It’s your My Ignore List
I suggest people use it It’s a very good one on this software IMO which shows a post occurred but reduces it to a single line with easy view option[/quote]
I *upvote* this one.
I usually don’t use ignore lists unless the poster gets really bad. I usually look at who is posting and if it is one of the *, and it looks like it is going on a tangent, I skip the post and move on.
If the trolls and their feeders are having a love-hate fest on the thread, there are plenty of other threads – or if the original thread is something of interest, I ignore the love-hate fest and go with the content, and post against the content ignoring what the trolls and their feeders are doing.
If the troll-feeder clutter is a problem, what about having a way for individual accounts to reduce a specific post to a ‘one-line’ for just their view? .. kind of a ‘iconify post’ button. This would need to be tracked per account, but would allow people to clean out the troll clutter per individual user preference.
