I have been here a few years now and over that period I have come to recognise the names of posters whose only aim is to cause animosity. Some have made many posts and over the term of their membership have used multiple forum names. My list has many names but, in reality, I am probably only blocking half a dozen men. There are those on my list who have been placed in the Doghouse and who haven't posted since their incarceration. So, my list needs a little bit of weeding.
You have been here a long time and you too could easily guess the names of those who are on my list. I don't block people because they do not agree with my stated views. I only block idiots who, being incapable of making meaningful contributions themselves, derive their enjoyment from abusing others. I don't like to see other people treated badly and it is not necessary for an individual to abuse me before he figures on my list. I identify idiots and block them.
