Describe the posters on your ignore list without using their usernames.


Recommended Posts

1.  Mainly posts on the sports boards, especially baseball.  Doesn't actually read threads because he so regularly posts links/tweets that have already been posted that others regularly reply to other people reposting things with sarcastic "Thanks, _____."  

2.  Complete troll who I've never seen make a post that's longer than a single sentence.  He seems to be on every board.  Lots of people have him on ignore apparently, as many posters complain about others quoting him.

3.  Likes to remind people that he lives in Highland Park.  Has all the solutions for the declining engagement on SurlyHorns and other various societal ills, even though he's clearly out of touch.   Is on his third username even though he regularly denies it.  

4.  Big supporter of Trump and Musk.  Is actually smart enough that his defenses of the two can sometimes sound reasonable superficially.  Widely recognized as the poster most likely to be a Russian troll.

5.  In a board of whiney pussies, this one bitches the absolute most on football game threads.  He has taken his act to the Longhorn baseball thread even though he doesn't know how a pitcher is awarded a statistical "win."

1. raging asshole, troll, banned

2. raging asshole, troll, banned

3. raging asshole, troll, not banned but had to change usernames because he's universally hated, i.e., the Ted Cruz of Surly, a truly miserable sob

I put someone on ignore several years ago because his only posts were the same stupid fucking trope every time: 

not enough thoughts and prayers

it’s a feature not a bug

This is America 

All the same stuff that does absolutely nothing to generate discussion. Since then there have been a bunch of other posters pick up the stupid fucking trope flag so maybe my ignore list should be much longer.

Yall actually put posters in ignore? 

I tend to feel this way, but there is one on my list.  Insufferable prick who just deserved an ass whoopin if we ever met in person. 1000% keyboard big mouth, but I'm pretty sure he no longer posts here.  Could probably turn it off, but why now?  LOL.

I read threads quickly and can often read a post without really knowing who is writing it. My ignore list contains people I don’t wish to engage with as well as people who I think are stupid enough that I don’t want to accidentally read what they say without clicking on their name first.
