Question to Jinn and general public
One thing i never got to deep into is Web programming, so not sure if this is even doable:
Is there a way to set up the ignore users list that will apply to threads, not only to PM?
I mean; like if there is someone out there that you really don’t care to see their point of view could it be set in your preferences to drop that persons posts out of all treads – for your personal viewing only?
Re: Question to Jinn and general public
red,
I'm not really addressed here as I'm not Jinn nor "general public" however, while it's certainly doable, Jinn would have to go to pretty extraordinary lenghts to set up many individual filters. Easier would be, as TourGuide has implied--stop the offender from posting. I think I know to whom you're referring and would support whatever is necesary to ensure you are respected--lovely sweetie that you are.

I don’t program HTML/XML or web applications, but do know enough that there is the way to set up filter and have every person enter preferences - and set personalized views - it would not be Jinn who is setting it for everyone every time they change their mind.
This was posted as suggestion and under no circumstances would i ever want to create any extraneous and/or unnecessary work for our gracious host.
Back To The Original Subject...
Red, that same 'ignore users' button that prevents PMs will also cause your (or at least MY) browser to skip over postings by the person to be ignored. I have used that feature and that's how it worked for me (in fact, I didn't realize it would block PMs. Learn something new every day).
By the way, if you want to ask Jinn how (or whether) to do something, the best way is to send him a PM...unless he's got you on his 'ignore' list...
Re: Back To The Original Subject...
LOL! Can you imagine who in their right mind would have redEva on their ignore list--whay that's as far fetched as somebody thinking of a female milking farm to provide an alternative to Mod Cow disease or something...
