Whats the "ignore " thing on here ?

[Chris51]

As above ,I have ignore on the threads.

 

[ManTheVan]

I think there must be a bit of an experiment going on with the layout...

 

[DavidG58]

It’s maybe for new threads , posted on motorhome chat with nothing whatsoever to do with MH’s

 

[Dramfineday]

Generally, it's where you come across a thread where you feel your BP rising to a point where you exclaim something like GTF . Then you hit the ignore button. Usually it has little to do with motorhomes and associated apparatus and more to do with the humans contained therein.

BUT, since we are entitled to our views and are human, we will err, so Jim usually comes in and boots transgressors into the long grass....for a period of quiet reflection, where they can consider such riveting topics as cassette cleaning, waste pipe maintenence and gas pressure in the thunderbox.

Believe me, the ignore button can be your best friend

 

[Just smiffy]

I wouldn’t ignore anything.... I like getting my monies worth...

I ignore a lot of posts. I’m miserable so have no interest in many things that appear, so don’t want them taking up my screen, and that way I can just tap what’s new and i just get the stuff I want shown.

 

[Chris51]

I didnt do anything to put them on it just decided to show up and my own thread is the only one without it by side ,...dont know what happened ?

 

[Landy Andy]

The “ignore“ you see next to each post is so that you can choose to ignore the post if you want to. If you can see “ignore” that means you are not ignoring it, but it is giving you the option to, should you wish.

The 'ignore ' word in thread listings?
It'll be something not worth worrying about as people will get used to it
Like the Classifieds' red highlighted numbers.

 

[kevenh]

It'll be missing from your posts as there'll be an assumption the OP needs to find it easily.

edit: the OP doesn't get the 'ignore' listed

Is it a new thing then as its only just appeared ?

It's a relocated feature. Done sometime in the last day or 2 - not exactly sure when the change was done

 

[bobnick]

The mysterious Ignore button. Dug deep and found it once only to see where it was, never found it again.
Wouldn't use it anyway.
The people who want to ignore a given person will find it and use it.
Pretty sure a few ignore me but have no way of telling.

EDIT, this was before the ignore thing showing now.

I have been following a thread for a while but suddenly couldn't see it, turns out there is a ✓ in the ignore box that I didn't insert and I can't remove it.

If you click on your avatar along the top of the page select "Ignoring" from the list which appears. Then select the "Threads" tab and either choose "Unignore all" or select the dustbin symbol alongside any specific threads listed - if you have any of course. I'm admitting nothing.

That ignore link is gone, It was always there but when we moved other stuff it became more noticeable. if you want to ignore a thread you do it in the normal way, open the thread and then choose ignore.

 

[Minxy]

The 'ignore' option has been there for a while but you've probably not noticed it as to the right of it was the number of posts etc so your eyes would be drawn to that rather than the grey 'ignore' option.

It's useful so I can quickly ignore threads that I have no interest in whatsoever (eg satellite info) so they don't appear on my thread list. I don't ignore the person though, just the thread.

Nooo... I loved it where it was! I could say hello or happy birthday and then ignore the threads en mass.

 

[Jim]

No one ignores many thread, no one in this thread who want s it back ignores more than 30 threads. Its a very little used feature, so not necessary to show on every thread where it is hit by accident hundred of times a day.

If you want to ignore a thread click on it and hit the ignore button right there at the top, it takes 1 extra second.

You can still do that the ignore button is at the top of every thread

Really? How the heck do they do that? Inquisitive or too much falling down juice?

Many of those will never be seen again, they are birthday threads or introductions, so ignoring them isn't really necessary. All it does is slow the site for you with additional queries when you are on those forums.

I do not ignore much, but I would never ignore a thread I had not looked at. In my experience the thread title often bears little resemblance to what it is all about, or becomes all about. The fun of motorhome fun is often the subject creep, which is usually much more entertaining than the original topic.

This very thread is about a person having issues with the link

This one the same

How can I get rid of the "ignore " by side of threads ?

as above.

Yes but.... there are quite a few threads that have absolutely no interest to me - particularly ones about travelling to Europe in the current climate. I will now have to open the thread in order to ignore it.
I really don't have the time to do that in my busy, busy life

Ps You just keep on doing the wonderful job of herding all the cats that you have always done

 

[Landy Andy]

Especially happy birthday threads. I don’t care when it’s my birthday let alone anyone else’s (Obviously apart from the wife’s) so don’t want them. Then they keep reappearing at the top of the list when each person adds their condolences to the post.
