Is The Forum Getting More Antagonistic?

[Micah Sweet]

There are over 200 users who are ignored by more than 10 people.

So, I suspect there's dozens of posters would be surprised how many are ignoring them.

This is why I wish it were possible to know who was ignoring you. Threads tend to get choppy otherwise.

Honestly, I don't care who is ignoring me. The choppiness of the occasional thread due to the mutual ignore setting is a bit annoying though. Usually, I don't notice it. But there have been threads here and there where someone ignoring me has been a major participant - those threads can get unreadable.

I'm kind of curious now. I know this board hangs on my every word, so it's exceedingly unlikely anyone has me on ignore, but how can I check to see how many people have denied themselves the pleasure of my words?

We have a tool which tells us how many people have somebody on ignore. There are people with over a hundred people ignoring them.

They're not around any more.

I can see why that would be, well, a bad sign.

Regularly wish we could see greyed out what they are saying to make the threads make sense

I'm not ignoring you if that is any reassurance

I'm busy ignoring myself.

Although I've been told that if I do that too often, I might go blind.

Wait .. you don't think that's true.

Do you?

DO YOU??!!!!!

Since I only have one person on my own ignore list now (I had two, but one of them got the boot), when I see a particularly incoherent thread I'll go check it in another browser to see who's posts I'm missing. Its the only reason I know of a couple people who have me on ignore.

(And I figure if I never notice anything odd, I don't need to know.)

The only people I ignore are the ones that blast the site with 20 threads in Chinese about something with a college. Not sure if 10 others are doing the same thing.

I don't believe things we remove as spam can show up in the rankings.
