I noticed yesterday that one of my friends was exchanging pm's with a TOL member of dubious reputation. I hope my friend was not being misled. Chrys taught me to look at the who is online feature once in a while. It is a good habit.

Eeset, I have to tell you - this is not a good habit. It's considered creepy stalker stuff by many. People who watch the "Who's Online" feature are the reason why I enable the invisible option Vbulletin offers, when it is enabled by board owners. Unfortunately, Knight doesn't have this option enabled, thereby allowing creepers to stalk people. Not that I'm saying you're stalking - just that people who make it a habit to use that feature usually are.

Interesting. I've never thought of (or used it) that way, though I typically do use it to see if there are any threads floating about I might be interested in that I missed by seeing what a cross section of my friends online are reading.


Oh My! the Town Heretic is out of words....:rotfl:
:rotfl: Funniest bit ever! POTD :first:

Seriously, the way you just pulled that out of your hat was amazing. Why you'd wear your hat like that is almost as amazing, but that's just you all over, isn't it. :plain:

Obsessed people have used the function on other boards - to stalk me, and to stalk other friends of mine. I always thought it was creepy.

Creeper.

a couple years ago I found it entertaining to back him into a corner and pound him into silt, whereupon he slunk off butthurt with a teary-eyed drama queen farewell


alas, nothing is forever - within a month he had slunk back

Hmm, a bit ironic coming from someone who made his own coma inducing borefest of a departure speech some time back only to resurface months later with the same tired act.

It's very ironic that after a bunch of tedious posts proclaiming that "TH's time was coming to an end as it should" crap that you're the one reduced to only having half an hour or so a day in a library to vent the same tiresome drivel.

Irony eh, ya gotta love it on occasion. :)

Dear diary I had 4 people on ignore for many months and then took them off. That was a mistake with 3 of them. I have concluded that I am better off not reading what they say. Of course when they are quoted it shows up but at least if I have them on ignore it is easier to avoid responding.

Knight said in the chat box that big changes are coming to TOL. I hope he announces some specifics soon.

Maybe you should just ignore everyone?

She doesn't really ignore people. She "peeks" at their posts, which kinda defeats the actual purpose of ignore.

She also doesn't really turn off her rep. She "peeks" every time her rep numbers change so she can see who repped her, which kinda defeats the actual purpose of turning off rep.

But it does give her an excuse to look for a post of mine and then post "Bliss" or something like it after...unintentionally funny as that might be.

Just wait a few. You'll see. :plain:

:yawn: Ignoring someone actually means not mentioning them and going out of your way to lie and insult them in OTHER conversations.

Of course, you already knew that ... which is why you are so often called on your dishonesty.

Gosh, how interesting.
