I Find the Ignore Button a Wonderful Feature of this Whole Forum

[officerripley]

So thanks to @Matrix for allowing this feature; it's much appreciated.

 

[Remy]

I've only got one on ignore. I agree, it's a good feature on any forum.

Yep... quick and easy! Of course, any threads they may have started gets left out, so missing replies as well. But such is life!

 

[Tish]

I have only used it once, it's fantastic!

 

[jet]

never used it

 

[George1959]

I've avoided using the button for a long time, since I'm for really free speech and against any kind of censorship. But in the end I used it two times. I remember only the first member and forgot the second one.

 

[January]

I've never used it on any forum either.

I think it could make threads higgeldy piggeldy to read if parts were missing to you.

I do not come here to ignore people. I come to learn, to have fun, and to help if I can. Unfortunately for me and unpleasantly for some others, I have a temper, my bad.

 

[timoc]

What if you sort of slipped and put everyone on ignore?

The result would likely be......

Good morning, Me?

How is Me doing today?

Where is, Me, going today?

Don't be so nosy, Me, or I'll put you on ignore.

I've never used the ignore button, as I feel it's important to learn tolerance. There are all sorts of people in this world that we share.

That's not to say that sometimes people don't bug me

I don't use the ignore button...I just ignore if I choose to.

 

[Aunt Bea]

I rarely use the ignore button because I want to know who and what I’m ignoring.

 

[Fyrefox]

I’ve never used the ignore button, and just out of curiosity found it! Were politics allowed on the forum, I’d probably need it! We all (mostly) have our rough edges and almost everyone is someone else’s idea of a freak or monster. There’s a lot to be said, however, for the harmonious acceptance and reconciliation of opposing viewpoints. As the old saying goes, “If you don’t happen to like me, pass me by…”.

 

[Lara]

And why use an ignore button...to let the other person know you don't like them?
What good is that? It's not likely they're going to change any at our age

I have 23 people on ignore. I find this easier in order to get along. I only became offended once on here, and was told by the moderator if I don't like what's being said don't read it.

I took that advice because I don't need the aggravation of people giving me a hard time and then them reporting me when I give back the same. Yeah I know how it works.

Save yer "sounds like it's you that has a problem" b.s. Yeah I already know that. Just don't try to set me off, and we'll all get along fine.

 

[George1959]

Wow. 23 people is quite a lot.

 

[Paladin1950]

I've never used it. Totally forgot about it.

 

[Della]

Why I can't use the ignore button.

 

[DebraMae]

I have very few on ignore. It is because they can't leave politics alone or because they push one of my particular buttons, stirring up trouble. So button pushers or ones who like to stir up trouble do not fit in with my reason for being here.

 

[dilettante]

Drizzle drizzle.

I'm curious now as to how many of you good folk have pushed the ignore button on me.... if I give you one of my toffees will you 'unignore' me?

 

[Pappy]

In 14 years I’ve never used it. I just move on to a thread I like.

You’re definitely on my short list!

Don't think i've used it on here 'mental ignore' works well. I have blocked people on FB, because particularly during election years there are those that get quite persistently unpleasant. Tho in recent years i've considered blocking the guys who pop up on my posts with smarmy flattery requesting i friend them, despite a warning pinned to top of my page that i will not respond to such posts.

The problem is they are clearly looking for a relationship (even if a Catfish/Mark one) and i'm NOT! Friendship yes, but those develop naturally if someone responds to posts with a relevant comment or humorous observation. Some of my male FB friends i knew from now defunct Eons. Some i met on threads created by other cyber friends because, just imagine, we actually had an interesting and/or fun exchange of ideas. You know an actual conversation?

Can i get toffee for not having put you on ignore?
