There was a discussion in IRC, and this question came up.
Not starting a flame here, just curious as to who's got him on ignore. [ 02-25-2004: Message edited by: Khyron ]
We KNOW you hate Somthor. IGNORE HIM and let it fucking drop.

Falaanla Marr obviously shouldn't have said:
Fucking shit. LET IT DIE ALREADY.We KNOW you hate Somthor. IGNORE HIM and let it fucking drop.
See, Gikk? I told you, if I post it, someone's going to get a stick up their ass and reply with something like this.

Exactly, now this is probably 10th thread about him too, christ.
Khyron seariously, grow the FUCK up.

Not a stick up my ass, no.
If we were MEANT to know how many people were ignoring someone, wouldn't we be able to see a count?
NOT, HOWEVER, to be malicious, teach anyone a lesson, or anything. It's because I'm genuinely curious.
Also, if a whole bunch less people are thenI think there are, then maybe it's time to rethink, and see if I've been going overboard.
However, I hope this thread doesn't turn into a flame at ALL - it's just because of the subject matter, it needs to be a flame thread.

Kind of like how you get a stick up your ass when Somethor posts. Anything. Anywhere.

Then again, I don't think I've ever ignore someone, except maybe once to see how it worked.

It woulda been taken far differently had you posted it, as you aren't always following Somthor around flaming him.
Khyron, on the other hand, is.

Yeah, and the reason I posted it for Gikk is because she's not a subscriber. So, fuck you too

Suddar painfully thought these words up:
hoooooly shit I think Khyron takes a bit far too but it was just a simple question.
Yeah, no shit.
What could possibly make Parcelan, possibly the most diabolical creature on earth, say that?
Is it because he views Somthor as revenge on people like Bloodsage, like that pussy Cookies & Cream? No. I've never had a beef with anyone that I couldn't handle myself, like that pussy Cookies & Cream.
Is it because he thinks it's a bandwagon and inherently evil, like that pussy Cookies & Cream? No, bandwagons are far overblown and a ridiculous topic for flaming.
Is it because he is secretly paying Somthor to annoy people and thus solidify his powerbase? No.
It's obvious that flaming doesn't work on Somthor. Let it end. That's not surrendering to troll assaults, that's common sense. It's clear that Drysart doesn't consider him a threat, hell he probably likes keeping him about in some bizarre attempt to force us to accept people...or maybe he's just a sadist.
At this point, Somthor hasn't really done anything lately, and whether he realizes it or not, he's conformed enough to us to avoid a daily thrashing. He can say we've conformed to him, but the more intelligent will see differently.
So yeah. Ignore him and find a new hobby. Dwelling on something to this degree is just as stupid as Cookies & Cream. He's a real pussy. [ 02-25-2004: Message edited by: Mr. Parcelan ]

You are constantly bitching about him.
There's a subtle difference.

Ive been ignoring him for awhile now.

For those who might have missed it...
the great thing about me is that there are so many me's
to answer your quest best I can tell about 10 active users have me on ignore some I know why others im not clear on. of that ten only 2 have me wondering what the heck I did the rest I could care less about.
now there are people who dont post every day that show up periodicly some of which may be alts or seldom used accounts who also have me on ignore I figure that to be another ten
just a rough guess so dont jump me for being wrong about it.
Oddly enough just about every person who has me on ignore responds to my posts anyway.
However, I also do not suffer fools gladly. Even a drooling mouthbreather like Somthor. So every time he trips my "You fuckin' jerk" switch, I *will* jump his shit about it.
But, hey, that's just me. The rest of you assholes will just have to get used to it. I'm not changing.

Mortious said this about your mom:
Abbi MkII.
Yah, I went overboard, and got royally reamed up the ass about it..
I also apologised publicly on the forum for doing it..
(and although it got a few responses, I noted that the vast majority of opinion was that they're not going to "forgive and forget".. c'est la vie.. at least Snoota seems to have forgiven me over my "discovery Channel" comments of almost a couple years ago.. maybe this one will die in 2 years too...)
In answer to the question: No, I dont have him on ignore. Like Callalron I don't see a need to ignore anyone on these forums (although there are a number of folks who ignore me.. that's fine)
I just now make a conscious effort not to open any of his posts, or skim over any posts that he makes in the threads I read.
YE SINS PERPETUATE!
His idiocy provokes me. So he is best just left alone.
I see nothing wrong with me utilizing the board's function for the purpose for which it was intended. I ignored Burger until he straightened his act up. I am sure if Somthor stopped acting like a fool, I could do the same with him.
For what it is worth, Burger and Somthor are the only two I have ever had ignored. It takes a lot to tork me off that badly. Somthor pushed the buttons so I did the best thing.
It is hard to ignore him though when everyone quotes him all the time, and people are bitching about him all the time. I just keep ignoring him though, and I love the new feature where I don't have to see his threads.

Katrinity painfully thought these words up:
I still refuse to ignore anybody. Its not that hard to just skim over a person's post without actually reading it if you don't want to hear what they say. Those that just have to read everything are still going to read ignored users most likely.
I tend to skim thread responses unless it's something important. If it becomes the core of conversation, and halfway down the second page it's turned into all sorts of nasty flaming stuff, I will generally go back and see what was going on. But that's not something I do solely with Somthor. There was that Presidental Resume thread the other day; I read it when it was on it's first page, it looked like something I didn't want or need to get into, and I ignored it. Wasn't til the next day when all of Parcelan's interesting and amusing threads that I'd been enjoying no longer had a viewable "started by" name that I went looking for what happened.
Likewise, I don't dig ignoring people. I inevitably open the posts anyway. To this day, I've neither ignored (or to my knowledge been ignored by) anyone.
In other words, I think that Katrinity's right.
Likewise, and this is going to sound very stupid but bear with me, while I do think Somthor certainly has and at times does say horribly stupid things, he doesn't necessarily do it in every thread, or at least not to "OMG MUST...LAUNCH...THE BOMB!" levels. IF I respond, I rather prefer to do it like Vernaltemptress; Wait til he says something inane, offensive, or stupid, and handle it in that thread. What I don't do is go to literally every thread the guy's posted in in the last day and fire off a "I wish you would die, omg I want to see your head split open with an axe" type flame. Those are 1. needlessly disgusting, 2. make the person making such a post look stupid, and 3. they don't help the people with more effective points to expound upon. It ends up being the lynch mob mentality YET AGAIN, which is just stupid.

I've spent more time away from the boards because of the majority the Som-Haters, than I have for the stupidity of one person.

A sleep deprived Faelynn LeAndris stammered:
Sheesh.. I like a lot of you who are in with the Somthor hate, and I still personnally think he is a moron... But I think you all on the Somthor hate wagon (Note this excludes Call since he has been the only one I have ever seen that legitemately flames him most of the time) are more of an annoying pain in the ass than he is.I've spent more time away from the boards because of the majority the Som-Haters, than I have for the stupidity of one person.
yeah Call and Sage are special circumstance for the most part.
