Dear Bob

Good thinking, Detlef. (http://www.rhb-grischun.ca/phpBB2/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif)

Oh dear! The following is strictly my opinion!

  1. One can read posts and/or threads selectively

  2. There is no compulsion to read everything

  3. There is no compulsion to comment everything, be it with “cute” GIFs or never ending “.”

Now back to my Piz Styrofoam which is destined for the garden; the sooner the better since I really need that work table.

Shut up Rooster!!

No, it currently doesn’t but Bob is looking at options. The way it is supposed to work doesn’t really make sense. If I were to “Block” you my posts would not appear to you. Quite opposite to the way one would think it should work.

The Mark As Read button works quite well though.

I continue to be mystified by the ‘need’ for blocking. From a simple common sense standpoint, surely a sensible person would look to see WHO has responded firstly rather than WHAT the response is. This would surely calm the angst of the many tender souls that inhabit this site before their heart rate spirals.

However, as always there are the ambulance chasers seeking to make a ‘noise’ (some do it in a blustery amateur manner while others do it such that it is they who are the apparent hapless victim to gain some sympathy).

yes, but at least, because i could not read your posts, i would not be able to make “witty” remarks about what you wrote.

Korm, why did you restart this? Do you just like to stir the pot?

steve, not intentionally.
i just thought, that the thread, where i anounced that i was taking a break, was the right plkace to say that my break was broken.
but you are right. it stirred the pot.

Everyone leave it alone, eh? Or have you forgotten that Im in a foul mood about how people are behaving on the site?

And, WB Korm.
