My ignore list just reached 501

[Der Blaue Engel]

I've been thinking of granting "Ignore amnesty" and removing everyone due to this milestone. :D

Most of them are due to vitriolic anti-Kerry comments or just plain anti-Dem sentiment. But I was thinking of taking everyone off of ignore once I reached 500, just because, and seeing what happened.

What do the Kerrycrats think?

1. Have any of them been tombstoned?

That would lower the level of BS you'd have to put up with.

2. I checked the first dozen or so, and yes

a few of them had. I'd really like to know how many have been tombstoned, but it's going to take me a while to go through 500. But it always makes me happy to see my judgment confirmed. :)

There's plenty that got on there, though, just because I was in a pissy mood that day.

3. Might be a good idea

I'm not sure when you started the ignore list, but the number of virulent anti-Kerry people has fallen over the last 6 or so months - at least since his October Iraq plan. I've seen a few formerly negative people acting reasonably and the worst people seem to have left or have found something better to do than to trash the Kerry threads.

4. That's good to know

I wish the ignore list was in chronological order; it would be easier to remember why I'd put the more recent ones on, so I could keep them there if need be.

5. I updated mine last night

At least half had been tombstoned, there's one or two who will never come off ignore. But criminy, I've never had 500 on my list! I suspicion it's because *I'm* on so many ignore lists that they don't talk to me so I don't have to put them on ignore! :rofl:

6. At one point I was perversely going to flamey threads

just to ignore people. It was kind of cathartic. I even had Will Pitt on ignore! :rofl: (I took him off when I noticed that today.)

7. I can understand that, lol

Ignore really does make the DU experience more tolerable, and with 500 people on ignore, probably downright joyful!! Will on ignore, yeah, I can understand that. Some days I just want to poke him in the nose.
