Except with me, unfortunately, though I tried. Some things could have been avoided if it were otherwise. I've got a constant eye on Forgiveness Sunday, gz.I am, of course, willing to discuss this over PM with most people.
I think the only thing keeping me hear is that one inquirer waiting to ask a question needing an answer.
This is some really good, practical advice. No wonder you are always so cheery here. You are like my father-in-law who gradually became hard of hearing and thus no longer heard his wife’s nagging. He became noticeably less bilious as he aged.Haven't heard any more on this thread. I was wondering if Rus is over his, to quote the Clash, "Should I Stay or Should I Go" mode and back to being with us again?
Let me just say this Rus---THE IGNORE BUTTON ROCKS! I haven't heard hardly any socialism or liberalism or other insanity in a long time. It's wonderful! Hit that ignore button, and suddenly people willing to sell their political soul to abortion, LGBTism, and secular humanism evaporate. I highly recommend it.
It is my belief, Rus, that there are a couple of posters who are not truly Orthodox. I will not name them. Since any Tom, Dick, or Harry can come on TAW and pose as Orthodox, and we have no power to call them to the carpet (thought I wish we could!), we have to live around this. What you do is hit the IGNORE BUTTON and their hostile diatribe becomes part of the phantom zone. Evidently someone attacked my character in here. I'm not sure who it was though I could guess. But the beauty is, I don't know what they said nor do I care anymore! I just read whom I want to read. The static noise is gone. Look into it, brother!
It’s a good way to avoid being disputatious. I used to get in arguments a lot, but by focusing on my own comments, rather than what anybody else might say, I find myself in much greater agreement with opinions at TAW.I can attest that the ignore function is indeed quite helpful. Of course, I generally only read my own comments, anyway.
yep, this is the main reason I stick around
I wonder how long we would last before FB decided we were undesirables.I was going to say if the rules are becoming too oppressive here then maybe we should start a FB group just for members of this subforum, and we can invite others as we see fit.

Not long. Trolls abound and they love to report traditionalists. Liberals in real life use Antifa; online they use the report button more than a toilet flusher!!
