“BLOCK” Function?


  I’ve tried a search here for such a function,and I’ve come up empty. Is there a way to block certain members? Not just from personal messages,but so they don’t show up in any topic I’m reading. Sometimes it’s nice to ask a question and learn something without someone trying to rub your nose in your lack of knowledge like a dog that did his business in the house.  I am all for learning from others. That’s one of the reasons I frequent this site. However,there are some folks here that do have vast knowledge, but are as abrasive as 40 grit sandpaper. For those folks I’m ready to throw the baby out with the bath water.

@jjss49 ....Mmmm, yes 'n no....some are a bid more 'staid', in some ways.  AG has a 'lively streak' that comes 'n goes...

Like anything of that nature, one is subject the 'good times/bad times' qualities.....but one is also free to walk away from the fracas....;)
@au_lait....Fortunately, perhaps....parties are somewhat frowned upon of late...

Also, fortunately, some things aren't 'catchy'....'bad 'tude' is one....
@geof3...and some forums have had pretty loose rails to start with...

Not that I will claim to not being one to causing or assisting in derailing activities; some forums could use a rock on a rail...

BUT....I've never deleted Anyone's post(s).
It's a Public Forum.  It has rules 'n regs.  It has moderators.('Adult Supervision', whether you agree about the Adult part or the Supervision part....)

As such, one can type anything that comes to mind (assuming that's where it stems from) that fits or causes such.

As long as it passes the R 'n R's, and the mods let it stand.

I'll read it....or not.
I'm pretty open-minded...even to those not.

...personally, clothes on a chicken sounds hilarious to me, but...*shrug*....first you have to catch the critter....;)
*G*  Besides, glupson, I'd really feel bad about ruining your monitor and morning like that...

"Omg, they Actually let him walk around in public....." ;)
Amazing how theatrical fantasies find their way into a forum...MC as an Italian 'Don'...

OK, that's enough.  That's such a 'reach', one may as well let the Coyote win one round with the Road Runner.

The only 'bat' you've to swing is the one in your mind.
Stick with audiotrivia....

Respectfully, J
@dougeyjones....and you're equally free to frequent the alternative of your choice...

I'll assume that's correct....right?

Not pushing; just pointing that out....

Rum could be a tweak in Any cartoon...fueling vehicle, driver, fans, announcer...I can almost see it now...

"The roar of the flaming rum, the smell of the crowd at the Captain Morgan 500mGPee!" (kept short for insurance concerns...)...

Of course, 2 'spotlight' entries would Have to be Road Rum Runner and the nemisis Wiley CoyoteHP....

OK, 'nuff 'Fun"....*sigh*....back to topic and topical stuff....
...where were we?  Ohhhm yezz....
...busily 'dope slapping' for 'thread derailment episodes'...

*seedy segue to even seedier The McLaughlin Group/AG*

"So....'glupson'...or whatever you are....WHat is all this rabblerant about DACs'?!  Whatisthatsuppose to Mean, DAC?  Digital Audible Conspiracy?!  Drivel About Carts?!  Why does 'one' cost thousands, while another chumpchange?!  Do they get 'better' with more zeros behind the second one?  Why isn't there an ADC?!  Or even an AC-DC?!

glupson:  "Well, I..."

"WRONG! So WRONG it masquerades as Right!...."

(This is followed by a full page or 4 of rant&rave that even 'Mr. K' has the sense to avoid....no performing feet on Saturday...@ Bishops' Grate....)

Now...back to 'IRL'...if you can stand it...or stand in for it...

Block if one Must.

Unless you're superstitious...there's always that little chromium switch marked "Of
