So what do you say about an alias name? E.g Batty Bat

Bedwyn I have not said I agree or disagree with the 'Friends & Foes' set up! It never even came to mind untill the discussion on here. I personally do NOT have anyone as a Foe.
It just struck me as odd that it bothered anyone very much because it's so common to have this set up, and most people are aware of this and accept it!
Jon is unable to remove it, as he said it's part of the set up. I really can't understand why it is bothering you so much. Like most websites, you are able to choose who you correspond with (or not,) and to be honest that's not a bad thing as what is acceptable to some isn't to others. This is just my personal view, but I'm sure other members aren't bothered by it, and I really don't know why you are.
PS I am feeling slightly attacked by you at the moment, am I to now class you as a 'foe'? (joking.)

That's a good point Batty! Most people on here are not using their real name, which I definitely DON'T have any problem with, but lets face it anyone could come on here with half a dozen names and say just what they want! So that makes the 'friend/foe' set up quite unimportant!
I think I'll be Cedric! ;) ;)

Bedwyn you are being VERY childish abut this !! The foe list works the same way as in real life - if I dont like someone then I will go out of my way to avoid them. Same on here - there are people on here who in my opinion talk alot of rubbish and I avoid them .... whats the problem ??

We have a really obnoxious neighbour and she really irritates me so I block her. She asks for money for cigarettes and electricity and I say "No" and look the other way. (she's in a wheelchair, by the way) If I had a foe's list for ordinary day to day life I'd use it.

You'll all think I'm heartless now ignoring the poor woman in the wheelchair but I have my reasons.

I'm really glad there is a foe's list on here and I have four names on it. This means I only have to see their posts if I want to (and I rarely want to)

Good for you Sunshine, it's known as 'choice'. :-)

I dont think you're heartless Sunshine. Years ago my sister had a neighbour just like it - a lady in a wheelchair - and she was so bad we had to creep past her door to get in and out (my sister was in a 2nd floor flat and the woman was ground floor). If she caught us and we didnt help her with whatever it was that day she would get abusive :(
Like you - I have 4 on my foe list and I put them there because things they posted made me annoyed, angry or just plain irritated me. Life is too short for me to deal with irritations that can easily be removed - hence I think the foe list is a wonderful idea :)

I will add that I have a feeling that at least 2 on my list are one and the same person - just with 2 separate accounts ;)

Yes, I agree. But, not only that. They love complementing each other. :lol: :lol: :lol: :roll: :roll:
