It might be slightly against the point of a forum (I'm hoping this isn't against the rules of this one!) but i've written a chrome extension that very basically allows you ignore any users that you wish to.

It removes their posts and any topics that they author.

(Onzabog and CaptJon, I hope that it's ok that I've used your usernames in the screenshot, it was the first I could find with my username. If you're not happy let me know and I'll change it out)

Why on earth would I want to ignore anyone - that would make it impossible to argue with them?

Selected usernames need to be exactly the same as they are on here, they're case sensitive. Js also needs to be turned on I guess!

There is one already available as well http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/stw-killfile-plugin
I have started using it. It leaves the post in but changes the text to "joe bloggs said something stupid" which pleases me . Hopefully by ignoring the folk that get my goat I will be drawn into less stupid rows.

How many folk have me in theirs I wonder 🙁

Ahh I hadn't seen that. Just taken a look and it appears to work in a fairly similar way but guess it would look nicer. In the next version of mine I plan on adding functionality so that you can click a link on the hidden post and it'll show it. I'll probably just add more and more stuff when I'm bored!

Once you install it, how do you actually add users?

Click the spanner in the top right of chrome, hover over tools and select extensions. Then click on the options link next to the extension and it's pretty straight forward from there.

Alternatively, click the red X (if it's showing) in the top right area and select options.

I can only think of 2 users I'd bother with this for: both roadies. Coincidence?
