I made the mistake of reading my transparency page.
It tells you how many star members have you on "ignore."
ONE star member has me on ignore. Who could it be? The mind boggles! I will (I'm serious here) lose sleep over this trying to deduce/guess who it could be. If it were 20 or 100 it wouldn't be so bad -- but ONE?

(29,414 posts)Then again, I don't post in GD (never did much in the old GD, either.) So I don't run into too many of the people proudly wearing their badge/t-shirt that states "I'M OFFENDED!!!11!"

(27,677 posts)Look, I know there's nothing I can say right now that would make you feel any better, but rest assured, I will be financially responsible for everything.
All this because you had to know why I do not like you.
Well, you were kind of vague.
You want to know why? I'll tell you why. I think you are a smarty-pants. I was too polite to say that before. But then you spied on me, you stalked me, you badgered me, you poured Yoo-Hoo down my Dockers, you crunched my hand, and then, as if all that was not enough, you burned down my newsstand, my livelihood, a gift to me from my beloved uncle, may he rest in peace!
Was that so hard?

I'm afraid I'm a slow adaptor to DU3.

madinmaryland
(64,933 posts)enough to put you on ignore!!
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)If it makes DU a better world by having me on ignore than so be it!
suninvited
(4,616 posts)and you would never know it!
Apparently, it only counts if a member with a star ignores you. I don't have one.
Of course, I don't have you on ignore or I wouldn't be posting here.
zanana1
(6,113 posts)It could be that you remind somebody of someone. Who knows? In other words, don't worry about it.
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)Really, people want to ignore me?
No clue who they are and honestly, not missing them one bit.

BootinUp
(47,144 posts)how its counted. One will read my posts but is blocking my emails. As if I ever wanted to send one?
The funny thing is, I picked up most of those in just the last week or so. I guess some Nader lovers and Hillary haters didn't like what I said.
cliffordu
(30,994 posts)Really. It makes me feel insignificant.
I don't ignore ANYONE. I like snarking folks I believe to be idjits.
treestar
(82,383 posts)So there's someone out there that will read my posts but doesn't want me to DU mail them!
Very odd, as I almost never use DU mail.
OmahaBlueDog
(10,000 posts)Maybe they think they know you??
BootinUp
(47,144 posts)lol.
Why does this person think we are going to DU mail them??????

Curmudgeoness
(18,219 posts)If they are ignoring you, that means you will not have to read an answer from them to any posts you make. And you have to know that would be a good thing.
Pffff, that from someone who is not ignored! I guess that I don't know how you feel.

(115,686 posts)I must go to GD and take drastic measures...
Wait Wut
(8,492 posts)Two people have me on ignore, but THREE are ignoring PMs. I've only PMed two people ever and they both initiated. Not only that, but one was a supportive kind of discussion and the other was, well...a bit catty.
BootinUp
(47,144 posts)see above, treestar and I have mentioned similar odd ignorer behavior.
Wait Wut
(8,492 posts)...and see which one doesn't go through. You and Treestar do the same and we'll solve this mystery.
