Ditto. Ping lists should be banned.

What an annoyance to have to send a message to be removed. Some of the busy-bodies think that, just because you live in a particular State, you need to be notified of every little non-event pertaining to your State.

This site has deteriorated dramatically over the past few years. I could give a rats-behind about some of the postings, so I never read them. I browse headlines --- Quickly. Sorta like how I read through the voluminous material I receive every day.

My flame-retardant suit is ON. So, kiss off.

Some people like to be notified of certain threads, especially if they only log on to FR once every few days.

No, they consider it a friendly gesture to draw your attention to things happening in your area, believing you might find it of interest. No one sets out to offend, just to inform. If you're not interested, fine, but that's no reason to slur the poster as a "busy body."
