Who is on your ignore list?

[Flasch186]

This could be a controversial or touchy subject but as usual you dont have to post in here if you dont want to AND no one will know if youre telling the truth or not. But I was just wondering, Im sure others wonder too. I know sometimes no one responds to my comments, which could be for plenty of different reasons from disdain to ignoring me but I was just wondering. Perhaps no one will put theirs up here, I dunno. Curious I guess.

I dont have anyone on mine but man have I been tempted and wondered if my FOFC days would be more enjoyable if I did. Ive seen others comment that they have people on theirs for that exact reason, to enjoy their visits here and wonder if it works.

[ice4277]

nobody

[TroyF]

One person. I think I've had three total in the history of this site. Two of those were banned from the site. (long before I became a mod)

[vex]

No one, atm.

[Arctus]

nobody

[wade moore]

No one.

[Draft Dodger]

no one

It may not be best for a mod to have anybody on their ignore list.

[Ksyrup]

I have never used the ignore list on any message board I have ever been on. I don't understand the purpose of it. Posts are like commercials - if you don't want to watch, turn the channel.

[JeeberD]

No one, ever.

[Cuckoo]

Nobody - although gottimd, Jeeber and duckman keep coming really darn close... :p

[JonInMiddleGA]

43 names, a few of which I don't believe are here anymore, but I haven't culled the list for that in a while. Basically, there's two sets of people on there -- those who are simply unredeemable idiots that I have no interest in ever seeing anything from (one-note trolls & a few regulars fall into this category) and those who I find offensive/unpleasant/ unwanted more often than not, so making their posts be "on-demand only" viewing makes my overall FOFC experience more enjoyable (pretty much limited to regulars /semi-regulars in this category)

And, as I think we've discussed before, you aren't on it ;)

[John Galt]

Blackie is the only one on my ignore list after my fight with him. He rarely seems to post here anymore so I guess it doesn't matter. Generally, I agree with Ksyrup though.

[Mustang]

No one.

I don't venture into political threads otherwise I'm sure I would have some on (as well as be on some)

[Flasch186]

"on-demand only" viewing

how do you do that? what shows up? a click and it is exposed?

[John Galt]

how do you do that? what shows up? a click and it is exposed?

In place of the actual post, there is a message that says someone on your ignore list has posted. You just click a link to view the message.

I always figure that I'll go one of two ways. I'll either have nobody on my ignore list or once I start adding, it'll contain a whole bunch of people who annoy me. So far I've remained in the first camp. Then again, I skip a lot of the politics threads because I prefer to remain ignorant about the rantings and opinions of several people that post in those.

Edit: I just had to add the quote from Mr. Costanza... "I've got a lot of problems with you people." :D

[MJ4H]

I have had I think 3 people on it at one time or another. No one is currently on it.

[Toddzilla]

Why is this thread empty?

[flere-imsaho]

No one, not even Franklinnoble.... ;)

Nobody - although gottimd, Jeeber and duckman keep coming really darn close... :p

If you ignored Jeeber, wouldn't about half of the board's posts disappear for you? :)

I know sometimes no one responds to my comments, which could be for plenty of different reasons from disdain to ignoring me but I was just wondering.

Sometimes we don't respond to you because we can't understand what you're saying. :p

I dont have anyone on mine but man have I been tempted and wondered if my FOFC days would be more enjoyable if I did.

In my experience, no. You end up seeing what they wrote when someone quotes them anyway, so it's kind of pointless.

[Passacaglia]

I have spent several hours putting every member of FOFC on my ignore list. It was a lot of work, and requires a ton of upkeep as new members join, but I love having an FOFC-free FOFC experience. Why would I want to read what the rest of you have to say, when I could just revel in what I have to say more and more?

[Franklinnoble]

I used to not have anyone on ignore. But in the last month or two, I've added four people, just because they seem to have an insatiable urge to push political opinions I don't want to hear, or, in one case, they simply seem to have nothing better to do than take shots at me every time I post. I overlooked it for a while, but I finally decided it was better to block what they said completely (and manually view anything that was on-topic that I might want to read from them) then to spend all my time here getting pissed off at them.

This is outstanding. I'm so glad I un-ignored you to read it. ;)

[Farrah Whitworth-Rahn]

Jeeber and Cam :p

[Cuckoo]

Yeah, and I'd miss any possible information on great deals at Olive Garden too. I'm so torn.

[TroyF]

It may not be best for a mod to have anybody on their ignore list.


