If I'm interested in the topic, I can navigate well enough to find the relevant posts without help.
Agreed, so I will take this opportunity:
AntiJen; MistyCA; SAMWolf; nicmarlo please be so kind as to dePING me. Thanks, and Merry Christmas.
You of course realize that by starting this thread, you have probably put yourself on at least 30 lists by now, right?
I don't need to be reminded that Gray Davis is a freaking moron 15 times a day.
I new that years ago.

Please don't take me wrong I'm on a few of them and I enjoy them. However when a person starts recieving whole list pings to a same thread 4 times for that same thread then I consider that to be abuse. Most of us in here if we want off a ping list do so by posting the request in the thread and the issue is then settled. The person may have many reasons for doing so like getting pings to topics they do not want to pinged to. In ... |

Until recently, I might find an email or two, and perhaps a comment that came in after I had turned of the computer for the night. Now, when I see the MY COMMENTS highlighted, I am amazed to find a dozen or more new articles which have been sent to me via *ping* lists. I know of only two lists to which I requested to to be added, but now it seems I am on fifteen or twenty. And most of them are topics that are not really something... |

I was just informaed by American Perservitive that it was Monaco, NOT Morraco.Needless that error because it was in the lead post resulted in the deletion of that discussion. For that I apologize. The discussion has been about the bump and ping lists and why some people find these lists to be of value. It recived over 15 responses in it's original thread.Unfortunately I did not print out the original article so I can't offhand remember what was said but Nonetheless we will go ahead and continue with this discussion with part 2.Bump for more responses.FREE TED MAHER NOW!!!! |

It would be nice it the software had put the receiver in control of the ping instead of the sender. I suppose it's buried so deep inthe code that making such a change is unworkable. Then again, maybe not :-)
At any rate, I too recently asked to be removed from the "Foxhole"
Someone spammed me and it wasn't polite.
ROFL!!
LMAO!!
Honestly, I don't care to be pinged to things people think I might find of interest or whatever on a case by case basis.. But to just mindlessly spam these lists is kind of annoying.
Further, what's worse is when they do it with like a 10,000 x 10,000 pixel image that completely f'es up your self search window.
I swear, I have posted just to get their monster pic to dissappear, lose the scroll bar and get the screen back to normal.

We have a rule in our home..we are all grown ups..we do not HAVE to answer the phone just because it rings
We do not have to answer the door just because someone knocked
And you do not have to respond to pings if you do not choose to
(sorry....couldn't resist....this all is a bit like a Seinfeld episode)
