Honest question for Mr. McQuain. How many people in here have you ignored?

Sid Vicious

Does it matter?

RebelScum

11/26/21 11:38am

It’s an honest question.

11/26/21 11:39am

What does that even mean? Maybe a better, and sincere as well, question would

RebelScum

11/26/21 11:40am

I am genuinely curious what the record is for most people ignored.

Sid Vicious

11/26/21 11:42am

But why target a single poster, if you're after the most across the board?

RebelScum

11/26/21 11:44am

I am not targeting a single poster. His linked thread discussed the large number

Sid Vicious

11/26/21 11:46am

I guess then I'm confused by "Honest question for Mr. McQuain..."

Can you DM him? Seems like a DM may get seen by a single poster for sure.

Good point. I will try that.

Sid Vicious

11/26/21 11:39am

But then the rest of the board wouldn’t see it so what’s the point?

maxpowers

11/26/21 11:40am

Shouldn't he get notified seeing as this is linked to the original thread?

CougarTailDevourer

11/26/21 11:40am

I don't think so. Maybe that's a feature to add.

jrifkin48

11/26/21 11:40am

Yes. And he definitely keeps track of those so he’ll see it

TEXAS

11/26/21 11:43am

That wouldn't accomplish the subtle cyber bullying that he's going for.

Lol. You should be a mod since you are so good at divining intent. There is no

Sid Vicious

11/26/21 11:43am

If he’s good at divining intent he’s probably overqualified to be a mod

11/26/21 11:43am

Kinda like how MM could have DM’d Jefe to suggest a rule change, but instead

garyfan

11/26/21 11:50am

That's not the same as singling someone out to bully/mock in a brand new thread

Goliath

MM started a thread to create some drama. He’s getting some drama.

garyfan

11/26/21 11:58am

It's lost on me on how piling on him is a positive thing for him or anyone else.

Goliath

11/26/21 12:02pm

And I didn't see anything in his OP that was "looking for drama"

Goliath

11/26/21 12:03pm

MM went out of his way to start a thread that was intentionally trying to

garyfan

11/26/21 12:11pm

I don't see anything in the OP that strikes out at anyone. I think his overall

garyfan

11/26/21 12:23pm

The problem he was seeking a solution for in his OP already has one in the form of blocking people from interacting w/

Spiff

11/26/21 12:37pm

More than this?

Cru Jones

This is not the appropriate way to address an Alpha.

zsmooth

11/26/21 11:40am

Alpha?

Big12Yfan

11/26/21 11:51am

He's stated in previous threads that he uses the max amount of blocks.

CougarTailDevourer

11/26/21 11:40am

Didn't even realize that there was a maximum

Magathis

11/26/21 11:42am

I had no idea there were limits

Sid Vicious

11/26/21 11:43am

Same. The limits may have started with Sheikh Djibouti, when he ignored almost literally half of CB.

jdub

11/26/21 11:45am

Lol. I missed that one.

Sid Vicious

11/26/21 11:47am

I may have been wrong. He claims in this post he has 235 ignored.

CougarTailDevourer

11/26/21 11:46am

Man wonder what I did to earn 1 of 10 blocks?

WorfoSAUR

11/26/21 11:59am

I left a smiley on an investing post and suggested that AMC wasn't headed to

CougarTailDevourer

11/26/21 12:01pm

I have a lot ignored, just to clear up the board.

Thrill

11/26/21 1:20pm

I’m on his ignored list and I have never criticized him. It makes me sad.

I prefer honest questions to dishonest questions.
