Ever hidden a Lounge post?

[GoneOffShore]

I know I've hidden GD/GDP posts but I don't think I've ever hidden a Lounge post.

[kayakjohnny]

1. Never hidden a post of any sort.

And have only put one person on ignore.

[GoneOffShore]

3. You are a saint!

My ignore list is long and varied. I guess because I'm old and cranky.

[Chan790]

2. Yes.

I've hidden many.

[Kali]

4. nope

never used hide, never used ignore voluntarily, either

I do have use the buddy list - to watch for pizza deliveries

[GoneOffShore]

5. I keep meaning to do that.

[Kali]

10. wish we could add a note or a link to remember WHY we were suspicious

:evilgrin:

[GoneOffShore]

25. Ah, it's usually revealed pretty quickly.

[Iggo]

43. I like to tiptoe through the tombstones every now and again.

The buddy list is perfect for that.

[freshwest]

6. Only one.

[GoneOffShore]

7. Hope it's not this one.

:)

[freshwest]

15. Nah, it was one with people flaming, defending and stomping off- not why I visit the Lounge.

I do use Ignore, but not recently. Don't know about buddies and stuff as someone else mentioned. Carry on, you're doing fine.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. There's one in there right now...

It has to be really gross for me to do that.

And this one......well, it is.

[rug]

9. Link?

[CaliforniaPeggy]

11. Here you go, my dear rug...

12. Thanks, Peg. I'm pleased to report I posted in it.

Twice.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. No worries!

I have absolutely no problem with that; obviously you can post anywhere you like.

I found it an icky post, and so I hid it.

:shrug:

[Kali]

13. uh oh

you better not visit me, things are way more "earthy" around here than an unusual wallet location

:hide:


:yoiks:



:rofl:

[freshwest]

16. Yes, that was unusual. Apparently, I killed the thread with my last post. No outrage from me.

[GoneOffShore]

20. Ah, yes, that one.

I understand.

[ohiosmith]

17. Only by accident. Usually my own.

[freshwest]

18. How can it be accidental? I thought several steps were involved.

[ohiosmith]

19. See the little box w/X on far right? Touch it.

[freshwest]

21. Got no 'X' left or right, but running OSX/Firefox. I miss a few things. Don't 'X' yourself, okay?

[ohiosmith]

22. It's a challenge.

:hi:

[freshwest]

23. Hope you're keeping cool down there! Right back at ya!

:hi:

[ohiosmith]

26. As cool as the center seed of a cucumber in a bowl of buttermilk.

:toast:

[kimi]

24. I have accidentally.

Seriously, it was an accident, while in the car, on my Android phone. It has these itty bitty little things that my big old fingers can't always touch the right way especially in a moving vehicle on a bumpy highway. It was sort of embarrassing, especially since I didn't know I'd done it and kept searching and searching for that thread till - DUH - I figured out what that little "X" meant. :blush:

[some guy]

27. lots and lots.

I routinely hide all threads about cigarettes. I quit a couple years ago, and try to not think about it.

When the Red Sox won the World Series for the first time since 19?? (way-the-hell long ago), there were tons of threads about that, and I hid all of them. That was a chore.

[csziggy]

28. Sometimes, when I get tired of seeing a post I have no interest in

Like the one about all the various smelly flowers - I just hid it. I am allergic to flowery scents and just thinking about stinky flowers bothers me. The temptation to jump in and make nasty comments about all those noxious blooms was growing, so I finally hid the thread.

Pretty much in the Lounge, I hide threads when they are popular but I have nothing positive to say. No reason to be negative here.

[Renew Deal]

29. I've never hidden any posts ever.

Except maybe as a test which I immediately unhid.

[TorchTheWitch]

30. more than I can count

like those damn plagues of song lyric OP's that pop up by the damn dozen. I've had to put two people on Ignore who go nuts with the dozens of song OP's filling the first page of the Lounge with them. What, they can't make a SINGLE fucking OP listing all the songs with the links to the lyrics and have some deep need to spam the Lounge with them???

[Kaleva]

31. No but have tried to hide all the Palin threads in GD. Gave up after a few days.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

32. No, but I am very disappointed by the lack of musical taste in the lounge.

I get lectured by people who think noise that sounds like someone screaming while they are extremely angry, with no melody, no chords and meaningless words is music.

I beg to differ.

[GoneOffShore]

38. Ah yes - The grindcore -

The Pistols but with more anger and less talent.

[Manifestor_of_Light]

40. Last person I challenged about music in R/T - they got nuthin.

They thought religious music was supposed to be a mosh pit.
I told them to listen to the Rite of Spring by Stravinsky if they wanted something loud and violent.
They came up with noise.

[Richardo]

33. Hell yes.

Pile-on one-word copycat threads alone number in the hundreds.

[TZ]

34. Yeah, because a lot of the

crazy shit that annoys me to no end in GD often ends up here (you know, vaccines are bad, magic water is better than proven meds, cirucmcision is multilation,etc, etc.) Heck I've been tempted to hide threads in SSP and Science sometimes!

[bif]

35. Probably 20 a day.

Mainly copycat threads and threads that are a name of a song and band.

[tabbycat31]

50. +1

I almost wish that there was a separate folder or forum for music postings. It's annoying when threads alone are just a song.

[nolabear]

36. No. I'm too nosey.

I don't click on everything but I want to know what's out there.

[kick-ass-bob]

37. Just this one:

:D

[bigwillq]

39. yes (nt)

[freshwest]

41. Oh goodie. I just found someone to add to my Ignore list from this thread alone.

[Iggo]

42. I don't think so, but...

...I hid hundreds of posts right after Michael Jackson died.

No mercy. Any and every MJ post I saw got the ax.

Maybe one or a few were in The Lounge.

[graywarrior]

44. Just this overly bloated piece of nonsense

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=8358611&mesg_id=8358611

[graywarrior]

45. See what I mean?

[Call Me Wesley]

46. Ha! That's like Friday and Rickroll playing at the same time.

And yes, that's the only one I did hide. Not because of you, of course. :hug:

[graywarrior]

48. I understand

and yet, it's my only claim to fame.

[GoneOffShore]

49. I just posted in that and it's only up to 4589?

Wassup with that?

I thought it would at least be up to 5 or 6 K by now.

Of course I also posted a link in it to this thread so now there's a full feedback loop. Do you think it's going to cause DU to crash or spontaneously generate the next iteration of the DU message board software?

[graywarrior]

52. I'm sure Skinner is asking the same question

[femmocrat]

47. Yes, occasionally.

I get tired of the music and youtube links real fast!

[Tuesday Afternoon]

51. maybe.
