[Misc] All Hail The Ignore User Option

[StonehamPark]

Although I don't remember it, the ignore user option must have been a feature on vBulletin as, taking a quick look at the most ignored chart, there are a fair few users who are widely ignored but haven't been on the site for years.

Release the Epstein NSC List.

I don't/didn't use the 'ignore member' option much - just around the time of Brexit some remainers (not the decent ones) got really vitriolic and abusive and justifiably got shunted into touch; discussion and disagreement are fine - it was just those that went over the line. Since then, I've often used the function to view their posts on other topics, and in many cases (but not quite all - there's still a few I regard as foul-mouthed shouty and abusive.............and, frankly, a bit thick!) I've unblocked them.
On the other hand, the ignore thread function is a godsend. I have, for instance, no interest in the NFL or formula1 - into the bin they go! Similarly, discussion about local Brighton (non Albion) matters - I've no interest; I don't live there, and all my relatives that did live there and I kept in touch with are now dead. Just means I don't have my screen filled up with threads I've got no interest in (and yes, most of Crodo's threads get the boot, but I haven't got Crodo on ignore!)

Can you see the most ignored threads?

No - there is no such list.

I'm sure I could delve into the database and compile one, but I'm lacking the motivation to do that right now.

Release the Epstein NSC List.

It wouldn't be fair to show a list of those who are ignored the most.

@WATFORD zero has broad shoulders .

Yep, it was certainly available on vBulletin. I think I only ever put two users on ignore; one was simply insufferable and the other was a wind-up merchant Palace fan.

Actually, I've just checked my "Ignoring" list. I had igored six users in total; five of them are now showing as banned and one hasn't posted for over five years!

You have the anti-Midas touch.

What did @Weststander say ?

 

[Dave the OAP]

Can you block users in one big hit or do you have to do it individually?

 

[Dave the OAP]

To be honest, I have taken to look at how to block every thread that isn’t about football……imagine that. A football message board just about football. Who would have thunked it!


oooh just noticed the “ just albion related” bit.

brilliant

Quick tekkie question. Can you set your opening page to be the “ Albion only threads” in settings, when you open nsc or do you always have to go to the main board screen

For snowflakes, innit

…and grumpy / intolerant old men.

It’s a good question, I fear you can’t set the Big board to default to Albion Only threads so each time you open up you have to select the big box that says ‘Albion Only’

Just create a bookmark or a desktop shortcut to point to the Albion only threads page.

You could even set a tab to open to that page by default when you open your browser.

Direct link to the Albion only page (just copy and paste without the quotation marks).

I may cry for an hour or so but I’d soldier on

I use both.
Some people are annoying and a bit unpleasant, so why spoil my NSC experience?
Thread ignore function - simply brilliant

 

[Mustafa II]

I would be interested to see what the most ignored threads are.

Can you publish that please @Bozza?
