That anti_elgorgo started friending scads of people who were in lj btvs related communities. I think that's when I left the Buffista lj community, and then went to the admin console and banned him/her/it. The journal is seriously freaky creepy.
The FAQ answer on banning someone from the admin console is here: [link]
Sadly, I think it only works if you haven't already been friended.
What you are doing when you ban is preventing the user from commenting in your journal. They can read just as they could before, and unless I'm sorely mistaken, you're still on their friends list.
Yes, but I think if they haven't friended you already, they can't (although it's been a long time since I did it, so I might be wrong).
anti_elgorgo had friended me, and I used the admin console to ban him/her, and now s/he's no longer listed in my "friend of" list.
Re: buying a house -- Annoying Co Worker is also a realtor and the other day when I was talking about getting a place to rent (which should happen soon) he started in on how I needed to buy a house and ran down all the ways I could get help as a first time home buyer.
A lot of it was state specific, but you should look into programs for first time home buyers.
It took a while for annoying co worker to accept that ,really, I don't want to own a house.
Trudy! I slutted 999's in your honor the other day. Smoooch! It's been so long since I have seen you.
I'm glad I could offer a little comfort today, Cass, albeit unwittingly. Punctuation and gentle thoughts your way, wittingly.
Snooooooooooooow piiiiiiiiiiics!
And *I* heart Jess. The pics are gawjuss, and so are the two cuties therein. I have also nabbed a couple shots of the tree at night, to possibly icon down the road. I'll not if you'd rather I didn't, or credit you in the comments, if you prefer.
anti_elgorgo friended me in a mass-friending last year, too. I think I just ignored him till he went away (I'm assuming "him"). He never commented. But this time, with Astarte's help, I banned him from commenting, at least. I always friends-lock anything I find sensitive. I'm by LJ the way I was about my paper journal--you read it and find anything objectionable about yourself, you've only yourself to blame for reading something that was none of your business. Pffft.
Trudy, did you by any chance just watch King of the Hill?
Hil, how did you remove him from your list? I almost never go in there, yet that name has befriended me too.
