Can we have the ignore button back in the main discussion list, instead of having to actually go to the thread the fucking spammer has started in order to ignore them?
Alternatively, delay actually posting new users' posts for a few hours some somebody can review them and delete the account before anyone sees the spam.
I suspect that latter is more work than it's worth in the short term, but I'd volunteer to be a reviewer. :)

This would be nice
gmd,
Don't you need a mover?
I do Clubber, I'm moving to India, posthaste. Have you seen the gorgeous young Indian women?
I don't need a mover, but if we could get 3 guys who smell like armpit over to my house, that'd be great.
Along with a Plus 1 and Neg 1 button!
vm,
One of the few women that rally knocked my socks off the first time I saw her was Indian. A "dot" Indian, not a "woo woo" Indian, Aishwarya Rai. This was over 10 years ago.
Yeah this spamming is getting out of control.
What spamming ?
Its there for me, the little mic with a line through it.
I asked for this a while back when it disappeared briefly too: tuscl.net
Shit!
No disrespect, but this seems a bit ridiculous. On my phone it takes exactly two clicks to ignore somebody, one to open the thread and one to click on the microphone. I admit that there has been an uptick in the number of Indian mover ads, but those spam threads lead to brilliant replies about furniture that smells like curry! Plus you can ignore the poster with two clicks! Isn't that ace?
Seriously, I'm not going to disrespect georgemicrodong's decision to ignore who he pleases. I know he's ignoring me because I tried to ask him a question. Don't know what I said that offended him, don't care either! But does the fact that he wants the ability to ignore people with one click rather than two rise to the level of starting a thread!
TL; DR: no disrespect, but the whole request is pointless. So I rate the request non-brilliant! :(
So true 4got2wipe. Sounds like complete laziness to me. GMD too lazy to fund his own dick to jack off too? What a pussy
George, the ignore button is right there on the discussion list. What are you talking about?
It's not there on my phone. I haven't logged into the desktop version for a while.
^^^ maybe you need a new phone
And a sense of humor
What you're asking for is a moderator. We will, in effect, become stripperweb.
Interesting, it took only one click on my phone to put a poster on ignore on this thread.
I've never done it until now, so I didn't even know the feature was there, much less so easy to use.
Funny, just one clicker to ignore myself
^^^^ juicebox if I were you I'd put chakken fangers on ingnore :)
@WetWilly, yes, if you're in the thread and see a user you want to ignore, it's one click. But if you're on the master discussion list, it's two. One to click on the thread name, and one to click on the user.
Yeah, I'm lazy. But getting rid of spammers should be easy. :)
GMD - I don't think this person is a spammer. Changing user names to get around the ignore button is clearly the mark of a troll. Guess who? :)
Thanks, George, I didn't even know about the master discussion view.
I think we just need to chill out about these spammers. Use Ignore, and eventually their accounts will be deleted.
Placing new members on moderation might help, but it is still time consumptive. Total moderation would really destroy the fluidity of this forum.
Lets not over react to a few spammers.
SJG
Just click twice, GMD. Sheesh!
I can't see my comments
Seriously , how do i unblock myself if i can't see myself ???
Umm, put your glasses on, juice,
Juice, there is an " IGNORE LIST " on your profile. Go there and check it, then if your ID is there, remove it from that list. The easiest way to find your ignore list is to go to your profile from the top right of this screen--from a computer. I don't think it is available from most Smartphones, but maybe others know.
Hope this helps.
"Alternatively, delay actually posting new users' posts for a few hours some somebody can review them and delete the account before anyone sees the spam."
that sounds totally useless in my opinion. Sure it makes for quieter discussion, but it's not like a strip club review where the information has potential to be vital. Its just people talking about life in general where its meant to be fun not intentionally informational. so reviewing "discussion posts" seems like more junk coding.
