Suggestion: Ignore all posts by user

Ducimus · 07-15-06, 10:34 AM

In light of recent trolliings, baitings, and obvious agenda's, i think it would do wonders if it were possible to ignore all posts by a speicific user. That way when your being baited, you won't see the bait being dangled infront of you, and hence, not be tempted to respond to it.

It is possible. Just view the person's profile, the on the little tool bar running left to right in the middle of the page, click Add "this dude" to Your Ignore List

Use it carefully, too many ignores and you could be confused by the forum activity.

What happens if the ignored dude starts a thread?

Do you see the thread without the first post, or see nothing at all?

...

Hello? Hello?! Anyone there? Hi?! Damn...

You see the thread, but not the post.

If you add someone to your buddy list what difference does that make?
