I meant the knowledge that a Twit filter exists in itself could be intimidating (announcement of it is the first thing you see in UT), not necessarily the knowledge that someone has actually placed you on their list. It just seems unnecessary and unfriendly. If a posting is rude or bothersome one could either ignore or deal with it in an accepatble way. Who are we hiding from? There are attitudes that could be improved, arrogance that could be racheted back a bit, and some life experience that is sorely needed, but for the most part folks here seem fine. I personally do not plan to filter and do not care if I am on someones filter list as long as this forum continues to be a valuable resource for VFP development.

I agree that posting these lists should be considered cause for warning.
