Lol, let's be really divisive and all espouse how much we personally love or hate tattoos.

Perhaps something like the Good Cap't swinging from a yard arm!!!!Maybe we should all get a tattoo or something
Tattoo's do nothing for me.
My brother and I were at Bakers Hill getting some lunch yesterday and in walked a young female about 24, absolutely covered in ink on the exposed parts of her body.
Her back was completely inked over.
To us wasn't attractive to look at, in fact it made her look as if she had been groveling in a mud pit.
Without the body ink, I reckon she would have turned most heads to admire her physical beauty.

Is this Miss Piggy reincarnated.
No tattoo needed on her.
She is a standout and stand alone, steer clear.

Whether people choose to interact with others is a matter for the individual, imo, a "nanny state" approach of a block is not warranted.
Simply not replying to posts that offend is the best way of ignoring them, and I trust the moderators to delete messages that are actually abusive if they feel it's warranted.

@SirRumpole, I appreciate your perspective. Fostering a positive community environment is crucial, and we can do this by promoting respect and inclusivity. As members, we have a responsibility to maintain a culture of respect, engage in constructive discussions, and avoid personal attacks. By doing so, we create a space where diverse perspectives are valued, and everyone feels comfortable sharing their thoughts. Healthy dialogue benefits everyone, and respectful interactions contribute to a thriving community.

I couldn't agree more with all of the comments above. The value of this community lies in the accumulated knowledge and the civilised nature of the discussions. Our community should be a space where people can exchange ideas and opinions without resorting to petty point-scoring or personal attacks. I'm grateful to be a part of this community.

Good morning Professor.
Thankyou for bringing these past posts to light.
This is a terrific site and if someone gets up the left nostril well it is so easy to "just pass on by".

I can block @Chipp but then would have to log on anonymously to read his valuable input.
As a long term resident of this forum, I am definitively in favour of limited block:
Once you know the local population, some are not only always right..they might be Einsteins..i am not. but also unable to comprehend and take into account facts or real world figures..not talking opinions there and life is too short to even scroll past.
And then there are the pump and ramp, scammers etc etc but Joe does an amazing job cleaning these.
My view is if I would not enjoy a chat in a cafe, a meeting with someone in the real life, why should I in a virtual world.
And ignoring is my solution.
Roughly 30 on my ignore list..just checked..most spammers etc but yes a small dozen of real active members

This..
Also (as per post #327 above) use of the Ignore function on threads and posters.
Faith in the Mods to act in the best interests.

Hi Skate..
Recent posts in this thread are encouraging...
However, Human Nature being what it is, will probably prevail, so it will be interesting to see who is going to crawl out of the woodwork....
Cheers M8..

@DrBourse, you’ve made an astute observation!
How people express themselves often provides insight into their underlying beliefs, attitudes, and perspectives.
While human nature can indeed be predictable, our community members need to recognise the importance of maintaining a respectful and constructive environment. By doing so, we create a space where meaningful exchanges of ideas can occur, fostering a positive atmosphere.
It’s possible to convey a message without resorting to personal attacks - after all, our community thrives on evidence-based discussions rather than emotional reactions. However, as you rightly pointed out, some individuals may resist receiving the message or struggle to comprehend it fully.

I occasionally use the "BLOCK" and Highly Recommend it!-----
I use it with great Discretion------
In my mind the ASF Forum is a Great Forum and tries to cater for all-------
However some believe this is like a Community
It is like calling FB'ers and X 'ers etc etc a Community
I am only interested in Buying and Selling ASX Shares and as you all may know
" Sailing the Global Exchange is The Greatest Sport of Them All" IMHO
I am Not interested in Cocktail Conversations of Current affairs,
Cocktail Conversations of Cultural Dieticians etc etc
I am also Not Interested in the Million "One Liners" barracking for their Share as if we are in their Grandstand
I found that the MAJORITY of these posts and emails a total waist of time to read and all too Abundant
Crikey! For One who Hates Cocktail Conversations at XMAS parties
How much work can be done if you entertain Cocktail Conversations during Business hours for the Whole Week in any Business?
It's a Pity that so many Great Members have been lost because they did not know how to BLOCK the Thousands of UNWELCOME time wasting posts and Emails
and Then there is " The Feud" in my case
That is a Long Story and they are all Blocked for Life
Like Capote in his Feud with the Swans on Foxtel " I Hate being Gang Tackled"
BTW Joe, I am Loving this Forum more than Ever because I am in Control in what comes into my E mail box and have much more time to make better decisions

Agree there , Capt ' n .
Great forum , but , just like Facebook and Twitter, it can be a great time waster if I'm not careful with it . I'm only human and ...... love gossip . So , have to force myself to ignore a lot of it . Work to be done ! "Follow the money " ! That's why I'm here .
Sdajji 's # 309 post is the best one on this thread . Don't always agree with him ( Just had another mRNA Covid booster , myself ! ) but admire the effort he puts into his posts . I have just one thread on Ignore : "The Moscow Stockmarket Today " . Seeing that scheit just does my head in . " Lefties " again , see . Agh , live and let live . Bless 'em all . Cheers .

@Joe Blow I don't know whether this is possible but could it be coded where if one has been blocked that there is some notification that there is a blocked post?
The reason being is that one can misinterpret somebody's Post if one doesn't realize that it is in answer to somebody else that they can't see, if that makes sense.

Unfortunately its not really feasible to make any modifications or improvements to the blocking feature. It's third party developed functionality that has effectively been abandoned by the developer. I'm better off trying to find an alternative blocking plugin, but at the moment there isn't really anything that fits the bill.
So we kind of have to just accept it for what it is and I will keep an eye out for any alternatives should they become available.
