I have discovered that putting someone in KF does no good, they just keep
showing on other posts of people I read. I just wish we could drop some of the stuff and move on back to our "family" type caring. Yeah, I know old lady wants harmony and life isn't like that. |

Having someone in your killfile works for messages posted by the individuals in question (until they change their posting name), but when other people quote them in replies you still see them. I find that "ignore thread" can be a big help sometimes too. |

I know what you mean, Granby. I too wish people would stop all this stuff
and get back into our 'family' type caring thing you mentioned. I too want peace and harmony, and I too know life isn't like that.

You could do what I sometimes do, put the title of the thread into a news
message rule so it doesn't appear on your screen. Also handy for common spam words or phrases, I don't see too many of those these days.

Hmmm, I may have to try that if things get that bad. We must get this place back to being fun again. I loathe all this fussing and fighting. Hugs Kyla |

I've been on UseNet since the beginning of time without a killfile. There's little point to them if they DO keep you from seeing someone's messages and less if they don't. Of course, I am the soul of kindness and never give anyone a hard time and only person in all that time has come to New Haven with the stated intention of doing me bodily harm. -- Will in New Haven |

Of course, I am the soul of kindness and never give anyone a hard time and only person in all that time has come to New Haven with the stated intention of doing me bodily harm. There are only two people who live permanantly in my killfile. Neither post to this group, but they are perpetual 'spammers' of the groups they are in - not spam as in UCE, but just strange stream-of-conciousness stuff of an obviously disturbed mind. The regular folks in the NGs they are in pay them no mind either, such that unless some newbie comes along and replies with the usual "WTF?" the regulars in the NGs often forget they are there. As for here, I can usually sense where a thread is heading and just skip over the worst of it until the the thread pattern looks like its back to non-flaming chat (the 'shape' of the thread is different). Occasionally folks do end up in my killfile for a little while but thats so I don't blast off a fiery post in response, rather than any punishment to them. Once I calm down, out they come again and we go merrily on our way, with me promising myself that *this time* I'll show a bit more personal restraint rather than relying on the KF. :-) Currently no-one from RPCA is in there.
