    I am only 6 feet tall, but I might have been the leading blocker on these boards. I just unblocked all 38 posters who I had blocked. I believe in 2nd chances. However, my guess is that the blocks by me will soon be coming fast and furious.

    I don't believe in blocking but there are several posters who I haven't responded to in a long time. And several whose posts I just scroll past. It's all about self-control

    There are two posters here who have not blocked me but have incredible discipline in ignoring my posts, I dont know what I did to receive this honor, because other people say much, much worse stuff to them and they take the bait every time.

    Prolly cause you're a pain in the ass to debate with. Doubt it has to do with mean things that are said.

    I'm pretty sure one has never directly engaged me ever that I can remember, so its not like there is even past history/grudge. Whatever the case, I admire the discipline, even when I've taken direct shots.

    Whenever I write something with careful thought, I just get a dislike from Bentonquest, an "off topic" from Bluke and then you just say something about how I'm a communist. I can get the same level of feedback just making fun of people.

    You're missing the dopamine hits your righteous indignation was giving you when you hit that ignore button.

    38 blocks?! Goodness, who are you still debating? I've blocked maybe 2 posters all the years I've been posting here.

    Pretty sure I was one of the 38...

    We will see how long it takes to get blocked again lol.

    Glad you did this though. It is not worth removing other peoples opinion. Shoot...I still let jo spam the threads with his/her nonsense.

    I ended my voluntary subjection to GIFs that were absolutely not amusing, and my life is better. Hard to understand how there's a soul left who hasn't blocked the Russian troll.

    I try not to block though.

    I may block Q just to end the covid/vax nuttery. Perhaps there can be implemented a several-day block, so that whenever there's a covid thread on the front we can block his kook-posts, but then after a few days the block ends and you can enjoy his..... uh.... um ..... other stuff?
