Have you ever been ignored on this forum?

Insider2 · July 28, 2019 2:58PM

LOL, I tried to PM a member to get a summary of a discussion that was removed and learned that he was ignoring me! :'(

That is a great way to find out for sure so I'm going to PM a few more members to check it out. I'm glad CU increased the "ignore" software. Perhaps I'll go for the record.

ms70 · July 28, 2019 3:14PM

Don't expect a lot of replies.

Hemispherical · July 28, 2019 3:16PM

Maybe does not know how to use the private message?

What’s funny (probably not for the poster) is when someone posts on an individual’s “wall” thinking it’s a private message but it’s available for EVERYONE to see.

Posting their real name, address, phone numbers, email, etc.

Aotearoa · July 28, 2019 3:16PM

Sorry about that. I just couldn't take any more of your constant promotion of net grading. Just kidding...

ricko · July 28, 2019 3:20PM

I have no idea if I have been ignored.... Though I suspect I have, due to some comments I have received.... Oh well, I will survive...(someone should make a song with those words )....As long as my wife and my dogs do not ignore me, I am fine... The cats often ignore me... but that is expected. Cheers, RickO

jmlanzaf · July 28, 2019 3:26PM

I'm quite sure I have. I cry myself to sleep every night.

jerseycat101 · July 28, 2019 3:27PM

I tried to ignore one guy, who always shares too much about his varieties, but I still see his posts.

Hydrant · July 28, 2019 3:33PM

Not that I know of. But I wouldn't blame any one for trying.

P.S. My offer from a couple of years ago still stands. I've got the best 10 seats in the house. You pick the game. The more the merrier! The Rams did go to the Super Bowl. Good old fashioned game. No way those referees would let them win after the New Orleans debacle. Last year at the Colesium. Ranks right up there with Wrigley Field and Fenway Park. Only better.

Outhaul · July 28, 2019 3:34PM

Routinely. It could be due to my incessant kvetching, but I don't think so. I mean there's the whole ignoring thing. And what about all the CAC this, and CAC that. A coin is AU/BU...well, is it AU, or BU? You're a numismatist facrissake. You ought to know. And then there's all that meshugas about who has the best grading service. Is it this one, that one, maybe he should start his own service. Now we have to listen to people go on about the farkakte grading system. Oy gevalt!

Don't feel bad, at this point in my life I can't even get our Bassett Hound to acknowlege me anymore. Our Bassett Hound just loves my wife, but ignores me. Her name is Chelsea. I tried to pet her today and she just looked at me, licked herself, and left the room.

coinbuf · July 28, 2019 3:40PM

I have no idea and I really don't care either.

That's the discussion about CAC I missed. I bookmarked it to read today because I gave a grading class for the Tampa Coin Club on Sat.

The member who ignored me is pretty special in my mind although we've had our differences. It came as a shock when I tried to PM him.

cameonut2011 · July 28, 2019 3:48PM

Probably? Maybe? Who really cares though? Not me.

I care. If you ignored me I would be very sad! That goes for @Keets, @jmlanzaf, @Bailey and a few others who I argue with all the time.

AlexinPA · July 28, 2019 4:10PM

If you ignore me please be advised I could care less.

Namvet69 · July 28, 2019 4:17PM

I do not subscribe to negativity as my serenity is strong. I am so grateful for my life today, I will not go there for anyone or anything. Thanks for sharing. Peace Roy

Bochiman · July 28, 2019 4:19PM

Don't know. Ok if I am though.
I do have 2 ignored. One of them, I have ignored on multiple forums as they are just too prolific in posting stupid stuff in order to get their post count up and he really doesn't have knowledge to share and isn't a helpful sort....just an instigator.
The other one....very close to the same, but I only see on this forum.....got tired of all the "look at me!" type of things

PerryHall · July 28, 2019 4:20PM

Skip---Your posts are very educational. I can't imagine anyone wanting to put you on ignore.

Walkerguy21D · July 28, 2019 4:24PM

I don’t think I’ve been ignored, but some of my posts have
Likewise, I haven’t ignored anyone either. Came close once, over a coin I had posted on the BST. Guy really wanted it and spent a lot of time chiseling me down after I’d already given a bottom line price.

ctf_error_coins · July 28, 2019 4:27PM

Please ignore me.

I will never ignore anyone. I like to judge one's character by their words. If they prove it be an idiot, so be it, now I know.

Goldminers · July 28, 2019 4:28PM

Most rational people learn to evaluate thoughts of insiders, not ignore them.

Note that once fully evaluated, sometimes the conclusion is to ignore. LOL

1Mike1 · July 28, 2019 4:35PM

I hope so but I'm not big into PMs so I don't know.

ShadyDave · July 28, 2019 4:36PM

Yes, I’ve messaged “popular” or “frequent” users before on general questions or asking for more detail from one of their posts and sometimes they don’t bother respond. I’m always courteous with my messages and once in a while I will be ignored.

Life goes on, but these Users who happen to have ignored me end up being the users who are doom and gloom about our hobby....kind of an oxymoron. 🤷‍♂️

I’m thankful for all of those who do share their information and time and energy to particulate in this forum. They’re the people who help ensure the hobby stays going.

ShadyDave · July 28, 2019 4:37PM

To add, you’re one of the good ones @Insider2 ....but don’t get cocky 😉

Hallco · July 28, 2019 4:45PM

No, but often worry when I post fakes.....

Ditto for me. I tell myself that my answer/comment was so good, nothing else needed to be said...

I would not be surprised if someone is ignoring me.

@Insider2 Tell me who is ignoring you and I will PM them and tell them you said Hi

keets · July 28, 2019 5:14PM

I tried to ignore myself but the software won't let me.

kbbpll · July 28, 2019 5:15PM

I must be old school. I can ignore people without pushing a button. And on the other side of the coin, at home the sound of my voice triggers the ignore feature automatically.

lcoopie · July 28, 2019 5:40PM

I have a technique to ignore members whom I feel should be ignored.

BillJones · July 28, 2019 5:45PM

Probably. I have ignored three or four people at one time or another, but have only maintained it for one person.

^I should get a few "ignores" out of that one...

Downtown1974 · July 28, 2019 6:16PM

I don’t believe I have. I don’t really give people a reason to. I try to be respectful to everyone and their point of view. When things get heated in here, I log off until the dust settles.

matt_dac · July 28, 2019 6:17PM

I don’t know, and I have not ignored anyone, but I’ve put a couple on ‘double secret probation’

Too late for that. I started being cocky in 1972 and boy did I get embarrassed a few times since.

So I can bother you in PM’s about corrosion, verdigris, and other funny things and you can’t escape?

Hope you’re ok though, seriously...

"I was in a car wreck on the way home"

The person you ran over isn't the same person that blocked you is it?
