Dan Gould Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 OK, the upgrade is complete. Is anyone actually using the Ignore function? I ask cuz when I was splitting time between here and AAJ, I used the Ignore function on a couple of my political opponents, like Chris A. and Ron .... and you know what? About 99% of the time, when the software displayed a blank message from an "ignored" member, I couldn't help myself and I'd click on the link to see what the sumbitch was saying. So for me, using the Ignore function was great in theory, worthless in practice because the fact was that, to paraphrase Jack Nicholson, I needed to know what was being said. Now that I've been happily self-banned from the Political Forum for more than a year, I have no need for the Ignore function ... not even for Clem. So what about you? Ignoring someone?

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 Someone said that if others take to quoting the 'ignored' person, the text won't be masked at all.......thus rendering the function about as useless as the advance 10-day forecast over at weather.com (imo).

Ron S Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 I used the Ignore function on a couple of my political opponents, like Chris A. and Ron For those who might otherwise be confused, how about clarifying which "Ron" the next time you use the name?

I can assure you there is no confusion.
king ubu Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 I'm ignoring my own posts - it's funny to read what the others answer without knowing what I said before
Guest Chaney Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 I'm currently ignoring (let me check...) nine members. It's not that I despise these folks, it's just that their posts tend to irritate me. I'm sure they're otherwise fine members of society.

Guest Chaney Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 Okay, that's eleven and twelve. As a symbolic gesture, I'm considering ignoring all those that have joined this board and never posted. If they think I'm going to wait around for their wise words, well... they've got another thing comin'! Ready to post? Ha! I ain't listenin'!
marcoliv Posted May 31, 2005 Report Posted May 31, 2005 i was wandering about this since some of my PMs haven't been responded Marcus
Chuck Nessa Posted June 1, 2005 Report Posted June 1, 2005 I want every member who can't see this message to email me.
Jazzmoose Posted June 1, 2005 Report Posted June 1, 2005 Strange...I have this sudden urge to email Chuck Nessa, but for the life of me I can't figure out why!
Guy Berger Posted June 4, 2005 Report Posted June 4, 2005 Has anybody tried to put the ignore function on themselves? Will the board implode?
Chuck Nessa Posted June 4, 2005 Report Posted June 4, 2005 Will the board implode? ← I think we have found the root of the board problems. Ban Guy and all will be OK!
