How do I ignore someone? - Page 8 - About the Forums

Someone created a browser plug-in or something which does this. It was posted in the software forum a couple years ago, I think. I don't remember which browser it was for, or any other details which would help in searching for it.

If you're talking about FfvB, it is defunct.

90% of that bull**** comes from posters with 2011/2012 reg date.
i know that many of these fools get banned but they keep making account after account.
so my question is if it is possible to implement a ignore function for all posters which registered after a set date, lets say jan 2011 for example ?

what do other non ******ed members think about such a function ?

New Forum Feature Request, "Add UserName to Ignore List" should be an option from the dropdown menu when clicking someone's name next to their post (either just below, or in place of "Add UserName to Contacts"

Currently, if I wanted to ignore the person who posted above me i have to:
1. Click "TomCollins"
2. On drop down, click "View Public Profile"
3. Load new page, click "User Lists"
4. On drop down, click, "Add to Ignore List"
5. Load new page, click "Yes" to confirm.

If someone is an awful poster, I should be able to ignore them from a drop down menu right next to their awful post. It just adds insult to injury that after I waste my time reading an awful post I'm forced to waste extra time to go out of my way to ignore them. This is slow and cumbersome, it should be fast and simple.

(since this feature already exists for 'add to contacts', this would be simple-ish to implement right?)

I find that just not reading the post works pretty well and requires no clicks on my part. Even easier. But admittedly I'm so old that I find just doing simple math is faster and easier in my head than using a calculator, too.

Just ignore me.

I'd like an "Ignore - no, really' option so that you could completely ignore trolls rather than having their posts cluttering up threads with "You cannot see this message ..." well, duh, I can see the message is there, I just can't see its contents.

I want them to be IGNORED.

I don't want to see their name, the fact that they posted, or the option to view their post.

Please fix this Mr. Sklansky.

Here's an ignore script I use, only with the "User is ignored" bit removed.

Code:

// ==UserScript==
// @name           2+2 full ignore
// @include        http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/*
// ==/UserScript==

var query = "//a[@class='bigusername']";
var snapshot = document.evaluate(query,
	                          document,
	                          null,
	                          XPathResult.ORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE,
	                          null);
var ignores = ['someuser', 'another user', 'still another user'];
var i;
for(i = 0; i < snapshot.snapshotLength; ++i) {
	var node = snapshot.snapshotItem(i);
	try {
		var name = '' + node.textContent;
		if(ignores.indexOf(name) > -1) {
			var userText = node.parentNode.innerHTML;
			node.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.innerHTML = " ";
		}
	}
	catch(e) {
	}
}
// ==/UserScript==

Can you explain how/where you add a username to the code?

Thanks...

I don't always ignore people but when I do I want them to be gone!. I love when I have people ignored others copy and paste their comments, bit of a glitch in the ignore I think could be fixed.

See the "var ignores" part?

Change that list to be what you want. If you had poor taste you could do this

var ignores = ['Neil S', 'Bobo Fett', 'Professionalpoker'];

I figured out my problem, you have to take users OFF your ignore list for it to work.

It completely removes them from a thread (almost).

It removes their posts, even the "This message is hidden because X is on your ignore list." phrase.

But they still show in the forum list if they start a thread and they also show up if they're quoted in a reply.

Thanks for your help.

You can use the patented dkgo method for threads they start.

Hi ZR !!

When someone is ignored, their gimmicks should also be ignored ...

Please fix this Mr. Sklansky.
