It seems there is a sudden upswing in ping list.

Noticed that too.

My suggestion: if you have ping lists and someone has not responded to them in a month or two, take 'em off.

I knew exactly who this thread was directed at just from the title. Mr. Osborne seems to think that FR should be used as a cheap personal advertizing vehicle for his political campaign when he should realize that there aren't enough FReepers in his district to make a difference. He needs to get out and talk to the voters in his district.

Perhaps, for a period of time, everyone should add 'davidosborne' to every reply, every article...

Start a pool on how long it takes for him to say 'enough!'.

hehehehehe

I don't like to be added to ping lists without being asked or without asking to be added.

That said, a long time ago I started this ping list of homeschoolers. I got most of your names off a homeschooling thread where you posted a "pro-homeschooling" post. I did not ask and I feel bad about it. Now I only add people if they ask to be added.

I try to keep my pings to only education and homeschooling issues. I rarely use it, as you know. However, please please let me know if you want off the list! It's an easy thing for me to remove you and I understand that people's interests change.

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!)
