Some things about notable Viv users and members
-
Wow, Tsunami has now (actually 11hrs ago, but I’ve read it now) said This is done instead of Updated first post in one of their threads
Unfortunately is wasn’t a feature request.
-
@Steffie I just couldn't believe it: I posted my comment and… there was another tera-gazillion of suggestions, a whole new bunch. Appalling! And I don't want to be «numerically challenged» either. As for mow, my «Unreads» is cleared up and, I must admit it, pretty lovely .
-
@potmeklecbohdan Excellent. Thanks for sharing, as Tsunami was the first user I blocked

Yep, that was very much also my reaction, each time it [kept on] happening to me.

OK now i know this is going to sound quite silly, but each time it happened, despite my efforts to stop it, i felt like it was a kind of personal failure on my part, & so it distressed me. Since i gave up & just blocked them, i definitely feel a restored sense of equanimity. That is, it has returned me to my standard level of idiocy, without that yukky extra layer.
-
@Steffie It doesn't sound silly, I've too this feeling that I shouldn't block people. But, in the end…f--k. I'm not here to be bothered by a mega-tera-billion requests from one user or conspiracy theories or so on. So, let's joyfully block the trolls. I feel better afterwards .
-
I never block anyone, some amuse me more and others less. I see it as a kind of sociological study that broadens horizons.
-
@Catweazle I imagine that your post is probably witty, droll & sophisticated. However given i have blocked you i can neither read your post, nor indeed even know that you have posted at all.

Fun Fact: from the very same user on Edge's site (bottom of post):
*to avoid a ban from Google, I submit only limited post pro week.
The user already inundated Edge with requests (haven't they sunk yet? ), but it seems a whole different affair with Chrome… no way to besiege them. Damned Google better at protecting their forum?

@potmeklecbohdan Welcome to the club .
But you won't be spared from seeing other users' replies to their posts. We can't have it all, can we? -
@Gwen-Dragon said in Some things about notable Viv users and members:
i do never use Edge
Neither do I. Anyway, I can't, there's no mac version AFAIK. Hallelujah . Not that I would be interested .

OMZ, we only just dodged a calamity here.
If @Hadden89 had posted a third one there at that time, there'd have been a thunderclap, a bright flash, then a crazy man with excessive face-paint, wild hair & OTT laugh would have suddenly appeared.
Phew!
Spoiler
Oh wait, no ... he just got voted out -- huzzah!
PS: IMPORTANT - Dear @Hadden89 i must emphasise - i am riffing off you purely as an example, NOT in any way trying to be mean to you.
-
@Steffie That's not fair : one is a valuable contributor , the other one a kolossal Katastrophe .
-
It seems another round of requests has started pouring down.
-
@hlehyaric Haha, nice.
I still lean to the view it's a spambot not an actual human.
-
@Steffie Another one…
-
@Steffie Unbelievable! You may be right indeed: the serial poster has just posted another suggestion (I've seen it on the forum homepage).
-
@hlehyaric This is pathetic. It's really putting my teeth on edge. I feel like i am teetering on the edge. Are we living on the edge of reason now? Why on earth have i begun blending memes from unrelated threads here? It must be an edge-case.

@Steffie You like pushing the game to the edge, don't you? :smiling_face_with_open_mouth_cold_sweat:
I'm wondering: should I switch to Linux to get the chance to test that new browser at the cutting edge of innovation?
