What did I do to piss them off? I've never even had a post sent to the jury.
Warpy
(111,319 posts)because there are some subjects wherein I hold really unpopular opinions with select groups on DU.
If nobody's ignoring me, I'm not doing anything right.
CaliforniaPeggy
(149,678 posts)There's really no explaining it. I've never had a post hidden, and I have way more folks ignoring me.
Don't worry about it!

(4,033 posts)The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,806 posts)since most of my posts are in the Lounge and are cat-related. The stuff I occasionally post in other forums is pretty tame; I avoid arguments and try very hard not to be snarky or rude. Never had a post sent to a jury, complained about in Meta, locked, hidden or deleted. So I, too, have no idea whom I pissed off, or why. Probably never will.
Oh, well.

chalky
(3,297 posts)I've accidentally hit the "ignore" under an OP's post - the dang thing is lined right up with the "Greatest Threads" tab. I've backed out of the "ignore" when I've realized what I've done, but I've always wondered if I've ever inadvertently put someone on ignore without realizing it. (Although obviously you weren't one of the victims, otherwise I wouldn't be in here answering your post...

(62,683 posts)They just caught me during a low blood sugar spell. I'm sure if they knew the real me, they'd enthusiastically embrace me.
But since they didn't give me a chance, fuck 'em.

fizzgig
(24,146 posts)and there is someone ignoring me for only the twice time since the changeover. i'm really not sure what i did.
LynneSin
(95,337 posts)HeiressofBickworth
(2,682 posts)and was surprised to see that there is one who is ignoring me and one who is blocking mail from me.
I can think of a reason why I'm being ignored but can't figure who it would be
and I can think of a person who might but I don't know why he/she would do so.
So, I guess I'll just keep on doing what I'm doing and ignore that someone is ignoring me. No one need to block any mail since I never send any anyway.

(30,754 posts)and blocking mail.
Only one? LOL. I piss off so many people in my small town that being ignored by one and only one person here is pretty good.

ismnotwasm
(41,998 posts)And recently a post hidden. I've been here since 2004. I'm not the most prolific poster otherwise I suspect the numbers would be higher.
Don't worry about it. Can you imagine ANYBODY ignoring California Peggy? I mean come on now.
And I never ignore anybody, because I'm far too nosy.
Edit because I checked my transparency page and found an additional poor soul deprived of my wisdom
BlancheSplanchnik
(20,219 posts)I've got 4 ignoring and 5 blocking mails!
Huh? Wonder what I did?
And even more, I wonder WHO? It's no fun not knowing the backstory.
Uh.....hello? What's going on? Is the site down or something??
Posteritatis
(18,807 posts)It's pretty much a subtler version of the thing some people do in GD where they go to great lengths to seek out and hide threads on topics they aren't interested in instead of simply not interacting with them.
Orrex
(63,219 posts)I try so hard!
I had never looked at mine, turns out I've got one ignoring me. I'm surprised it's not more as much as I've been drunk while posting here.
derby378
(30,252 posts)I think that means I'm doing something right.
MrScorpio
(73,631 posts)But since I'm the most sweetest, kindest and gentlest person that you'll ever know, not to mention that I'm also very forgiving, I wish no ill to those wonderful folk, by no means at all.
They have their reasons and so be it. As they feel justified to block and ignore me, I also feel justified to block and ignore absolutely no one at all.
Live and let live, my friend.
Orrex
(63,219 posts)How can you stand it?
MrScorpio
(73,631 posts)Perhaps, I've offended them in some way. But I'm content because they're the ones who have taken pains to not reconcile whatever the problem is and not me.
It's their choice and I'm mature enough to cope with the fact that they're free to make it.
Who knows? Things may change later on.

(17,671 posts)It seems to go up every time GD becomes the gungeon annex or another front opens in the word wars.
libodem
(19,288 posts)Gives us all one ignore so nobody feels left out.
Iris

(18,219 posts)Answer: you don't know. Unless someone tells you. I only know this for sure because I had someone tell me that they had been on a jury for my post and they gave me the results.....luckily all leave it with snide comments about the waste of their time. But I never knew about it.
I had one person ignoring me at one point, none now (can't figure that out either, why stop ignoring me if they felt that it was important to them). It rather surprised me, but it didn't bother me at all....the people I like to communicate with were still replying to my posts, so who cares.
Honeycombe8
(37,648 posts)everyone, maybe?
Any time you disagree with someone, esp on certain subjects, someone is probably going to put you on ignore (usu. preceded by an ugly post).
I haven't had a post hidden in the last 90 days, either. But probably those ignoring me alerted some of posts to be hidden. I have a vague recollection of a post hidden a long time ago, but that was a misunderstanding, and the jurors didn't bother to read my post. What I said was offensive...but I was quoting from a prior post and taking the opposite position. Jurors didn't bother to read the post. They just saw the offensive line and hit "hide." C'est la vie.
YOU might consider placing some on ignore in the future. They can't vote on a jury against you.

(19,458 posts)which is SO weird, because I'm really not very controversial. I don't mix it up with anyone, or get into fights or have posts hidden. Guess some people are just pissy...
There was one member, who has been here almost as long as I have, who seems to have some sort of weird cult following here (which I can't figure out,) who wrote something really ridiculous, so I called them out mildly. They responded with such venom at that point... I wrote a PM to them apologizing for my response, and never ever heard back from them (even tho I was definitely the lesser of the two evils in the exchange.) And I got back... crickets... so no doubt that person is one of my ignores.
Of course I've been here over ten years, so I imagine I've collected them along the way.
Robyn66
(1,675 posts)that is just impossible because I am a LOVELY person!!!
defacto7
(13,485 posts)Everyone gets an automatic 2 full ignores when they get to 100 posts. That's what happened to me.
I'm just making that up but there are so many with 2 ignores for no seeming reason I wonder if 2 star members just ignore everyone they find. Now that would be productive.
