    The only change the Blazers asked us to make was no swear words in the thread titles and I think I'm the only who blew that one, lol.

    I read most posts and I have a good memory. No need for notes.

    For me personally, I generally "ignored" her posts just fine without using the ignore feature. What is much more difficult to ignore is the myriad arguments her style generated, and the generally vitriolic tenor she brought to the board. Even without reading her posts, the impact of the condescension was noticeable and unpleasant, and prompted me to avoid threads in which she was active. Even the BF-v-BFW thread--in which I expressed intrigue in the outcome--quickly became tiresome and unreadable.

    It's not about the individual poster; it's about the impact that the individual poster had on the community. I never had a problem with BF directly--in fact, we often disagreed but still got along quite well--but I certainly don't doubt that the board as a whole will actually be better without her.

    Go into settings and change your post view from 25 to 40 posts per page. Then the thread is only 14 pages long.

    How long is the PapaG thread under my current settings? Is it 22 pages under the 40 posts per page? Or 22 pages under the 25 posts per page?
