Block just one Caucus?

Is there a way to see everything except one Caucus.

Like for example the LDL Caucus. I can't reply and refute those articles, so I don't even want to see them. To me they are just propaganda that makes the FR experience much less enjoyable.

If you have a problem with Low Density Lipoprotein, it’s time to see your doctor about Lipitor.

[big'ol_freeper]

Don’t have an eye for “cauci” huh?

[svcw]

I sympathize with your question. I guess when you sign in you can change your preferences to just “news”. Its sad though on FR there are posters who wish to stifle free exchange of thought and ideas.

C’mon now, ignoring a cholesterol problem won’t make it go away.

[DannyTN]

Well, it’s just that those Low Density Lipoproteinites beliefs are so bizarre.

[Nervous Tick]

I know what you mean. I wish there was a way to block “it’s all about me” vanities from people too lazy and self-important to simply skip posts they don’t wish to read.

Such vanities make the “FR experience” less enjoyable. But on a one to ten scale, even with stupid vanities, FR rates a solid 9, just below orgasm. So I just force myself to GET OVER IT.

There is a special tool you use, hold your hand up about eye level, move it towards your face, feel the little area between your eye-lid and eye-brow, that serves as a hinge, it allows you to close your eyes.

You should take on the burden of evangelizing those Lipoproteins. Get them to recognize that even if it is bound to LDL it is still cholesterol. They will come around eventually. Remember to point out to them that no matter what you call the particle it is still the presence of Apo B that makes it a particle. In the end all three particles are the same person. They will see it.

But what if it really *is* all about them?

[Tax-chick]

Maybe a change of diet would help.

No one is stifling anything, FR is offering a lot of different options for what type of conversation you want to take part in. Some are knock down, drag out fights, others are more reverent like you are in church. If you want to discuss an issue in a 'caucus' thread in which you are not part of the caucus, that person can just start an open thread on the subject.

Yeah ... and those women! I can't control myself around them, so they all need to wear a hijab, a burka AND and army tent! < /muzzie logic >

If you don't like a particular type thread ... don't click on it. I have no use, for example, for Spurgeon's Daily Devotionals ...

So I don't bloody click on them!

"But what if it really *is* all about them?"

There is a greater chance that the Hokey Pokey is what it's all about.

>> But what if it really *is* all about them?

Dumb question. It CANNOT POSSIBLY be all about them!

(Because it’s all about ME. I know that for a fact.)

;-)

[DannyTN]

True, but I don’t want to start a thread everytime an LDS article gets posted in the Caucus format.

I’d rather just block it as a personal preference and not see it.

[mnehring]

...but I don’t want to...

Then the problem lies with you, not the caucus thread.

[DannyTN]

As many LDS threads get started on here it’s a lot like SPAM.

The problem isn’t with SPAM, it’s always with the personal preference of the user’s who don’t want to see it.

Careful. That's soon to be "hate speech" in Scotland.

Come now, reading about bad cholesterol won’t make you a Bad Person. ;-)
