jpj,
You wrote,[...emphasizing the word was my intent, not suggesting it to others...].
Yes, that is what I wanted to know when I asked you why the word, "ignore' was in all caps. I wanted to rule out the potential for any misunderstanding and I am glad that you were just emphisizing the word for reasons that you have explained.
You see, in some cases, the putting of a word in all capitals could have the potential to be considered by some to be a suggestion and that is why I asked for you to rule that out, and you did.
You wrote,[...I know I sometimes get carried away in my own ways...].
I appreciate you making that point, for all we like humans can be carried away...].
You wrote,[...to have a nudge for a self-check...].
If this means that you were indicating that others could ignore me if I was to continue posting in more than 3 consecutive posts, could you give me some more infomation on that that could cause that to happen? If you meant something else, could you say what you meant by the statement in question if it is not that? If you could, then I could have a better understanding a towhat you mean and be able to respond accordingly.
