There's an ignore feature? I thought I had to do the work.

They will spend inordinate amounts of time complaining and advising others how and where they should anchor.

The Old Salt: Has been anchored hundreds if not thousands of nights. Doesn't care what other people do, how they do it or how much room they leave. When issues arise, they deal with it, then go back to bed.
Well said. Perhaps we have more sophomores than old salts on this forum?

Yes ignoring is a sufficient solution.

I actually enjoy trying to extract some value from them.
