“Do not post to me” - Repost

Posted on 10/17/2011 3:13:10 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.

That’s almost as funny as your tagline.

You like me. You really really like me.

People can get way too worked up about lines of text typed by a stranger they have never met.

You know, I feel that you directed that at me, personally. Admit it. You did, didn't you?

And how do YOU know we've never met? Now that I think about it, I'm sure you're the same bozo who posted "LOL" on one of my threads last week. That was a cheap shot, and I WON'T FORGET IT!!!

Now, STOP POSTING TO ME!!!!!!

Generally speaking, and correct me if I am wrong, but one never actually meets strangers, thus the term “stranger”. When one meets a stranger, the stranger is no longer a stranger, but someone one has met. Hence the question arises, if one types to a stranger, then does the person typed to remain a stranger or someone typed to no longer a stranger?

Should I think this deeply or not?

Good advice, but I only drink cheap beer and expensive Bourbon. Tequila makes me want to dance on table tops and post to strangers. I can’t help it.

I am reminded of bickering children complaining to their mom. “He's LOOKING at me! Make him stop! “

Reminds me of Bill Cosby's shtick - "Would you stop touching me!?"

“It’s impossible for us to enforce.”

Then remove the freakin function.

Make it impossible for anyone to post here at Free Republic?

That can only be done one poster at a time.

We can remove that function for you if you wish.

;-)

We used that but not as much as "You crossed the line...Mom!" My sister and I shared a full bed with an imaginary line running down the middle. Arms, legs, pillows, hair....nothing was allowed to cross that line.

Car rides were worse. Our youngest sister, the baby got to sit in front, ALWAYS, leaving me, my sister and brother to share the back seat. God help anyone who crossed the line on a long trip.

Not bad, not bad, but this one needs some work.

5. Ignore the poster, if you don't reply, they won't reply.

Should be

5. Ignore the poster, if you don't reply, there is a small chance in hell they won't reply.

“Make it impossible for anyone to post here at Free Republic?”

Sorry, but that is a specious reply.

You have a “report abuse” function do you not? Do you not utilize that as a way to stop abusive and or unwanted perpetual postings by certain individuals. If not why have the wasted capacity?

And btw, thanks for the thinly veiled threat.
