Fairly new to this forum, but since using it I’ve noticed there is a number of users that are in no way helpful, try to antagonize, attempt to criticize whatever the OP is seeking advice on, are hypocrites, and generally come across as very unpleasant peoples.
Yes, all forums have these certain types, but there seems to be more on here than any other that I’m a member of (and could well be larger). Some forums have the function to ignore certain user posts in future – is this possible on here? Do I have to become a premium user? Yes, I could choose to ignore them myself, but you cant help but read and get slightly wound up by them – a complete ignore would be far easier!

Useful replies only please 🙂

can’t you just manually ignore then by not reading their posts?

What browser are you using?

You ARE NEW here aren’t you!

Its half the fun of coming on here, and no I have nothing to offer. 😉

STW does not even have a pm function, so the chances of having/getting an ignore button is on par with the arrival of the hoverboards we were promised in Back To The Future.

STW killfile plugin?

you sure the internets is safe for you?

So. Who’s on your list then?

please name and shame the guilty parties……………so that the rest of us can take the pi55 out of them…… 😀

This always fails because:
a) you see other peoples’ responses to people who annoy you , and
b) the curiosity eats you up inside so you end up removing people you claim you to dislike from your killfile,

plus

c) you look really really childish when you say (as you inevitably will) “right, you’re in my killfile now”

a) correct

b) nope

c) just don’t say.

Good file works fine no glitches for me so far I have a very short list indeed

*awaits fist pie* 😉

I see Junkyard hasn’t posted here yet…he’s on mine.

Cooeee!

Just ignore them

works on firefox too, I’m happy to report 😀

I can’t believe the thread has got this long without someone suggesting that you simply ignore them?! 😕

Why hasn’t anyone replied to the OP yet?

I wonder how some folk cope in real life. The poor lambs… 🙁

This will teach him- damn now he knows he is not on mine …..yet

Just ignore them
What was said here, by whoever it was…

So…. how many of the people on your ignore list have posted so far – and what percentage to they make of the total number of respondents?

If you’re new here – just ignore any tread that runs for more than two pages, they are just slagging matches where the combatants have forgotten both the topic and the person that posted it.

What we really need for those is a killfile that will identify anyone who has posted more than 3 times on the same thread

Just ignore most people would and just try and keep the topic on track.

I just put you on my “ignore” list. How about we all do it ?? That would be quite weird for you, in an ironic way.

Or I guess we could all just ignore you ??

Yes, as much as everyone hates one another it’s a love hate thing, don’t ignore it, embrace the arguing and get stuck in. Or sod off to ‘Nun’s today’ forum or summit. I bet they don’t argue.
