Ignore feature needs enhancements.

[TheGr33k]

In all honesty, I don't have time to go through any unnecessary behavior from anyone if it's not helping Bitcoin's price increase, so I usually put certain people on ignore.


This leads me to the ignore feature being enhanced. I want it recreated in a way where once I block the person, they cannot see my threads for them to click on, and I cannot see theirs. It's so difficult to ignore someone when I can still see when they post in my threads, and when I notice people quoting them inside the thread so I can see the quote. It's just annoying. That's all. It's not a huge deal, but it would be nice if that gets settled. I'll even do the coding for it. I can see the site being less chaotic and frustrating, and there would probably be less reports for the moderators to handle.

If you want to censor people this way you should either self-mod the thread or go create your own forum. Just because you have blocked someone's posts doesn't mean they want to block yours and you don't have the right to choose what they can and cannot see.

Well I have the right to choose what I can and cannot see.


I don't want to see certain people in my threads. If certain people have a problem with me, it wouldn't make sense for them to click on my threads and upset themselves even more. That's completely unnecessary. I don't have time to kill just having unnecessary arguments with certain members.

Yes, and that's what ignore and self-mod is for.

I don't want to see certain people in my threads.

Then self-mod them and deal with it because that's the only way you'll get them to stop.

In your opinion. Just because someone might have a problem with you doesn't mean they can't respond to one of your threads nor will will they likely get upset by doing so but that's up to them to decide.

I don't have time to kill just having unnecessary arguments with certain members.

Then don't reply or respond. Nobody is forcing you to.

The self moderating tag is quite tedious. It would just be easy to block someone from my threads and just be done with it. As I said, I would happily do the coding for the option.


We have tension, but I see you've become more civil as a global moderator and I appreciate it. I respect that you're trying to give me advice, but at this moment in time I'm in no position to really speak to you at the moment. I hope you understand.


Thank you.

Do you not understand? You can't force someone not to see your posts besides even if you did, they would still be able to do it with another account. The self moderated threads are not tedious at all, just create one and that's it and if someone hurts your feelings you can delete their post if you are so sensitive.

[Lauda]

This is completely wrong. Just because you don't like someone that does not mean that they aren't going to properly contribute to a thread that you've started (it could take off and be a big thread). I disagree with this suggestion. It would not be a ignore function anymore, but rather censoring/blocking one. I don't understand what the problem is with a combination of ignore and self moderated threads? You can control what posts are allowed and you would not see the posts of ignored users (thus can delete without reading). I always thought that it was sufficient.

No popular service that I know of does this; it's not needed. I have no doubt that it would just be abused, as you could easily shit talk a member behind their back and since you ignored them they would have no idea that it is going on. While I'm not saying that you would do that, I'm sure some members of the forum would. Let's not turn this forum into a high school.

As said, Self Moderation is the option that you most likely want. I don't much see why it would be that much of a hassle deleting someone's post compared to replying, which is what you said you wanted to avoid:

IMO hilariousandco has always been civil, however he doesn't sugar coat what he says to lessen the blow at all. This is quite right, as if someone is doing something wrong they should know about it, and trying to lessen the severity of the warning is less likely to make the person stop or change their ways.

Facebook does.   

[minifrij]

Facebook does.   

AFAIK unless something has changed blocking someone on Facebook doesn't stop you viewing their profile if the blocker's privacy isn't set properly. Forgive me if I'm wrong, it's been a few years since I used that shitshow properly.

Either way, the fact that Facebook has a similar system says it all haha

Yes, if you block someone on Facebook, neither of you can see each other's profiles, posts, etc.

ignore feature doesn't work perfect, if you ignore someone you still get PM from them (I tested this)

PM ignore and post ignore are two different things AFAIK: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=341982;sa=pmprefs

[The Sceptical Chymist]

I voted yes.  Look at that cryptsy thread with spoetnik and gleb spam posting all over it--it's all noise and no signal and I'd like to just not even see that either one has posted.  It's not a perfect suggestion but it's a good one.

I don't really believe OP is talking about people hurting his feelings. I don't think his feelings get hurt.


I think what he is trying to say is that he doesn't want to be bothered is all. I would definitely use that feature, because too many people want to start issues.

[Fwdxlsh]

Why that's wrong:
So? Out of sight, out of mind. To me, I personally wouldn't mind if I couldn't see it.



Also, the site is already "high school", because people talk about others. There's drama in the reputation forum. So you want people to see when people talk about them so they can get upset and distracted?


That sounds like high school. I don't really care if someone wants to talk about me, just as long as I can erase them from my thoughts and just focus on fighting for my future goals and endeavors. They can spend time on another human will I spend my time on building my future. Sometimes I myself will talk about someone, but it is not always to get that person's attention. It is to get everyone else's. Why should I have to be distracted from people like that?

I kind of want OP's idea. Especially if he gets to do the coding. Then we'll see what he's capable of.

Yeah, I agree. They are so annoying. More annoying than that mumu girl.


Hopefully the admin takes OP's advice, and OP delivers the coding he promised.

Just make an add on, plug in, ...

Lauda doesn't like "censorship or blocking", but Lauda stood by the self moderate option.

Yet another contradiction for Lauda. You honestly must be ill to have this many contradictions.

there is a huge difference.

moderation means: the deleted post cant be viewed by anyone.
the OP suggest: if i ignore you you are not able to view my posts

i think the first is ok, but the second isnt...so i dont like OP's suggestion and i dont see any contradiction in what lauda said.
