    Now if only there was some way to keep the rest of the world out. Then I would never have to be disagreed with, and everything could be happy all the time!

    Quick, someone insert a gif of a unicorn farting rainbows.

    Sweeping judgements by it's-my-way-or-you're-an-idiot-frequent-flyers with messages for all "you people" - my favorite!! So very glad I could make your day a full 100% enjoyable.
    Circling back one more time in the hope to make everyone's ignore list. If ignoring every high volume user on the site will stop you people from posting whiny baby threads about mean people that said NO to your 10 day juice fasting plan, I'm 100% for it.

    I have everyone on this site, besides myself, on ignore. I haven't seen one post in this thread.

    OP in all seriousness, thanks for sharing. If knowing about this feature cuts down on the number of posts that get reported then that's a win to me. :flowerforyou:

    Is there a way to perma-block someone? As in not see them at all? Not on your friends pages, timelines, anywhere at all? That would be ideal. Thanks.

    I don't think it works if they send you a private message, but yes - you can delete them from seeing them in the forums by clicking the down arrow beside the name, under the picture and selecting "block user,"

    You can block users from sending you PMs. Go to your inbox and select any message and open it. In the header, it says "block user" and that will prevent you from seeing their PMs or Friend Requests in the future.

    Unfortunately the only way to make sure that you don't see them in other friend's friend lists or feeds is to murder them and then have everyone get the "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" treatment.

    I just tested the ignore feature to see what the fuss is about. Yeah, no way I'd stick to that. i'd unignore people as soon as I saw them post again.
    UGH

  • Thank you! I really enjoy seeing how others are doing, makes me feel not so alone in my quest! And, for the most part, it really helps to inspire me! But seeing all the negativity really has the opposite affect!

    Doesn't get rid of them if you have mutual friends with them.

    You can never get rid of them... completely.

  • That is a nice feature. But I just remove folks. Why hide them when you can delete them? :)

    This trick puts the enjoyment BACK into the forum and allows you to selectively remove from your view the jerks.

    I think the jerks are the funnest part of the forum! I'm immensly entertained by the blow up threads.

    Yup!

    I wish there was an "ignore annoying thread" option. Instead, I have to rely on my rascally whimsy.

    I was thinking the same thing. Wish I could ignore threads by keyword or key phrases, like "who's hotter" or "rate" or "fill in this blank with any celebrity's name".

    Call me Molly Ringwald, but I always wanted to hit that...


    I had the biggest crush on Molly Ringwald 25ish years ago.

    (Now, eh, not so much.)
