Wow! How did you find this old thread ? !

For a while the "pingists" backed off. Now I'm on a dozen or so new ones. Maybe this thread needs to be reposted to remind people to control themselves. I keep getting pinged to threads about Ithaca NY. I have NO IDEA why! I have no interest or connection to Ithaca NY. LOL!

Someone had started a thread today asking for the best threads of 2002. I think it was Arthur McGowan who first asked to "not be pinged" a couple of years ago and that ended up being a classic thread.

Some seem to start these ping lists for their own egos and get all excited when their threads hit 100 or more posts. It takes all types, I guess.

Ithaca is in a beautiful part of NY State, but I'd rather drive there than be pinged to it.

I keep getting pinged to acticles about Florida!! I've never been to Florida, don't plan to ever go to Florida and usually don't care what happens in Florida.

I don't know the person who pings me to these threads and have no clue how I got on anyone's ping list. I've never asked to be included on any ping list!
