I've never killfiled anyone, but it is easy to skip over them and I would
not care much for a moderated newsgroup at all. I can decide for myself
what's appropriate, without someone else deciding that I/others have
offended their sensibilities.

IMO, those who have anything bad to say about kill files don't have
one. The rest of us who do, know we don't want to see certain names
in our TOC and let the program do the skipping for us.

True!

Those who consistently use them are the smallest of minorities.

Most claim them, then run around bleating like newly shorn sheep.

Few have your self-discipline.

Yes, killfiling is a personal choice IMO. I definitely have a killfile
available, but I'd rather put those that I don't care to read in different
colors, and then choose to read or not depending on the subject.

Wow, that's actually a pretty cool way of coding choices here.

Kudos!

You aren't part of the crowd that calls people who use kill files
names either.

I can't imagine why people would care what others do with their killfiles.
It's a personal choice and there's certainly nothing wrong with using them
if one chooses to. They're there for a reason. :-)

Quite so, but what does perplex me, is when someone who is in a kf changes
something and a killfiler starts creating a big fuss about it.

I wonder if they expect the killfiled, to ask permission from the killfiler
first!!!

Such arrogant self importance takes my breath away ...

Indeed! ;-)

So simple to just create a new iteration of that particular filter.

No need to whinge, no need to complain, just do it!

....because if they had a real killfile they wouldn't even see it....

Makes you wonder if they need to write new code instead of just press
a button to make the nymshifter go away again.

All those who post about their killfiles most certainly care... hardly
a week passes that sf doesn't boast about her killfile, about who's in
it, urge others to use killfiles, and most especially who to killfile.
Boasting about who's in her killfille sf demonstrates the same level
of classiness her husband would demonstrate boasting about how she
gives great BJs... both are topics normal people STFU about because
they are not going to prove it.

I use ForteAgent so I have killfile ability but I have never used it
because it's very easy to ignore your 300 pound butt whenever I
choose, but since I don't believe you have a significant other I'd be
happy to treat your big needy butt to a good pounding, all you need do
is ask/beg. LOL-LOL

Agree Cheri, I am getting tired of being told I should or shouldn't
read/reply to some folks. I do ignore the true trolls or at least the
nym they troll with, but for anything else I just skip about to what i
want to reply to.

Oh?

So you would get "tired" if a cop told you to strop hanging out with
criminals?

Of course you do.

By creating your own bifurcation you get to proclaim being anti-trolling
whilst simultaneously interacting with the worst trolls here.

Kind of a shitty little act, if you ask me.

That you do, and it is petty hypocrisy lived large.

Even the posters that annoy me at times come up with good tips and things.
It's pretty easy to see where a thread has gone to and ignore it IMO.
