Is there a member in here, whose posts always make you upset and wanting to make a post back to them in an argumentative tone? Somebody whose posts you would just rather not stumble across?

Do you know there is an ignore option? Just go into your "User CP" and on the left side under the "Miscellaneous" section, you will find the ignore option. Why not give it a try today?

Slightly easier, you can view their profile and then click "Add to Ignore List" on the right hand side.

Thanks for the tip, Jacqui. I'm going to try it and see if this doesn't become a kinder, gentler forum. I'm sorry you're having to work (on the forum) this lovely holiday:)

Nothing personal edna but I chose you to ignore, don't worry you will be off it in a minute, it simply blocks the user posts so you can't see them. I would imagine it is handy for people you don't want to associate with on this forum.

and now your posts are back :)

Give David and Josh credit, as they posted on the subject. I just made sure all members could see this reminder.

I hope your enjoying the holiday. Are fireworks allowed where you are? (and yes, shame on me for taking my own thread off topic. :p )

So, if I put Edna on my ignore list, does that mean that ANYTHING she posts will not show up on my screen? Say that David has a thread and Edna replies. The someone else quotes Edna's reply in their post. How will that work?

By the way, Edna, I really like you and enjoy reading your posts. :D

Her post will be hidden unless you click on it to show it. Quotes work the same as before.

Thanks, David! That was actually painless on my part;)

I posted and it disappeared...

Can I put myself on someone else's "Ignore" list? I would like to be ignored by a few. Can the mods?

I don't have the need to ignore anyone, but that is great to know. Thanks.

Disappeared?

It is solely up to the ignorer to choose who to ignore.

Regarding vanishing posts, when I had someone on ignore (simply as a test) I did have 2 posts not post on different threads, I don't know if there is a connection, just thought I would say something.
