A question for founder

You can just click the drop box read the comments then click back on that users name and hit ignore again

25,

I do not see any drop down box "read the comments" anywhere that does the above. Perhaps I am missing something. What you describe would certainly work for me.

Clubber
Scroll up to the top of the page, you'll see ignore, hit the button, list the list will drop down, hit restore nest to the name of whom you want to see, then hit the back button, your're back in the thread and your ignored is now visible, read it hit the name you'll see, Trust-Ignore-Message, select ignore again, hit button, hes back on ignore, back button to thread it takes longer to explain than to actually do.

In the 30 seconds it takes to do that I could expect Trapbaby to troll every single post of mine

^ ; ) she's not the only one

25,

That's not what I was suggesting. I asked "...we are "inside" a particular discussion we could click to see the comments of those we have on ignore?" Your way I would have to know who has been ignored in that particular discussion and all those I have on ignore that are in that discussion. Thanks for the effort.

That would defeat the purpose of ignore, and what would be the point? I took it as you were curious about what a specific poster, what you are asking for is to have your cake and eat it too.

I know what you mean Clubber. I don’t have anyone on ignore because well 1.its hard to annoy me on here (maybe like how Dougster went all crazy level annoying) but 2. The posters talk to each other and reference other posts so then your lost in the sauce when you don’t know who the fuck said what or what anybody is talking about.

25,

I think you still miss the point. It's like this, I open a discussion and there are maybe 10 comments that I see. There could be 20 or 3 comments I don't see from many many people I have on ignore. If I was interested in a specific person, I know how to do and and I have done it in the past.

And it wouldn't defeat the purpose of ignore since it would only affect that single discussion and I could put them back on ignore as I leave that discussion.

"Would it be possible that when we are "inside" a particular discussion we could click to see the comments of those we have on ignore? "



What's the point of ignoring them if you want to see what they said?

I think the idea makes sense. When I’m feeling “lost in the sauce” it would be good to be able to quickly figure out what’s going on, but then easily clean things back up.

There would be people who obessively I hide their ignored, but that would be their own problem

@TheeOSU - Hopefully a decent number of us will start to use the ignore list. If enough of us do it makes it really hard for trolls to do any trolling as not only do people not see their posts they can't post on a fair number of threads that they don't create. The problem is that not enough people use the ignore list so sometimes conversations don't make sense because you can only see part of it. A temporary "see through ignore" would work well to solve those problems. I personally have around 25 people on ignore.

Yeah... If you want to read the ignore comments, don't use ignore.

founder,

If I wanted to read the "ignore comments' is the point. I have them on ignore for a reason, but there are times I would like to read something. 25 had the right idea, but there is no way to know who to un-ignore for that discussion.

Bottom line likely to much work to do for a somewhat rare occurrence.
