Reminder about Alert Prefences

[Constitutional Sheepdog]

I had kinda forgotten about that. Haven't given it much thought in a long time. Not really an option for a Moderator.

As a mod you must have an open door policy

Not for a moderator, of course. But it's a good option for the rest of us.

You can disable receiving alerts for all kinds of things. You can disable ratings and tag alerts and even reply alerts. Just click on your name in the top tool bar then click on "Alert Preferences" in the dropdown menu and start unchecking boxes. I disabled ratings alerts long ago. You can disable alerts when you are tagged in posts by unchecking the "Mentions you in a message" box.

If you're opposed to the ratings system, why do you utilize it, yourself?

Utilizing and abusing are not the same thing.

 

[MrMike]

Utilizing and abusing are not the same thing.

All in the eye of the beholder...

Those who feel they are victims tend to always fall on the left and desire censorship. Why is that?

 

[Jen]

Utilizing and abusing are not the same thing.

Why do you assume that others are abusing the system? It's your opinion......... and not necessarily reality.

 

[Constitutional Sheepdog]

Utilizing and abusing are not the same thing.

When I rate it's because it's deserved in my opinion and I don't whin when I get a negative rating.
So there's that opinion.

Oh...sooo….."that's different"...?

I know it when I see it and I saw it from the very beginning and I knew exactly who would do it and I use "Alert Preferences" instead of "Ignore" to filter out the bullshit.

 

[bdtex]

Oh...sooo….."that's different"...?

Yes they are and you know the difference too.

A mod using the ignore function amazing
He's yet to comment to any of my post directed to him.

I'm not a moderator so I don't need to look for anyone abusing the ratings. I can say, though, that I don't abuse the ratings and I don't believe that anyone who is rating my posts is abusing the ratings.

I guess I just assume that since I know I'm not abusing them and I'm pretty sure nobody is abusively rating my posts ..... it's not really a problem.

I'm certainly not accusing everyone of doing it and I don't need to name names. They know who they are and only the newbies don't know who they are.

 

[Bear Claw]

I have an idea and put three on ignore for a while.

I'm not a victim. I disabled the signature crap and most of the alerts crap years ago.

Then quit acting like one.

I signed up at PF and did not realize email quote alerts were on, I rarely check email but when I did, I had over a thousand. Yep, I turned it off!

Why anyone wants email alerts when sites have alerts, is weird.

I'm not acting like a victim. Quit threadjacking.
