Title: Is someone getting on your nerves and pressing all your buttons?
Post by: leaf on February 03, 2009, 05:05
well now theres hope :)

beside each user there is now an 'ignore user' link.  This will make their posts be hidden.  In your profile settings you can see more options concerning this. The link may some day (perhaps soon) be removed, but the option to ignore will still be available in your user settings

Profilfe > Ignore user options

If you are getting private messages from someone you don't want to hear from anymore, you can go here

I noticed that Leaf did not give himself an ignore button. Hmmmmmm  ;D

Perhaps he will hit the ignore button  on my post here. We'll see. :o

In real life we need an undo button.

I don't know why but I'm against it. That's pretty weird in a forum. No ?? I already saw a forum where people was able to evaluate each others, but they cancelled that, because of the intolerance it provided. At least the "muted" people should know they are IMO. It could give weird thread without that?

well they will only be muted to the person who they are constantly butting heads against.  Everyone else would still see their posts.  I don't imagine it will be used very often but when someone continually tries to 'attack' or single out another user, it might be alright for them to be easily able to ignore the other persons posts.

I prefer this idea . It's like instead of the bouncer throwing the guy out  you put him in a sound proof booth with a mirror so he can scream at his reflection without bothering the other patrons  Grin
He can still call the waitress for more pints of Guinness , of course.

a win win solution. Bravo  Cool

Good choice - not that I choose to ignore many - but it's standard on most forums (ipb, phpbb) and I AM glad we have it...

I prefer not to ignore automatically.  Once in a while one of them may write something worth reading.  Rarely, but it may happen.  :)

In the bad old days when life was tougher and usenet ruled cyberspace, one dumped annoying characters in the KILLFILE.

On usenet I am on everyone's kill file. I guess I am soon going to talk to myself.

When someone wants to ignore one's posting, is it so difficult to pass through ? Are there so many ennemies here ? What's next ? self-ban IP system to ignore this forum ?  ;D

because after 5 cups of coffee, it's almost auto-pilot to stick a finger out the car window and scream f words when someone overtakes you in a traffic jam. same thing applies here  ;)
