I was just going through a mylotters post and i just came across reading comments .One of mylotter badly scolding the posting mylotter for suggesting his/her post.There were really bad words expressed .He/she was warning her that i will block you if you suggested your posts again.I felt very bad reading the behaviour.Is suggesting annoys that much?It's a right of mylotters to use the suggest option isn' it?

I don't like it when one person suggested 10 or more in one day. That's pushing it.

@amnabas No I don't scold - I ignore, and don't read their posts.

It is starting to annoy me. However, I would send a private message and not berate the person publicly. I just delete the suggestions on a daily basis.

@amnabas Sometimes on sites like this, we never know what leads to these outbursts. I just try not to get involved in the discussion.

no need fer rudeness. if'n that person 'twas so heck bent'n bein' outraged by such, the simplest solution'd be to private message 'em 'n ask 'em politely to refrain from such. if'n that didn't work then simply unfollow 'em where they can't do such. not all that a person writes 'n shares here's 'f much interest. i've a few that send me their 'suggestions' 'f what they've done all day 'n i jest pay 'em no mind....nor do i bother to go 'n read 'em if'n they don't catch my attention.

In only annoys me when someone suggests all of their OWN posts to me and never visits mine. But its not enough of an annoyance that I'd get really mad about it. Half of the time, I can't even find the "Suggested" tab. And I can ignore it if I want to.

That I assume is me you are talking about! It frustrates and irritates when you get 8 - 10 suggestions from one person when the posts are of little or no interest. I presume that the suggest feature should be used to suggest relevant content to relevant people, and not a way of spamming people into reading the posts!
Naturally, if I see such spamming methods I would rather have a word with the person so that they can review their methodology before more people become frustrated with them!

@amnabas All the words I used were polite. I am sure that no one could find an unpolite word in what I said. Yes, they are direct and to the point. I do not softfoot around, instead I say what needs to be said.
For the issue of context - below is what was said in the post. Please high light any unpolite words.
"Please refrain from 'suggesting' your posts to me - I have no interest in this type of post. I will peruse and read posts that I want to read regardless of suggestions. If you continue to suggest your posts to me, I will have no choice but to unfollow you, block you and read NONE of your posts. Understand?"

It's ok to suggest other post if you think it's a helpful post.
But suggesting a post just to promote his/her discussion, I might not like it.
