Actually, I am a non-smoker, and if there was a way I could put smokers on "ignore" and not smell or inhale the cigarette smoke, then I guess I wouldn't mind sitting in the smoking section. Not sure what that has to do with ignoring folks on a BBS though.
Well BBSs are populated by people with different and abrasive opinions many would style as "offensive" much like smoking sections are populated by smokers - it's an inextricable package deal. Ignore them is missing out on the full BBS experience.
I ignore people who present themselves as idiots and who don't add any entertainment value. I've never been accused of being overly sensitive, but since you say so, maybe it's time I unplug my computer.
Well, it's entirely your choice: maybe it is time you went for that beach walk, maybe not.

I like my BBS idiots and all: it's all entertaining to me, but there again, I'm an out-patient at the Centre for the Easily Amused.
