Look, the petty attacks are coming from a select few Obama/Hillary supporters.

[Drunken Irishman]

And it's really not fair to clump ALL Obama or Hillary supporters into one group. Frankly, I think it's absurd to suggest this mud-slinging is only coming from Obama supporters, since yesterday it was Pile on Barack Day. It sucks there are supporters of each candidate who feel the need to drag each candidate down at every chance they get instead of building their own candidate up. But it happens and it's disingenuous to suggest it's only coming from the Obama camp.

1. DU is a pretty peaceful place for me now that I've put about 40

troublemakers on Ignore.

And the good threads with rational discussions never seem to have posts from these 40 anyway. All they do is make trouble. They aren't contributing to the discourse.

7. Can you post your "ignore" list,

I´m curious if my name is on it O8)

8. Angela if you do not get an answer,

I guess you will know. :)

12. Thanks Big Blue Marble for not ignoring me

:yourock:

[tammywammy]

16. LOL

:rofl:

[kestrel91316]

14. Lol, I can read your reply to my post, so you're not on the list.

Yet. :evilgrin:

17. Dennis Kucinich rocks!

... does that help?

13. Downloadable/shared ignore lists would be another handy DU feature

Could save everyone a lot of painstaking one-by-one additions.

Sort of like having the latest virus definitions.

19. My list may crash the server

[IDemo]

20. Yeah, I was actually going to post a comment like that as well..

:hi:

2. There you go talking sense again.

It's all about the ignore button. I only have 12 people on ignore, and it's nice and peaceful. ;)

[no_hypocrisy]

3. Or Karl Rove and his minions disguised by pseudonyms.

Even trolls can assume mellifluous appellations.

4. Ask us Edwards supporters.

We were stalked all through the campaign by DU's Obama supporters.

Not disingenuous. True.

[pampango]

5. Just put 2 or 3 on ignore from both sides and you eliminate 95% of the crap.

And still get to discuss issues and strategy with all the good posters on all sides. :)

[featherman]

6. I have 15 on ignore and it's helped

I just reserve it for the rude, crude, stupid, and offensive.

[Big Blue Marble]

11. I have over forty.

And it really does help to keep my stress levels down. LOL

[southern_dem]

9. yep

They may be loud, but they are the minority. Most DU posters are sensible; they are just drowned out by the Obama/Hillary bots that are posting every 5 seconds.

[IDemo]

10. Minor quibble here

doesn't "select" normally mean of a highest quality or superior grade?

[MethuenProgressive]

15. BUT SHE CRIED!!

What's "disingenuous" mean?



:hi:

[VolcanoJen]

18. Excellent post.
