Why is having a mod on the ignore list against rules?

RE: Why is having a mod on the ignore list against rules?
With your sexy wife, I would hope Wink
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

And I have no doubt that similar measures could be taken here. However, while I don't know the legal system where you live, I'm betting that there's never been a case of a court ordering any law enforcement agent to turn invisible whenever there's a person around who doesn't like them.

I too have no one on ignore... I fail to see the point of ignoring others.

Disgust. Do you never feel so utterly disgusted by a person that you take advantage of every single possible option you have to avoid such a person?

Avoiding someone is a test of character, especialy outside the internet. And I have never had any problem avoiding the people I chose to avoid outside of the internet.

Yet when on a forum or social nework, I cannot simply avoid the festivities or events on which I encount a person I would prefer to avoid.

In such a case, the option of avoiding someone is rather helpfull. And not not because one thinks that one would therebye avoid the behavior of that person in question.

But because one does not want to desintegrate oneself into the type of behavior that one would engage in, when confronted with a person one wants to avoid.

The reason why I, for exampe, avoid the person who forced me to eat bugs on my way to school when I was 9 years old, is because I would want to avoid to feed that person his own teeth.

In the same way, I want to avoid people who wronged me so I do not lower myself down onto a state of character that I think of to be to low.

Well, being someone who is easily enraged to the point of almoust being mad by sexism, childabuse, dishonesty and sadism I do actualy not really think that I have to appologise for anything when being enraged by such behavior.

Yet I do want to avoid getting to such a point and every method that helps me avoiding such is welcome.

Nothing forces you to interact with any other person, and the ignore function doesn't make a person's entire presence invisible to you. I still see Vinny G.'s threads and posts. All that I can't see is the content of those posts. I'm still very much aware that he's there, and the ignore feature doesn't prevent me from reading his posts when someone quotes them anyway. The ignore feature is functionally not worth very much.

I dunno, maybe it's because I enjoy getting into a rightly nasty scrap with people I don't like now and then.