Actually, it really isn't that big of a deal. The person on my ignore list is there for personal reasons, not because he's a person who has continuously caused problems. I can still see the persons posts if quoted (so any major issue could be seen pretty quickly by the tone of the thread as a whole anyway)

For Ksyrup it's like commercials, you turn them off and they go away. For me, I kind of like the VCR or TIVO with the commercial skp feature and that's what ignore does.

To top it all off, it's not like the ignore feature is a locked feature I cannot change. If someone were to ever send me an e-mail regarding problems, it would take me all of ten seconds to change the setting.

[VPI97]

Five people. I'd rather not waste time reading anything they write and I'm too lazy to look at the username before I read a post.

[Passacaglia]

This is outstanding. I'm so glad I un-ignored you to read it. ;)

Well, you better put me back -- you won't want to put up with all the taunting you'll get from me next week! I'll probably un-ignore you just to hear you cry about your miserable loss.

[BrianD]

I've only got two on my list at the moment. Most of the people who have made my list have been trolls (mostly political trolls) who came to the board swinging and never tried to become part of the community first. I can handle people with strong opinions, but I would much prefer they try to become part of the group and not just take short from the outside.

The only non-troll to make my list just struck me as an idiot that never had anything worthwhile to say. I check a few of his posts from time to time, but still have never seen anything worth reading. If only I could make threads started by this person keep from showing up, I'd be very happy.

[John Galt]

I'm curious as to who are the most ignored members of the community. I would think I would rank somewhere on that list. I wonder how many people ignore HA. I think FranklinNoble would appear on some lists, but I'm not sure how many. For some reason, I think JoninMiddleGA would be on very few lists despite the fact that he might say the most outrageous things. Of course, since people in this thread aren't inclined to be very forthcoming, I doubt we will ever get the answer. But my curiousity remains.

[Cuckoo]

Enjoy your time at #1, sir. It will be a short stay. :p

[cthomer5000]

Two people are constantly on the verge of being added, but I've never gone ahead and actually added them.

[JonInMiddleGA]

how do you do that? what shows up? a click and it is exposed?

Here's kinda what it looks like (I tried to cut & paste but it didn't come out right)

Today, Post Time View Post (link)
Remove user from ignore list(link)
User Name
This message is hidden because User Name is on your ignore list.

Do the mods and/or SkyDog have access to this information? I'd be curious to see some of the stats.

[albionmoonlight]

I have one person on my list. I forget why he's there now. But I guess I had a reason at the time.

[JonInMiddleGA]

Do the mods and/or SkyDog have access to this information? I'd be curious to see some of the stats.

IIRC, the mods do not/cannot see this info.

[Radii]

I had two people on my ignore list for awhile, but I recently removed one, b/c he only went on there for one thread that was really bothering me but otherwise I don't have a problem with his posts. the other one went on ages ago for being a moron and while I'm not angry about the comments he made that caused him to go on ignore, i have zero intention of ever taking him off the list :)

[ice4277]

I'm disappointed that nobody is saying who is on their ignore list. If you really could care less what that person thinks/types, or dislike them that much, why not just name them?

[Daimyo]

I had as many as ten on the list around election time when the political stuff got out of hand for a while, but now I have none. If there was a "total ignore" option so that posts and threads by the user totally disapeared instead of just being replaced by the "click her to view the post" I might use it a bit more.

[Antmeister]

Zero.

[digamma]

Currently zero. I've had three people on there before, all at different times.

[stevew]

Yep. Ghost ban on a personal level would be a god send, sometimes.

[albionmoonlight]

I don't see a need to call a person out. The ignore feature isn't designed to "punish" the person, IMO. It is a way of making FOFC more pleasant for me. I don't want to start a flamewar that no one really wants to read by listing someone as ignored. And I also don't want to insult someone in that way--even if it is someone who I dislike. YMMV.

Besides, what if the person responded by trying to contact me to find out why he is being ignored? That would be the opposite of what I want.

So, no names seems like a good idea.

[Anthony]

i got no one but if i did i would list it. i'm not a pussy. i've had Pumpy on and QS on at one point or another. forgot why i took them off. glad i unignored QS or else i would have missed the limmerick-off.

[rkmsuf]

who can ignore pumpy? nobody has those kinds of powers.

[Anthony]

i don't like his gimmick. he should never come to NYC, he'll get mugged and eaten alive. and if i were there i'd take a pic of it.

[MJ4H]

OK. Chubby, GoldenEagle, some dude whose name starts with B but I forgot (he doesn't post anymore so I removed him). The other two I have removed. I'm virtually certain Chubby will get ignored again, but I doubt GE will until it is NCAA Basketball Tournament time again :)

[Wolfpack]

I don't have anyone on the list and don't intend to, though there have been times when the temptation was just awful to put someone on ignore.

