Ignore Option?

[Petrosian]

Fang is being seriously annoying. He's spamming all over for me to change my sig, and he's spamming my message box too. Is there any way I can just ignore him?

[Waffle-SS]

Nein. Besides, its much better to fix the problem than ignore it. Fang, may I ask why you're doing this?

Don't laugh at people with ADD
I have ADD and I take that very offensively. Also, I only said 'change your sig' twice.

EDIT:once in a topic;that post probably got deleted. and one in a message in which he replied, "Shut up."

Unfortunately, there is no way to block PMs. I'd recommend changing your sig if it's that much of a hassle, but tell me if Fang continues to bug you. Fang, -15 postcount for now, don't continue or it'll be more.

Fang, I'd assume Petrosian HAS ADD, which is why he has it in his sig. He's poking fun at the fact that he has ADD. Hell, my brother's friend has an arm that is underdeveloped, and I think it only has 3 fingers and is really small or something. According to my brother, he makes jokes about his arm all the time and stuff. Don't be so quick to take offense.

When I was 5 I was thrown on the ground on cracked glass just because I have ADD. Everytime I see ADD it reminds me of it and makes me want to throw somthing Which WILL hurt someone/thing and get me in trouble. I am very sensitive and can get ticked off really easily. Besides, It my buisness and only mine. >.>

Actually, I know how to deal with a situation like this (one of the few times AP Psychology has come in handy).

Fang, you're reacting to the wrong stimulus. The kid who pushed you on the ground is who you should be mad at, not ADD itself. What you're doing is the same thing that causes kids to be afraid of ridiculous things like bunny rabbits. Instead of reacting to the stimuli that cause you pain, you draw the conclusion that it was ADD's fault, which is a flaw in judgment.

Fear/hatred usually react this way:

1. Something happens to cause anger/fear while you are doing something that may or may not be related to the cause of said anger/fear. In this case, let's use the example of a small child playing with their pet rabbit. While they are playing, a vase falls off a nearby table and breaks, which scares the child.

2. The subject associates the unwanted feelings with the other stimuli. In the example, the child would associate fear with the rabbit instead of the loud noise of the vase breaking.

3. After this, the subject avoids the stimuli to relieve themselves of the unwanted emotions, thus reinforcing their want to avoid the stimuli. In the bunny example, the child would later run away from rabbits to avoid the fear. Once the discomfort of fear is gone, the child is relieved and believes that avoiding causes the lack of discomfort and continues to avoid rabbits.

4. The feelings of anger/fear continue to show up, until the subject is shown that such feelings are unnessicary and pointless. In the example, the child continues to fear the rabbit until he/she chooses (or is forced) to face their fear of rabbits. After being exposed to rabbits, and proved that they are harmless, the feelings eventually go away. In your case, you have to realize that ADD isn't directly causing those troubles. It was an entirely different stimulous all together, and you're being unreasonable by shunning all mention of ADD.

The point is: You're anger towards the mention of ADD is unjustified, so you should stop being so sensitive. It's not ADD's fault you got pushed into the glass, or whatever happened, it's the fault of the person who pushed you.

[Fang]

I know, I know, I'm too sensitive, blah blah blah.
(I'm saying this to my self, not any one at all. Just me.)
(I know I'm retarded.)

Actually, you can block PMs.
