THIS IA A TEST TO SEE IF THAT FATASS SLYNNE HAS EVERYONE IN HER TWIT FILTER Mark Unseen   Oct 17 20:51 UTC 2003

She claimed in the partial birth abortion thread that EVERYONE is in her twit
filter. Therefore the  test
52 responses total.

Oh good grief.  Slynne is probably in the list of top ten people the least
likely to have a twit filter.  Do you believe everything people tell you?

She made the claim herself.

re #0:  In Usenet parlance, I think it goes something like this:  YHBT. HAND.

re 1 janc, do you filter anyone?

Personally I never understood the reasoning behind "twit filters".  If I
wanted to "twit filter" I wouldn't even log into m-net in the first
place.  I would put my hands over my ears and shout out "I'm not
Listening" at the top of my voice and I would keep an Sharpie(TM) majic
marker on the dash when I drive the car to mark off those part of my
glasses where unpleasant or ignorant things are seen.

I think of it as evolution in action.  Anyone stupid enough to use twit
filters will probably be stupid enough to not be able to successfully
breed (like russ?) and so the trait removes itself from the gene pool
eventually.

resp:8 Everyone's got an opinion.  I still note that you can still 
look at responses with a filter on if you want.  Just takes a little 
more time.

re#8
True...russ is a total idiot.
re#9 and 10
HaHa..I see you had seconds thoughts on your reponse#9
I know how to read it anyway..nothing is lost on this system...HaHa
Really I mean it. It is still readable. Just look in /h1b/bbs/censored.
WHoop whoop there it IS.
 And if this item is so invisible why are you postong to it? Has all that fat
cut off circulation to your cerebral cortex?

Re 7:  I filter out everyone smarter than me, so that I can maintain the sense
of being the smartest person on Grex.  You'll have noticed that I never
respond to md, remmers, or mcnalley.

Sorry pvn, but I recently started using a twit filter.  (Obviously,
you're not on it (yet).)  Guess my standing with you just went down
the tubes, eh?  I'll leave it to the smarter Grexers to figure out
who I'm filtering.

I m getting tired of sabre. His items are dumb. But, we do have 
interesting spin-offs. 

I don't have a twit-filter, mainly because I'm too lazy to figure out 
how to use one. Also, I believe that scrolling past a response I don't 
want to read works just as fine. Twit filters would come in handy for 
times when a twit has been posting all over agora, and you get excited 
seeing that there are 34 new responses, and you find that they're all 
posted by the twit, and like you've wasted your time following his 
inane postings around. Yeah, I guess a twit filter would be good in 
those cases. But like I said, I'm lazy. And those instances are too 
rare for me to bother.

Well, I have to guess that Dr. Remmers is using the twit filter on 
sabre.  Nothing interesting there, so why not blank it out?

There are so many fun ways a person like sabre could disrupt some poor 
bbs he's decided to pick on.  The method he picked -- thumping his 
chest, threatening people, accusing people of being thin-skinned or 
humorless when nobody laughs at his unfunny posts, explaining why 
people ignore him by saying they're intellectually inferior to him, 
yada yada yada -- requires no special skill, and consequently is just 
dull and predictable.  We've seen it lots of times before.  Anybody 
could do it.  Janc could write a bot to do, fer chrissake.  "Egotism is 
the anesthetic for the pain of being stupid."

So, here's the challenge: if you wanted to come to grex or mnet and 
really, really shake things up, how would you do it?

To use a twit filter, type (at the start of a line)  ignore sabre
Next time you log on, all of sabre's responses will appear blank.
Unfortunately if sabre was the last one to post in an item, you still
have to look at that item (as a blank).  If you want to add a name to
your twit filter, you have to type in all the previous names as well
as the new one or you will only filter the new one.

It seems that the using a twit filter will not solve the only problem 
for which I would want to use the twit-filter. Oh well.

Questioning policy seems to be the most reliable method so far of 
shaking things up on mnet/grex.

resp:19 - Well, one time I tried to make a pseudo that would shake 
things up. I tried to come up with a personality that was about as 
offensive as I could think of. I said all kinds of mean and nasty 
things to folks. And do you know what they did? They LAUGHED at me. Oh 
the horror!
