I admit that more than once I have lamented the lack of “ignore” capabilities on Free Republic, but you know, over my years on FR, I’ve changed my mind and now find that I agree with the Admin Mod — they’re for wimps. The problem is that on FR, you have to get down to the bottom of the post to see the poster’s name, which is what tells you whether or not to ignore the post. So I’d like it if Free Republic’s forum had a “To” and “From” line at the TOP of posts, making it easier to just skip and move on to the next one when you know the poster is somebody not worth reading. As it is now, you don’t know who wrote the post until you look at the bottom.

That's one of the things I like the best about FR.

I've learned to read the post first, and deal with my preconceived notions later. It's enlightening.

I like that idea, I'm not sure it's workable.
