Have you tried putting yourself on ignore?
This seems to raise interesting questions, which are perhaps best resolved by a direct test.

But, frankly, I still haven't worked up enough nerve to try it.

Fortunately, there is The Lounge -- filled with many expects having all manner of experience: so perhaps somebody here has tried this critical experiment ... ?

1. Yes, and I can't do it...
So, whenever I see myself posting, I just pretend I'm not here. :hi:

2. I just did.
It says "you cannot add yourself to your ignore list. If you have any questions please contact an administrator."

8. I should. I'm an argumentative bastard.
But I don't try to strangle poultry. That's just silly.

11. I did, several months ago.
It's not possible, nor can you send yourself a private message. I also thought you could send a PM to somebody on ignore, but apparently you can't. Go figure.

17. No, you're probably just not weird enough to
want to ignore yourself. :D

16. Yeah, I've tried. However, if I ignored myself, I'd have no way of
remembering what I just said. I need a new brain.

18. I'm too afraid of ripping a hole in the SpaceTime Continuum.
I am a firm adherent to the belief that
the very final last event in the Universe
will be someone saying "Let's see what happens
if I do THIS..."
