The mystery just got a bit deeper... For the life of me, I can't fathom who would ignore me, as you are the only one I ever had "words" with on this forum.... Time to put on the detective hat, I guess...

Since my life-changing illness last year I've just got a different outlook on life and wish everyone could be nice to each other all the time. Idealistic I know, but you can't shoot a guy for wishing for a better world.

Personally I have never set a member to ignore, though a couple have mentioned it here - I've never felt the need to bother as I know it does no good and if I can't stand someone that much I can just turn off my PC and go back to the real world, which some people don't. I've always just been the type of person to speak up for those who can't or wont stick up for themselves for whatever reason, and a few friends had passed comments to me about the forum so I thought I'd raise it as I'm frequently here.

Last thing to mention is that I know I'm a vendor and they aren't generally big participants here unless they're selling something or defending a product of theirs, but I was contributing here long before business took off because I'm an enthusiast. I always point customers in this direction and encourage people to have a go themselves first and do my best not to sound like I'm peddling my wares most of the time (I have a specific thread  for that!). Not trying to come off as a moaner with this thread, but hopefully it shows I care about more than just the business side of gaming!

Thanks for everyone's comments on this by the way - at least I know how the land lies and maybe at least I've inclined some of those spoilers to hold back a bit at least.

Back to arcade comments now I guess.......anyone know if the mini-wheel attachment for the turbo-twist spinner is any good?..................  8)

Is it rude to ask what your life changing illness was?  I hope you are feeling better now and I mean that with the utmost respect.

I do find the older I get the more I wish people could see both sides where people are coming from but yet again if we force people to do thing we are just killing the whole part of what makes life so interesting.

If we where all the same then what would we all talk about.  Variety is the spice of life.  

Only thing I could suggest that would help is put everyone's age up.  Most comments that sound ignorent are from people that haven't experience it.  I know age isn't a major indication of intelligence but i never heard anyone say "listen to the young wise man".  or something like that.  I know I read something in a fortune cookie that was very wise and it had to do with an old man.

What do i know.  I just want to build some cool mame stuff and have fun.

We live in mysterious times.

Protokatie, you said your ignore count was 2 yesterday ?  It's now risen to 3 !!

What the hell ?!?    ???

I swear, someone's playing silly buggers with these ignore counts.

They're not worth the paper they're written on  (or "the pixels they're written with").

Hows this for Irony - No one is ignoring me,  but Turncades has one.  Does that mean he's a bigger troublemaker than I am?  Say it isn't so!   :cheers:

Personally Frizzle, you come off as a straight out butthole and you talk down to people, HOWEVER, I find what you say, most times, invaluable, very helpful and extremely informal, I just don't like your delivery system is all.  Other than that, I don't see anything wrong with the forums, IMO.  You are one of the guys I would definatly come to and ask, "How the Hell do I install this thing?" without a second of thought, despite our personal spat we had.
