[Feature added] Color besides usernames for Ignored by % of established members.

[theymos]

The color is no longer displayed on topic pages where all pages are being displayed because the query is rather slow.

[🏰 TradeFortress 🏰]

Why can't we ignore theymos?

Seriously, this is going too far. Snooping on PMs, banning people you don't like, and removing ignore functionality for you because you're so much more important than the rest of us

[theymos]

I changed the algorithm to take into account your number of posts.

ignore_ratio = (established_ignore_count + 1 - posts / 500) / total_established_users

The range that you might see under your avatar is no longer quite accurate, though it's pretty close.

If I understand correctly someone with 500 post is twice more affected by ignores than someone with 1000 posts ?

It does make sense although there might be a problem with not having enough established_user to make up for the amount of BS posts speculators can make.

Are heavily ignored people removed from established_users ? That would act as a safety mechanism.

Not quite. For every 500 posts, one of your ignores is not counted.

No. I'm not sure that there's a link between being ignored a lot and having a "bad" ignore list.

In other words, for every 500 posts you have, you get a "get out of ignore count" card! I wonder what's smoothie's ignore color now.

Theymos, could you give an up to date listing for the most recent "high scores"?

As an added bonus, I will ignore anyone who has a scammer tag.

[Lethn]

You should just put the stats back up again Theymos, I liked being able to check how many people ignored me, it was 3 - 9 or something last I checked.

The number of people ignoring you dropped too far for that to show up.

[Matthew N. Wright]

You should replace the colors with little GPU fan icons representing how much noise and hot hair the person is giving out.

[Matthew N. Wright]

Theymos,

I was thinking about the fairness of this and all and remembering the previous arguments about potential abuse and such, and I wonder if you wouldn't mind implementing the following modifications:

• when a user on the forum is marked as a scammer, their ignore list is cleared
• when a user on the forum is banned, their ignore list is cleared
• (optionally) when a user on the forum has been inactive for a certain period of time (4 months, 1 year, anything), their ignore list is cleared

The reason for this would obviously be to combat abuse by sockpuppets (which is what I think happens on a regular basis). People will create a new account, click "ignore" on someone they don't like, then use the ignore color as "ammo" in a discussion about someone being "wrong" in some way.

[theymos]

when a user on the forum is marked as a scammer, their ignore list is cleared

As I've already said, scammers are not especially likely to have "incorrect" ignore lists.

when a user on the forum is banned, their ignore list is cleared

Alright, banned users are no longer counted for ignore color purposes.

(optionally) when a user on the forum has been inactive for a certain period of time (4 months, 1 year, anything), their ignore list is cleared

Ignores already lose importance over time due to the increasing member count.

People will create a new account, click "ignore" on someone they don't like

This won't do anything. You need 100 posts and 100 hours logged in for your ignores to count. Manipulation like that would be expensive, and I'd ban anyone who tried it.

[ironcross360]

How do I get rid of my ignores? Lol

[🏰 TradeFortress 🏰]

Your ignore button is not colored yet.

[Kluge]

Could we get high-scorers @ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=stats ? Bottom two categories don't appear to be functioning, anyway.

[Bitcoinpro]

On the ignore button, thats in the user name area to the left of the post.  You can see matthews is slightly highlighted?

Hm. Can we see if we're highlighted without creating a sock puppet account?

look at one of your posts while your not logged in

[jubalix]

I'm a celebrity!

Can I increase the bounty to have a flashing broadway-lit boarder around mine?

I want people to feel special when they choose to ignore me.

why does it say untrustworthy for Matthew N. Wright??? because of ignores?

No, it says untrustworthy because accounts on the forums can have "custom titles". Mine is set by Theymos because his personal opinion is that I'm untrustworthy.
