Not sure what the problem is, but today I got this in a private message:

Nice...

Why do people have to resort to ad hominem attacks?

Hello pft... (ok to shorten?)

This is very strange. Cannot figure out what has got this guy's panties in a bunch. Sooner or later I'll ignore him, I guess, but I am scratching my head about this right now.

Well, you can't send anonymous PMs on here, so you must know who sent it.

Oh yes, I know who. He joined right when I did. I'm wondering if he is someone's sock puppet?

Usually when people go all ad-hominem it is pretty obvious what is upsetting them. This just has me mystified.

Well, littlerose, according to your profile you already have 1 person ignoring you - so guess you're off to a good start!!! Are you a lesbian?

littlerose · « **Reply #7 on:** December 14, 2009, 10:41:26 AM »

Never mind, I got the explanation! He was very upset by my post in the "Bunker" forum that gives instructions for a survivalist plan for when toilet paper supplies run out.

Apparently I was too plain-spoken. I apologized in the thread for not realizing some people have allergic reactions to the less glamourous side of survivalism.

Oh well, .... happens....

No, I'm not... is that what "ignore" means?

littlerose · « **Reply #9 on:** December 14, 2009, 10:46:04 AM »

wish we had a few minutes of edit function. I should have quoted the question asking me if I am a lesbian. That is what I was answering with "no I'm not".

We seem to be cross-posting a little.,

Littlerose, I'm sorry to hear about those nasty pm's. My assumption is that they are from Boniface, he was here to cause trouble from the begining but he's banned now. He sent me similar pm's.

I improved the Ignore function this morning -- now if you ignore someone, they can't send you PMs AND you won't see their posts.

The "Few minutes of edit function" I'd like to add in the future -- I just don't know how hard that would be to program. When I get some free time I'll look into it, believe me. I know just about everyone on here wants it -- bad.

I will call it the "Wet cement" function, because posts will be like wet cement. After so many minutes, they become permanent stone monuments that people generations from now will read and try to decipher. :)

One way it could be done is to leave the post open to edit as long as it has not been replied to.

CM · « **Reply #14 on:** December 16, 2009, 07:47:50 PM »

That's not too bad an idea, but at the same time, as it is now you could just go back in and put a new post in as an addendum.
