Re: The "Ignore List"
Memo to myself:
Remember to log-on to HT before reading the threads, because if I browse the threads as a "guest" (that is, not logged on), all postings will show up. But if I log on before browsing, then my ignore list functions.
Not logging on means not making use of a useful HT feature.

All the ignore list does is to temporary prevent you from seeing what that user has posted to the public subforums. I don't know the effect on the social groups or visitor messages but i do know if a user on your ignored list sends you a private message you will not recieve that message it nor is the user is notified about being on your ignore list.

I think over time I have gotten better at ignoring topics (or at least not posting my 2 cents) or even just not responding to a particular post of another's, if I don't feel it'll make a difference or just get my blood pressure up.
Of course in my own mind I can (just poke tongue, li'dat)
I just realized something funny, in an irritating kinda way.

HaHa! Oh well. I can still just do what I was trying (posted) above.

i've only ever put one person on ignore list - those of you who were here during the "great wars", as Kaonohi put it, will know who & why. But, I figure since I can dish it out, it's only fair to be able to take it too. So, no matter how bad a person can be - I don't have an ignore list.
Helen - I'm curious. If I'm on someone's ignore list, am I still able to see their posts?

Re: The "Ignore List"
The following two quotes are from the thread titled Magnetic Anomaly - H-3:

This message is hidden because user B is on your ignore list.
Two more things I noticed when a user is on your ignore list:- You view that hidden post, you can quote that message but the multi-quote button is not available on that view.
- In the index listing if you move your mouse over a thread that is started by an ignored user the text of that post does not show up.

Re: The "Ignore List"
A few years ago we had some trolls. I put them on ignore. Other than trolls I've put only one member on ignore; a member who has since been banned. And, no, not Kimo55 or Manoa!!! The Ignore option does not prevent others from quoting the ignored person so that person's posts are still viewable to some degree.
I miss Maddy, too.

Re: The "Ignore List"
Back in my early days here, during the time of "the great wars," I considered putting some people on ignore - I think I even did for a day or so - then I realized that if I have to put someone on ignore to ignore them, it says more about me than it does about them.
K?

Re: The "Ignore List"
I have not examined the profile stuff since uploading my photo, nor do I wish to do so now, unless others' Ignore List information is available there. If I were on someone's Ignore List, I would appreciate a shout-out, preferably a system generated notification, so I could reciprocate and thereby avoid unwanted interaction.
I must humbly disagree with the admin position you quoted Helen. Hidden/silent Ignore Lists are counterproductive to the value of the forum, IMHO.

I also realize that if someone had set their display option to either Your Contacts or Your Friends, you won't be able to see that person's display option even through you are not on that person Ignore List.

Originally posted by salmoned View PostIt certainly would be instructive to know who's list one is on, eh? In fact, Ignore Lists should be a part of one's profile viewable by all.
It may save a considerable number of irrelevant or ineffective posts. By matching up Ignore Lists (you ignore me, I ignore you) we could all form closed clicks with little interaction between offending/offended 'tribe' members. Hmm...
Originally posted by admin View PostIf you're ignoring someone, just ignore them. Drawing attention to the fact that you're ignoring them is not ignoring them. And discussing having someone on your ignore list is really just inviting snarky ways to take a jab at someone, taking the low road to the high road, as it were.

For the record, no one is on my Ignore List. Everyone's input [on threads I view] is of importance to me because I'm here to learn about you and hope you'll learn something about me whenever I reply.Last edited by salmoned; March 31, 2010, 09:53 PM.
