Is there anyone you don't get along w on this forum?

I've been here since 2007 and I guess I get along w most members, I just checked my ignore list and there's only 6, which I suppose is not huge, I dunno for sure since I need feedback from you guys haha. The ppl on that list are basically like outright racists, bigots or those who are just totally unreasonable and/or insist on arguing some nonsense ad naseum that I basically have no time for.

There's yet another guy here who is not on my ignore list but he's a bit annoying to me. Never knew the guy but interacted w him for the first time on some F1 thread, we were getting along well, celebrating Max V's championship win when all of a sudden he says this term which goes more or less like "don't honk the bear" or some crap like that, so growing up in N Amer I dunno what that means, so I asked him....and THAT'S when the guy inexplicably goes off on me, telling me to "get a life", etc..what? LOL...all the while this is a supposedly grown man spending countless years as a lowlife voyeur arguing who's the best driver when obviously the answer is that it's a TEAM effort. Anyway, what a freaking weirdo.

I find it pretty stunning how I feel like I agree with many folk, then a thread comes along where politics and/or guns are involved, and I realise I do not see eye to eye with them at all. I'm sure that goes both ways.

OTOH, I'm sure I can get hot-headed at folk who don't deserve, and they think I'm an a-hole.....and they're probably right

Ya, I try to be tactful, the main thing is respecting other ppl's pov unless they are talking crazy stuff, everyone's different.

Anyway, you guys didn't tell me your ignore list count.

I have one on my ignore list but he was banned a long time again. There is one other person I find annoying but I haven’t seen a post from him in a while and tried my best to ignore him before that.

8. One I know was banned a while ago and won't be back. The rest are active. Added one today, and another 2 within the last week.

I honestly think you'd be the last person on anyone's ignore list.

Anybody?

Didn’t know there was such a thing as a block list . If I see something I don’t like I scroll on by and get on with my life.

This forum sometimes is quirky for me too, fails to load.
