You forgot another one though which would have got my vote - 'I put people that annoy me on ignore, stay within the site rules and then the mods will leave me alone'.

Re: Advice please
You missed off the 'think that I am a needlessly self indulgent poster that requires constant reassurance that I am doing the right thing' option. That's the one I'd go for!

Re: Advice please
1) you cant put mods on ignore
2) people can still quote the people who annoy you, and then you up seeing it anyway.
3) even people I like can post annoying\incorrect stuff

Re: Advice please
I went for #1
My advice would actually be that if this place is getting to you, then take a break in the real world and see how you feel about it in a few weeks, if you can stay away that long. Not that you seem all that inclined to listen to the mods...

2) again, true - no way round that I'm afraid
3) then politely disagree with them

I wanted to vote "give it a rest FFS" but that option wasn't there.
