Feedback The “Ignore User” function should be a granted privilege to verified users/people of interest

[Looney Troons]

Whereas I’m not entirely sure this is a feature that can be implemented in XenForo, I’ve long thought that the blue checkmarks on this site should not have the ability to ignore/block other users by default, but rather it be a permission granted by staff.

There are some verified users on the site who are/were basically harmless (Geth, who is was a fag but harmless. Maybe LoRdKaT) that might be candidate a pass, but other cows like Tooter who incessantly talk shit to other users shouldn’t have the option to cower.

Of course, people can circumvent this by using Greasemonkey or similar in their browser, but it’ll take some effort on their end.

Edit: I had to edit this five or six times because I’m a lame mobile user.

I think it's funny that Tooter ignores me.

He should fucking clean his hovel.

Otherwise, I agree.

God @Lordkat was/is a faggot I hope he dies but I never blocked him blocking is for losers

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

I dunno, I don't think we want to scare them away by not at least giving them the illusion of some kind of control.

Only losers like @knobslobbin block people

I love your chicken. Thanks man.

ignore is for pussies.

 

[Just A Butt]

Are we sure this isn’t already a feature? I’ve been told by three or four people that they’re blocking me only to have them continue to respond.

If you have someone on ignore/block, you’ll receive a notification on the top and the bottom of the post to the extent of “this content may grind your gears,” and you are given the ability to make it the hidden posts appear.

Ignoring/Blocking is for redditors and facebook faggots. Censorship is fucking garbage and if you don't like a post, you should just ignore it yourself instead of completely making a user cease to exist.
It should only ever be used for spammers or incessant shitposters that do nothing except create noise in the threads and steal your time and focus.

 

[Nathan Higgers]

I think no user should be able to ignore anyone and the site should send every user the e-mail equivalent of a wedgie. On a daily basis.

I use the ignore feature to ignore women since they never have anything to say.

If we just banned all women, we wouldn't even need a block feature.

 

[The Fool]

Ban all men too. Let the farms turn into the troon website it was always meant to be.

No.

Just ban women.

 

[Daisymae]

Let them block. From what I've seen, there is a natural effect that happens with blocking.

Cows are more likely to block people tossing out a lot of white noise. You know the people who hit threads where cows are posting and they basically just toss retarded shit to try to get the cow's attention? Those people usually get blocked. The people who get under a cow's skin well enough, they are the ones that a cow won't block. They want to see what those people have to say, they are here because their personality demands they respond to that person. By allowing cows to block, it expedites the process of moving unfunny speds out of a thread.

I'm not convinced Tooter's ignore button actually works.

He recently announced on a livestream that he set me to ignore.

He also announced that he was setting me to ignore on a livestream a year ago. This has been my account that entire time.

Blocking and ignoring are for faggots. Just don't read it if you hate it so much.

Last thing KF needs is a bunch of terminal pussies echo chambering themselves in ass-patting posts about how much better they are than everyone else. It happened to SA. You give these retards even a tiny crack in the wood and
