"Please do not include me on your PING LISTS, whether you call them impromptu lists or saved lists. It is customary on these threads to respect another freeper's desire not to be on your lists.

Show me the rule, x. That it is "customary" is irrelevant. Show me where I violate FR rules by pinging you with others when I am posting to directly to you are talking about you.

Now, if you wish that I not ping you at all, then you must abide by the forum rules and refrain from discussing Calvinism.

If you follow that option, I'd gladly refrain from pinging you ever again.

"Please do not ping me as part of ANY list. This leaves you free to ping me separately which is within established guidelines."

x, the only time I ping you is when I am talking to you, or when I am talking about you. It is in accord with FR stated rules that I include you in the ping. There is no call and no need for a separate ping.

If I make a post that mentions you ~AND~ I don't post to you, I am technically in violation of FR posting rules. It appears that you are trying to make a situation where I am damned if I do and damned if I don't.

You are being petty and irrational.

It is customary all over this forum to ask someone's permission to include them on your ping lists and to include opportunity for them to ask to be taken off. For all I know there is a protocol in effect since it is such a widespread practice.

I, therefore, request to be taken off all your ping lists of any variety. I have not said you couldn't separately post to me, so, therefore, your rehashing of other rules is irrelevant. You simply don't want to be bothered with the time it will take to comply with both.