[Icy]

I have never used the ignore list on any message board I have ever been on. I don't understand the purpose of it. Posts are like commercials - if you don't want to watch, turn the channel.

Exactly my thoughts, nobody can piss me enought in an internet board just using words that i can skip. Also i'm never into "virtual" fights, in fact, in the years i have been a FOFC member i had only one fight related to hunters, i must admit it was a stupid fight and i can't even remember who were my rivals.

[JeeberD]

Jeeber and Cam :p

I told you I would quit sending the sexy pics of myself, you didn't have to Ignore me... :(

[TargetPractice6]

Two people because of their annoying posting style.

[Farrah Whitworth-Rahn]

I told you I would quit sending the sexy pics of myself, you didn't have to Ignore me... :(

I put you on ignore because you stopped. :eek:

[Izulde]

I've thrown people on ignore on IRC and blocked people on MSN, but never on a message forum

[duckman]

I've came close to putting Flasch186 on there for obvious reasons.

[John Galt]

I just added CageMcQuade (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/member.php?u=121) to my ignore list because, if that dude ever posts, I don't want to hear it!

[SunDevil]

Yes, isn't that when Al Gore created it? :)

[Pumpy Tudors]

Wow, it's like Sun Devil tag-team humor all up in here.

[Ghost of Cage McQuade]

I just added CageMcQuade (http://www.operationsports.com/fofc/member.php?u=121) to my ignore list because, if that dude ever posts, I don't want to hear it!

OOOOOoooooOOOOooooOOOOOOOOOOO.....

Oh, so thats how it is... Well what if I posted from beyond the grave, asshole?

If you have any dead relatives, now's the time to ouija them and tell them to stay the fuck away from me. Being ignored on a message board REALLY gets under my ecto-skin.

Good day, sir.

OOOOOoooOOOOOOoooooOoooooo...

[John Galt]

When there's something strange in your neighborhood . . .

[vex]

ip chk pls k thx

[terpkristin]

Nobody on mine.
Wonder if I'm on anybody's. :P

/tk

[Ghost of Cage McQuade]

OOOOOOooooOOOooooooooOOOOOOOOoooooo......

Hey there.. I just wanted to apologize for my outburst earlier.. I'm just kind of an angry guy sometimes, because this world is so hard to come back to, and I rarely have the time and desire to give myself the skull-ache that it takes to "cross over".

I mean, this afterlife thing is pretty cool, you all should check it out when youre done living sometime. Theres lots of games that all live up to expectations, and the food, women, and drink are.. well, heavenly.

I mean, we don't have to worry about ANYTHING.

So, again, John Galt, I apologize. I'll try to keep further communications between us in the realm of witty banter at the very least .

Good day, sir.

OOOoooOOOOOOooooOOOOOOOooooooo......

[John Galt]

I've always wondered what it would be like to be haunted by a ghost. This isn't really how I imagined it. I thought there would be more furniture flying through the air and slime on stuff. It's kind of a let down.

[CamEdwards]

no one.

[NoMyths]

Nobody.

[TheOhioStateUniversity]

I dont have anyone on ignore but If I did it would definately be Hell Atlantic...grade A a...hole from what I gather.

[st.cronin]

I have found it easy to ignore a few posters without using a special button.

[Franklinnoble]

Ok... you want names, here's my ignore list:

flere-imsaho
kcchief19
MrBigglesworth
rexallllsc

Maybe if everyone posts names, we can start a poll, and see who the all time most-ignored posters on FOFC are.

[Raiders Army]

nobody

[AlexB]

Nobody for me: one person was on it for one day once, and then I thought it was dumb to ignore somebody less fortunate than myself, so 'unignored' them again ;)

[Eaglesfan27]

Well, it doesn't really matter to me one way or the other, but, since the title of this thread is "WHO is on your ignore list?" it just seemed like, if someone was going to post that they had people on the list, they should mention them.

[Karlifornia]

Just franklinnoble, because I refuse to acknowledge the existence of republicans in california. ;)

[Joe]

You forgot 65% of america.. :D

If they all get listed on the who's online list on FOFC, I'll add them too.

Hey wait! He responded, he doesn't have me on ignore after all!

(Thinks about making a faulty intelligence joke, but that might lead to an invasion :D)

I think the cheatin' Dell guy had been the most ignored but I forgotten his name now.

I got 2, I'm afraid. Solely for the reason that I tend to read a lot of threads, even political ones, and it makes the reading go smoother. No surprise whom that is.
