[NSC] How many people have you got on ignore?

[Neville's Breakfast]

Just checked and removed those which I have no idea why they are there.

Leaving 3. 2 absolute idiots and the fellow who started the Brexit thread ( as it was a way to remove that thread from showing on my NSC once it came back to the main board ).

Same. I feel a bit bad about ignoring Kingston Seagull and have absolutely nothing against him but with that thread on the main board I’m afraid he had to go.

I had apparently accidentally put Brighton Lines on ignore and only realised as I couldn't find the cricket or non league thread.

4.

2 who consider themselves side splittingly funny but their humour leaves me, personally, cold. And 2 trolls.

So a thread started by someone you have on ignore doesn’t even show?

I might have to rethink my ignore strategy if so

A couple, plus some who post that I don't reply to.

 

[Questions]

I agree

I dont

 

[Boroseagull]

None - but don't bother reading those who's main aim in life is starting/contributing to political threads. I's a football forum surely?

Shame you’d have missed him defending every shit referee we had last season

8. Two banned or not posting, 2 well known look at me herberts, the rest GB news types.

 

[Happy Exile]

Wasn't sure I had any but there's a handful, mostly banned and I don't think the others post anymore. It was never about avoiding opinions I didn't agree with for me, it was just a way of filtering out deliberately provocative bellendery from the reasonable, sometimes opposing, views in a thread.

 

[Commander]

Mod only, yes.

It doesn't seem quite right to name and shame.

I assume I can access this on NSC Elite?

 

[Beach Hut]

On here, none.
In life, many.

Ditto

 

[nicko31]

Never had anyone on ignore. Have been abused by some, all of which bar one had been banned

 

[Robdinho]

None, and agree with those who say it's useful to hear different opinions.

However, I think it's easy to say that on here because, for whatever reason, we seem to be spared the real extremists that you find if you stray into the wrong bit of Twitter. Whether that's due to the good work of the moderators in issuing bans when deserved, the fact that everyone is real person and not a bot, or if some people simply bite their tongue on here, I don't know but, even though there are people on here who hold views I strongly disagree with, I never feel the same despair for humanity as I do on much of the rest of the Internet!

2008? . . . you really do bear grudges!

Not really, I got through it, but it effectively derailed poor old Hawesy’s career.

 

[chickens]

Four. I’m happy to discuss subjects with people who disagree with me, but there’s a certain mix of thick and unpleasant that I just don’t need in my life.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

44 but interestingly none who have contributed to this post. Some banned now and most who I couldn’t be arsed with reading because I sort of knew the sort of comments they’d be making. My bad.
I really need to do some housekeeping.

 

[Motogull]

7. A combo of know-it-alls and tedious tits. Absolutely nothing to gain from their 'opinions'.

 

[Robinjakarta]

Four. Seems none are still posting. If I remember correctly, two were obnoxious, one really pissed me off about something and the most recent one was our Potter loving 'friend.'

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

Mostly Palace fans and a couple of those to the right of Suella Braverman.
