I am back on FR after a year away, and find I'm already being put on ping lists. I appreciate the compliment and think it a generous gesture. However, I do not now have time for them. I don't have time to figure out which I would enjoy. I do not have the time to ask to be removed; I have freemail I haven't had time to answer. So my messages are backing up, and I suppose that's just how it has to be. If only it was possible to "flip a switch," say, on the profile page, so that you couldn't be included in long lists of people in the TO: field. That would fix this so easily, if it is workable, and with no hurt feelings.

Just my two cents...and this isn't the kind of problem so severe it warrants getting angry with other caring conservatives!

What a perfect solution to the problem. If there are more than X number of semi-colons in the "To:" line then the freeper can choose in the "My Preferences" section to disallow their inclusion in the "My comments" section. The code should be easy to write and would solve a lot of problems.
