B-Man Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 I am old and crotchety. I don't need the computer to tell me who to ignore. I check out their posts, decide if I want to laugh at it, or post the actual truth in response to their spin, and move on. No asking, can you explain ?, where did I say that ?, what do you mean ?.................Most of them are incapable of a straight answer or admitting a mistake. It is a waste of time to engage in that manner, stick to laughing at them. 4
Koko78 Posted June 25, 2020 Posted June 25, 2020 The only ones I have on ignore are those who went out of their way to be useless or offensive for a significant amount of time. It's like 2 people across 5 or so accounts. I don't easily ignore people here. They put in the work, dedication, and effort to make it. 1

When put into effect, the "Ignored Users" function will enable you to choose which, if any, content you'd like to filter from your view. A user can choose to ignore specific content from specific users such as; "posts", "messages", "signature", "mentions", and "shout box". To activate the "Ignore Users" function, you can just follow these easy steps: 1) Click the drop down menu in the top right corner of your screen 2) Click on "Account" 3) Click on "Ignored Users" 4) Add new user to ignore using the search function 5) Select user 6) Check the boxes of the content you'd like to ignore from the user 7) Enjoy an adult beverage and relax There are many clues that can indicate it might be a good idea to start ignoring specific users. A few of them are listed here: 1) A specific user is acting in a threatening manner 2) A specific user is not contributing to the topic in a thread 3) A specific user is always talking about the same thing, in every thread 4) A specific user is unable to have a reasonable discussion 5) When you see a post from a specific user, you get the same feeling as when you smell a terrible fart in a public setting 6) You often get SHE (second hand embarrassment) for a specific user 7) After a long back and forth with a specific user, you ask yourself, "why did I just waste precious time in my life engaging with that person" Hope this helps, happy discussions and remember, "Ignored Users" is your friend. Expand You take the high road, I'll take the low road ... Hover over the users "name" Wait for the Pop Up Click Ignore User I have like people on Ignore. 4 of which have left the board 1 1

Non-trumper posters have just injected a little bit of intelligence here and there lately. So actually there's probably the same amount of stupid, and now just a little more smart.
