Complaint about Ignore list

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Yeah, I've never seen the need to ignore people. Sure, there are some users who I know I'll probably never agree with and do very little buy annoy me, but its far more work to click "Ignore" than just scroll down or skim their posts.

Yup... there are only one or two individuals who post here who so badly get under my skin I find it hard to read anything by them, but there's no need to ignore them. Just scroll on!

To take up the other side of the coin ... I have found that one or two well-placed ignores really makes my time here more pleasant. And that's why the feature is in place.

When you can't stand one of the mods or admins, though ... that's a problem that I think goes beyond an ignore list unless we're talking about someone who has mod status and is simply in moderating a couple of subforums...

That is likely the case.

I hope it isn't me that The Shaman wants to ignore because I have my own hosted forum here and I would technically qualify as a moderator in that regard.

The Shaman, if it is me that you want to ignore, please feel free to PM/email me.
I try not to be offensive, but if I am somehow getting under your skin, maybe we can discuss it out-of-channel.

Exactly.

I don't come to ENWorld to be frustrated and I find that my experience of the boards is better without being subjected to the consistently unpleasant posts of a couple of other users.

Meh. There were a couple of people I experimented with ignoring, but you still see their names. It was almost more annoying seeing that and the "You are ignoring this person" notice than just breezing past their posts. T'was just an experiment anyhoo, as there's no one here I really can't abide. That's why I come here in the first place.

Y'know, I will say this about the ENWorld community. The number of helpful, insightful, and downright nice people FAR and AWAY outnumber the pr*cks, as opposed to some other boards I've been to. I almost never visit the WotC boards or those at rpg.net. People here are just more folksy. And being from the southern U.S., that's important to me.

I agree with this. As far as web communities go this is certainly one of the better ones. I've only been here a relatively short time (compared to all you old timers) and though I may not agree with what everyone thinks all the time it is still very friendly. I am certainly glad I found this place!

Okly Dokly, Neighborino!

I got a couple on my ignore list but it fluctuates alot as a lot of people have made it to the list and all but one (after given time) has made it off the list…

The one that stands out by far was when I added Lady Shatterstone (My RL wife) to my list for a week just so I could say I was ignoring her… (I found it funny, she didn’t and I found out what a RL ignore list was… )
