“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.

I think you need to fill out one of those “Internet Butthurt Forms” if you expect a serious response.

If you keep this up, Admin Moderator will ask you to stop posting to him/her.

I only have a problem with #1

1. It's impossible for us to enforce.

Everyone knows that the Mods are all powerful. They are faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.

Time to dust off this ancient thread: DID I ASK TO BE ON YOUR PING LIST?

I have not changed my mind in the nearly a decade since I posted it. If you are responding to a post, whether the start of a thread or a response in it, say anything you like (within reason, or close thereto). But for the love of all that is holy, do not add people to your ping list unless they have indicated a desire to join it. It is rude, and it is spam.

Redundant, obligatory but frivolous “Me, too.”

(Although I did generate an offer of a $500 donation. I wonder if that poster paid off after his “cold meds” wore off?)

(I feel guilty not pinging him to this post.)

Congratulations!

Your name has just been added to the "Hippo Attack Ping List."

No one on this list has asked to be on this list.

This list is neither short nor long, distinguished or effete.

I was getting ready for bed and I didn’t want to be the only dysfunctional in town.

Tell you what - I’ll put the pinger on “Mute.”

(But the “Vibrate” function will still be there, of course.)

Ack!

I hate that function.

Himself put my iPhone on vibrate/ring and the first time it went off while it was in my jacket pocket, I nearly had a heart attack.

I thought bees were attacking me.

If someone posts to FR but no one sees it; did they really post?
