    Do ignore lists work on this forum?

    Being of an extremely (some may even say pathologically extreme) open mind, I tend to go through life creating enemies left, right and centre. I speak my mind openly, and wouldn't you know it, there's never shortage of feeble minded people who find plenty of reasons to be deeply offended by such openness.

    Because of that, I tend to often receive messages from others claiming how they cannot stand me and thank god for the ignore lists and how they're putting me on their ignore list. Great, I'm very happy for them.

    But then those same people keep coming back and getting extremely agitated about my posts. Well, what's the case here, haven't they already put me on their ignore list? Do these lists even work? Like, if I put someone on the ignore list, I'd expect never to see their posts (btw, I've never placed anyone on my ignore list for the simple reason that I'm always interested in hearing others' opinion, no matter who they may be; that's the reason why I'm not sure if those lists work, since i've never tried them myself).

    So what's the deal here -- my question to the administrators is: do these ignore lists ever work? If they don't, can we please do something to make them more efficient, and in that way spare the poor over-excitable souls from having to read my material!

    Perhaps the Logitech mods might want to monitor those who have recently been let out and what they are posting very closely.

    Further, start to charge for space on their expensive servers, per post, that add zip to anything to do with the listening experience of their customers.

    MCR,
    If you change, it shouldn't be simply to please others. But equally no-one has to like or even listen to what you have to say. That's life I guess.

    Please put me on your ignore list. Is that too much to ask?

    LOL! Like you I don't do ignore lists. But I can ignore you the old-fashioned way if you want?

    PS: Reflecting your concern for the wider community, I am not quoting your posts - so they have to guess your half of the conversation! They may even un-ignore you through curiosity.

    Lightbulb How to ignore a thread

    The inbuilt "ignore user" function of the forum is pretty incomplete. Therefore I found a script to ignore entire threads too. This script runs client-side, and it does not grant complete ignorance either, but together the two functions give a decent insulation, as in practice 99% of the annoying BS gravitates around a few cesspit threads.

    If anybody's got questions about the script, please ask in the thread I started, and not in this thread, as it too will be on my ignore list as soon as I've finished writing this post.

    No point replying to this post then.

    I think we need a meta forum section, talking about talking, this sure is bloating up the forums, & mind numbing to tread through

    Why not put yourself on your own Ignore List to see if it works?

    If it does work, perhaps your overall agitation levels may miraculously subside.
