    Site Change: New ignore features

    As we grow, there can be times when the signal-to-noise ratio becomes annoying. In an attempt to better tune the site to individual members' preferences, substantial flexibility has been added to ignore functionality, as follows:

    Forum Ignore

    Members can now specify a list of forums to ignore. For example, you may not wish to see new posts in the Disadvantage and Sports forums. To ignore a forum:


    • Click on the forum
    • Click on Forum Tools
    • Click on Ignore this forum


    To restore the forum:


    • Click Settings at the top of the page
    • Click Thread & Forum Ignore Lists under My Account
    • Unclick the forum in the Forum Ignore List
    • Click Save Changes


    Thread Ignore

    There may particular threads that you find are interfering with the site’s usefulness. To ignore threads:


    • Open the thread
    • Click Thread Tools
    • Click on Ignore this thread


    To restore the thread:


    • Click Settings at the top of the page
    • Click Thread & Forum Ignore Lists under My Account
    • Unclick the thread in the Thread Ignore List
    • Click Save Changes


    Customize Ignore

    You can customize what ignore means. By default, if a thread or forum is on an ignore list, it will not appear when you click on New Posts, the Forum Display, or the Home Page list of forums. Basically, it will be as though it didn’t exist. One exception, it will appear in What’s New (which I never use). To customize this:


    • Click Settings at the top of the page
    • Click Thread & Forum Ignore Lists under My Account
    • Change the Enable Ignore Options
    • Click Save Changes


    User Ignore

    The new functions above are in addition to the standard User Ignore function. As a reminder, to ignore all posts by a specific member:


    • Click on the member name to view the profile
    • Click Add to Ignore List at the left
    • Click Yes


    To restore the user:


    • Click Settings at the top of the page
    • Click Edit Ignore Lists under My Account
    • Unclick the user in the Ignore List
    • Click Save Changes
    • Note: You can also add multiple members on this screen.


    Please notify me quickly if you notice any problems with the site.

    I thought you were working to bring fellow card players closer together. Not by creating a wedge in between them. By the way I thought you suspended me for a weak reason on your misinterpretation of words based on a description. I realize you lean slightly to the left politically speaking and that's okay because I really don't care but I do take note, you could have handled the situation better by not taking your frustrations out on me. Do you need to go on a vacation Norman?

    1. You do not bring people together by shoving threads they don't like in their faces.
    2. I have no idea what you mean about politics. Your suspension had absolutely nothing to do with politics. Absolutely nothing.
    3. I did not take any frustrations out on you. I strongly suggest that you drop this. In particular, this thread is about a new feature. It is clearly the wrong place for whatever you are doing.
