVERAGE threads, than to miss one "FReeper CLASSIC."

Please PING ME! (I trust your judgment.)

Me too!! And!!... That would include DavidOsborne. I haven't had anything he has pinged me, be offensive.

WE can also send private freepmails to accomplish what this thread was for. I get the feeling, this was done to keep the pot stirred up. Cause you can JUST IGNORE FRIGGIN PINGS.. if you don't want to OPEN THEM!!

I'd have missed a ton of important (to me) issues, if people hadn't pinged me. There are times I just ignore them. I might be to busy,.. or the issue doesn't interest me. I don't think there is a "limit" on how many pings a person gets.

FRegards!

Please continue to ping me with your ping list unless it on a thread about ping lists. Under that circumstance, remove me from the ping list for only those threads about abuse of ping lists. In other words, ping me baby.

I was going to ping 66 Victorias but I think my pinging days are over because it wouldn't let me!

As long as we're griping here, one particularly obnoxious use of the ping list is when some darn fool who's behind in a one-on-one argument has to bring in backup via the Ping List. Usually, his backup people are just as dense and ignorant as he. When he's still losing the argument five threads and a thousand posts later, he resorts to the ABUSE button in a feeble attempt to stifle the debate.

You know who you are! (patent, sinkspur, lemonhead, and their whole dang idiotic ping list!)

[tom paine 2]

Yeah, would you please stop already. I'm a big boy. I know what articles I want to read. I read the graham article all by my self. I don't need some nanny pushing it in my face. Take me off the ping list already. Please.

Ambrose, how did I get on yours? ::giggle::

I stole Sabertooth's list :) ("Immitation is the sincerest form of thievery...")

# 123 ..... ROTFL .....

[Victoria Delsoul]

:-D

[Shermy]

LOL! Thanks for the ping jj! BTW, I like your profile page.

Patriciaruth, please explain why at post # 8 you say I should not be on a ping list.

The discussion on this thread is most interesting . But no one has mentioned the "Bump Register" which I think is a great way to keep informed on topic areas without everyone getting bogged down in "PING" lists.

John -- are you still going to be able to implement the automatic notification for people that sign up for particular topic areas?

More information on this:

Free Republic "Bump List" Register

You could always try FReepmail. If that failes, I would report them to Admin Moderator (via FReepmail).

Shalom.

[jjbrouwer]

Thanks! I'm honoured. I've made it to number four on your own profile page.

Asked one idiot to remove me from his 'ping list' and this is the response

I don't have a steadfast bumping list. I generally make a list off the latest post. If you don't want to read my threads because the truth is too scary for you than you can ignore them

What an A**hole
