Is the "unveil shitlist" functionality on yet?

[crispini]

:yoiks:

Edit: Hm, apparently not.... or I just can't find it.

[LostinVA]

1. No -- 2pm EST

I'm so excited! I may even amke some popcorn.

[Hugin]

3. Same! Same!

:D

[crispini]

6. hahahahaha. Yes, this will indeed be popcorn-worthy.

Although I think this is mostly going to make apparent what most of us already know.

I wonder if it just applies to NEW threads, or if it's going to show up on all threads?

[LostinVA]

11. I think all active threads

[crispini]

13. Ooooo.

Zap!

[Haole Girl]

29. OMG

This could be embarrassing. :blush:

It's just sinking in...what this means. Uh oh.

[cwydro]

2. I don't think so.

Actually I'm a little surprised they chose today to do this what with the SOTU and all. We usually go to some emergency level anyway, right? When extra features get turned off?

But then I don't understand ANYTHING about this new feature. Seems a very bad idea to me.

[crispini]

7. That's true, I wonder if this gets turned off tonight when we go to L1.

Of course, I'm not gonna be here anyway; I'm going out to get shitfaced for the occasion. Our DFA chapter will be playing drinking games publicly.

It's depressing, but you know, it's much less depressing now that we have SOME power. I'm hoping he says something horrible and gets booed. :evilgrin:

[cwydro]

14. Yeah, if I see one single

standing O, I'm gonna puke.

[crispini]

16. Have liquor and just take another shot.

There's a reason we're having our watching party in a BAR. Yeeee HAW.

[cwydro]

21. THAT would be fun.

I don't know if I can watch it at all actually. I truly don't. The man is clueless.

Have fun and have a few for me.:toast: . Ten bucks says he will speak the words "9-11" in the first 60 seconds.

[crispini]

28. I hope they have a very mild version of the drinking game planned

If they pick the word "terra" and it's shots, I'll puke for sure. :scared:

[cwydro]

31. LOL.

If you're capable tomorrow, check in and let us know!

[wildhorses]

34. remember how tore up i got when they added the

the extra column for thread views?

you can imagine my level of anxiety with yet another 'new' and questionable feature:scared:

how ya doing? :hi:

you still coming up?

[cwydro]

41. Yeah, lol

I remember.

Doing good; just haven't been around much. Really hating my job and fretting about whether to quit and take a less well paying one....sigh. Still planning to come up...but it may be later in Feb now. I'll definitely let you know.:hi:

[LynneSin]

4. The WHAT?!

[crispini]

5. Block lists get made public today.

There's a pinned thread in GD.

[cwydro]

10. I think

they only list who an OP has blocked, not everyone.

[crispini]

15. Doesn't everybody start threads?

I guess maybe not, but I think our more *cough* entertaining posters do so. :crazy:

[cwydro]

26. I rarely start threads

and I know some others who don't. But then, I've got no one blocked anyway. You're right, the more entertaining posters will certainly do so.

There was certainly a lot of handwringing and carrying on yesterday when certain people realized their block lists were going to be exposed. People were asking for a grace period to erase their lists etc. That cracked me up.

[crispini]

30. I have one on mine.

It was a mutual disagreement that turned into a mistake. That said, I think this poster's had disagreements and mistakes with way more people than me. :)

[Hugin]

8. Isn't that a tourist trap in Arizona?

I'll have to add it to my list of attractions to see during... Prag's Tour-de-Americana 2007.

Right on!

[crispini]

18. It's a bandname

The Unveil Shitlists.

[Hugin]

20. Or maybe a religion...

The Unveil Shitlists.


:rofl:

[Phillycat]

9. I can't wait!

:D

[crispini]

19. .

:popcorn: :evilgrin:

[LostinVA]

45. *sigh* Some people need mirrors.

:puke:

On edit: Crispini, I am not referring to you.

