Ignore list - do you?

[speedog]

Simple enough - do you utilize the 'ignore' feature and if so, how many do you figure you have on your ignore list?

For the record, exactly zero on my ignore list - have never used it here or on any other forum I have been a member of as I have found that even the most obnoxious posters can sometimes provide a post that has great insight.

[Unknown303]

Shouldn't this be a poll?

Welcome to my ignore list.

[dj_rice]

I have a 5 on mine. modded46, ZenOps, Thales of Miletus, Vagabond142. And last one is newyears1 but don't remember why that one made the cut.

[Twin_Cam_Turbo]

I just have zenops on mine.

I had thales on mine once things started getting out of hand with him ( when he started threatening people via pm and email and trying to dig up dirt on where people live and stuff). What a case he was.

Now no one.

[SKR]

I have 33 on mine. I'm surprised it's that many.

Simple enough, create your own thread if you want a poll. A poll-less thread usually elicits a better discussion IMHO..

Laid off people trying to stay connected?

[masoncgy]

None. I actually like reading comments from the radical fringe of the forum, it comforts me to know there are lots of people out there with far greater issues than myself... haha.

Was surprised at how many there were, don't even remember half of them. :nut:

Never used it myself. I'm not so idealistic to think that some fool will have occasional gems. But I'd like to be able to choose to ignore on a per-instance basis, rather than relying on some automated tool to shield me.

I think Arash is the only person I'd ever have considered blocking. I found his posts nonsensical.

Whatever happened to Arash anyhow?

Beyond is dying. At least the non-car-forums part.

I think this is more about the medium, than anything particular to the site itself. It's surprising it's held on this long.

Just Modelexis for now, Toma may be added if his hypocritical drivel continues.

[adamc]

FixedGear and HiTEMPguy, beyond is so much nicer without reading those two.

:love:

I'm glad that anyone can be so irritated by me on an internet forum to put me on ignore :rofl:

I did have Toma ignored for a while, but I took him off the list.

Arash didn't bug me at all, the people who responded to him didn't make any sense. It's like responding to a bot :nut:

[max_boost]

Nope it's the alternative newsfeed!

[quick_scar]

Robin Goodfellow is the only person on my list

[SKR]

Most of the people on my ignore list aren't there because I can't handle their opinions. They're there because they act like "one trick pony" is a compliment. Look at a guy like Arash, you know every one of his posts was going to be about exposing some conspiracy and calling everyone corporate shills. If I know what you've written before I read it, then why bother? There's been threads where almost the whole page is posts by two people that I've ignored, and I'm pretty sure it's probably just nonsense, and I can scroll right past it. And if I want to read it, I can.

The rest are probably just people posting dumb shit for the sake of posting dumb shit. I don't remember why some of them are on there but I assume I was right to do it so they stay there.

[revelations]

Zenflops has actually started taking his meds now and seems to be normal ..... what the hell?


But seriously, I wonder how many of these famous posters are just bots/mods designed to ramp up the traffic on beyond - after all its traffic that drives the revenue stream :dunno: (and many other sites do this as well)

Me either.

That guy was trying to build his own car vision, and had so many other valid points that were constantly shit upon.

[Tik-Tok]

So Sandy Hook WAS a government conspiracy because all the teachers cars were facing the same direction in the parking lot?

[btimbit]

Just two guys that are banned now anyway

[D'z Nutz]

It's funny when you clean up your ignore list and find out they had PMed you some stupid shit a while back that you never knew about cause you could never see it haha

Thank you for that. I feared once he was no longer satisfied with nobody listening to him on a forum that he'd start acting out his thoughts in real life. Maybe this way he'll just forget about so desperately trying to make people see his convoluted ways.

In the end, someone like that probably will act out in real life anyway, but at least Beyond's hands are clean in that.

As for the ignore list, yeah, I have a small list running; generally people who were just too "out there", or people who insisted on multiple occasions to resort to name calling and anger when I was trying to have a discussion/debate. I don't have time for either kinds of people.

[gpomp]

Three people in this thread are on my ignore list :rofl:

[Feruk]

Nobody.

I find threads by guys like Zenops and Toma entertaining. I prefer opposite views rather than self-confirming views as it leads to discussion. I even agree with Toma ~30% of the time.

I thought Robin Goodfellow was a bot when he/she started posting.

Still kinda do... :rofl:

[rx7boi]

No one on my ignore list.

Someone make a "Beyond's Most Hated 2015" thread :rofl:

[Masked Bandit]

I don't have anyone on my list. There are a few who are flat out nuts but a little flavour & lunacy from time to time is a good thing. It makes the rest of us look brilliant & well adjusted.

[mazdavirgin]

I don't have anyone on my ignore list. I rather read the forums unmodified with all the posted contents.

[NoPulp]

Nobody on this forum.


I only have 1 on another forum, and I moderate there :rofl:

[03ozwhip]

Zenops is the only one and maybe vagabond too, that I would ignore, I just haven't done it yet. I'm lazy.

Whoever you are, get lost or be warned that if you state anything out of the ordinary, then go into a private room and start punching yourself in the nuts.

That's the way it should be:)

I probably missed a thread somewhere but I've never seen that guy post anything more than some harmless geek stuff.

Unless you guys find video games, comic books and collectible figurines offensive or something. :rofl:
Was wondering the same thing. I lived with the guy for a couple of years and never had any problems with him. At all.

Vagabond is good shit.

:werd: on the good people part, I've never lived with him though.

As for ignore list, I only have one person on it but his account seems to be totally gone now too? Weird.

I'm sure hes a good guy IRL, nothing against him, he's never offended me, I'm sure he's harmless, I just find his posts annoying.

Zenops is a given, I don't have to explain that one.

Sort of related, sort of not but with some of the more controversial members being banned in the past 6-12 months, beyond is no doubt a more genteel place. Maybe that's the intent of these recent bans but I think we're going to see a forum that is coloured the way most of the forum members cars are, that is shades of white, grey and black.

I suppose this also could see the forum move more back to it's auto focused roots which may be what some really want - who knows why the recent ban came about, maybe that member was doing more than just posting up a lot of nonsense other members just didn't want to see although I just didn't bother going into those threads. Tough job being a moderator or forum owner - all I would like to see is at least a few pastels if colors are a no-no.
