More like BOB

Wrong BOB. MS came out with a... wait for it... dumbed down version of Windows
they called BOB. Looked like it was designed by Mr. Rogers in collaboration with
Fisher-Price. It was a major flop, but subsequent versions of Windows have
interfaces that look more and more like BOB, with vivid, cartoonish, brightly
colored rounded icons, etc.

I thought I was in your bozo bin?

I guess you missed it when I explained that I rarely kill off anybody
permanently. I first set a 7-10 day filter that marks their posts "READ" so my
reader skips right over them. If one of those is in a thread I'm following, I
sometimes read it to see if its anything other than more of the stuff I killed
them about. After 10 days, the filter expires and they are back to normal. If
they still haven't changed their tune, I once again set a "READ" filter, but
usually for 30 days. If they are still acting like a jackass after that, I
permanently filter them, either completely, or to mark as "READ".

Periodically I delete ALL my filters, as most of the posters involved are no
longer posting, or the overly long thread I filtered is so old that it's no
longer a problem.

I usually refer to my filter as "The Penalty Box", not the Bozo Bin, although
many Bozo's get put there.

yeah, yeah.. I read of your hypocracies. First you arogantly announce
to the world that i was in your "bin" now you say it is a "penalty
box?"

Because I had already explained at length how my penalty box works. You got a
time out in the corner for posting those idiotic dots. Post some more, and
you'll be back in the corner wearing a dunce hat for a week or so.

Good lord. that's like announcing that one is pregnant, then
saying one is *"a little bit pregnant". Well, you either are or you
arn't.

If you had read and understood what I wrote, you'd be embarrassed that you used
a totally stuipd analogy that doesn't fit at all. Kill filters are no an
either/or situation. There are lots of types of filters and ways of setting
them. As I said, I still download your headers when you are filtered, but your
posts get marked read as soon as the are downloaded.

You may as well put me in there permamently like you said you were
going to do with Loogy, and Scott, that is unless you pull them out,
play with them a while then put them back in....

Backyard COPD is still filtered, and will probably stay that way for a while. He
hasn't posted much that was useful or entertaining in a long time, and the dots
are a nuisance, plain and simple. I was not the only one here who told him it
was stupid and annoying. Loogy's posts likewise are automatically marked read
for pretty much the same reason. Too many of his posts are just saying one thing
a million diferent ways. Newsflash for Loogy: Nobody gives a flying **** what
you think about HK. The less said about HK the better. *Posts by both Captain
Coughupalung and Loogy are still available to me if I want to read them for some
odd reason, but I navigate new posts by hitting my *"N" key to get to to the
next unread post, so most of the time, I ignore them.- Hide quoted text -

Well, why do you keep blabbing? Put me in the kill file and be done
with it!