:thumbsup:

[deadparrot]

12. The unveil shitlist is going to be my new My Posts.

:bounce:

[crispini]

17. Hahahahaha!

This is such a trainwreck. I have gotten over taking any of this personally and have decided to just rubberneck. "Hey, officer, could you bring the bodies over here so we could see them a bit closer?" :crazy:

[deadparrot]

22. I don't have anyone on the nuke option,

so it doesn't matter to me.

But:
Shitlist + SOTU = One fucking fun night at DU

[bicentennial_baby]

23. It will be fascinating, in that

I think it will actually reveal far more about those who are blocking than those who are blocked, in many cases. :)

[LostinVA]

24. Yup, me too

33. Again, we are in agreement...

:thumbsup:

[JackBeck]

35. You know how I feel. I couldn't agree with you more.

As for the spreading of lies, it has gone on for longer than 12 hours.

[LostinVA]

37. True, I meant the gloating part of it re: Nuke Block

Check PM.

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

42. Yes, especially done when done by posters who I haven't even come in contact much recently

And have spent their time bullying ME in the past.

That's fucking bullshit. Anyway, their shit will be displayed for the world.

[jpgray]

36. I can't fucking wait. This is like Christmas!

[bicentennial_baby]

38. I think it's more like Valentine's Day, in reverse...

You can find out really doesn't love you! :bounce:

Although, I suppose that can happen on the real Valentine's Day too :D

[jpgray]

40. They should do a supplementary heart-with-dagger-through-it fundraiser for St. V's

So you can donate to show which people you hate! :bounce:

[bicentennial_baby]

43. That's hot

I'm on board for that! :bounce:

[Phillycat]

44. Ooh, I would LOVE that!

But you'd get the heart sans dagger, of course. ;-)

[jpgray]

53. Aw--and same goes for me!

Though due to their numbers I'm sure any heart given to you will be mostly anonymous. :D

[Phillycat]

58. HA! I'll get all the daggers!

Judging by the number of "ignored" posts on this thread, I'm guessing all my haters are working themselves into a foaming lather about some bullshit, as usual. Everyone hates me...except of course, the ones who actually know me - like you. :D

I think it's hilarious that people keep starting threads about this. And it's not the people who are quietly using the function, either. It's the ones who hate it who keep bringing it to the forefront. I imagine if everyone stops posting threads about it, we'll all stop talking about it. Heh. People are weird.

[Haole Girl]

47. "Valentine's Day, in reverse"

:rofl:

[Phillycat]

39. I know!

I have butterflies of excitement. :D

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

46. I can't wait to see the lists on some braggart douchebags.

[jpgray]

48. It'll be nice to know by name my brothers and sisters in each "na na I can't hear you" club

:D

[Phillycat]

49. Oh, stop it. No one has you on a block list.

You are fabulous. :loveya:

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

50. Some of them will be big clubs.

My list is simple: a threadstalker, Floogeldy, and sniffa. Sniffa is just blocked for fun, though.

[bicentennial_baby]

54. Oh, you say that!

He hasn't stopped crying in days... x(

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

56. Just give him a drink and he'll cheer up again.

[bicentennial_baby]

57. I tried that!

There's only so much vodka your can pour down a man's throat, y'know! :o

[HarukaTheTrophyWife]

59. Try whiskey.

:toast:

[ProfessorGAC]

51. Not Me

The whole thing has me irritated. It's not unlike some fraternity blackballing thing. How sophomoric this entire issue has become. A small minority of thin-skinned children create a situation where the whole enterprise is now under assault. Someone can decide they have NO desire to let OTHERS hear what one has to say on a topic. Ridiculous.
The Professor

[jpgray]

52. You speak for me

But if they -must- include this feature, I think it's only fair to show who uses this nuclear ignore feature on a whim, or to block out even those whose only crime is to politely disagree.

[LostinVA]

55. I agree 100% with you, and stated this publicly the FIRST DAY

Some comments on this thread are NOT meant as jokes -- they are serious, and very, very much sophomoric and sorority-like.

60. Locking.
