New AO Feature I Just Discovered

I never had anyone point this feature out before so i figured id mention it


Its not very often we use the IGNORE function but i have found this out

The original poster of this topic, SHABE_15, has you on their ignore list. You are unable to reply to the threads they start.

So i think this is a very brilliant idea to keep lamers out of ur threads... Dont like what a user is saying? PUT HIM ON IGNORE and he wont be able to responde to ur thread!

this woulda been lovely if ever pointed out because it could have stop many useless post to many of our threads!


has anyone elese noticed this feature before ? and has it been posted by JP as a feature??

--NetSyN

I havn't noticed it. What we need to do is make a list of all the spammers/script kiddies (Like SHABE_15 as I was reading) and put it into a text, and each time you post a new thread, put them on the ignore list :D

you won't have to do it each time.. once a person is on the list, they stay there until you take them off.

I had noticed it before but I thought it was for ignoring any pm's from that person

shabe 15 is great

well.. well.. hackantionline.. swordmaster/nielsad2001
you can put me on your ignore list to stop me from replying to YOUR threads .. but that won't
stop me from replying under someone else's..

so.. am i to assume that you are shabe_15 as well as swordmaster and nielsad2001 ?

how many more nicks do you have up your sleeve ?

and to think I tried to help you out .. i guess that was a mistake

<rant> hackantionline nieslad2001 whoever u r u just ruined a perfectly good thread that is really ignorant u fecker u should apologies to netsyn and the rest of the ppl who`s threads u ruined and again u r a wan**r </rant>

BTW nice find netsyn :) sorry for this in your thread

Sum, just an FYI... The lamer in question was and is not Swordmaster, he is just trying to get swordmaster banned. Here is a thread in which HackAnti gives swordmaster some really rude advice http://www.antionline.com/showthread...readid=232949. Another thing HackAnti has used the top three current names in the banned list. So we all know he will be back yet again.... :( .... HackAnti placed me on the ignore, when I attempted to list all his previous names, and methods to identify him when he comes back... IE his signature...

Yes I noticed it a long time ago and one can even see who is ignoring them. However you cannot ignore a Moderator so ya still gotta be good cause they can see all threads :)

i noticed it before but i wasnt sure what exactly it did, originally i thought it just hid there posts from you seeing them and hid yours from them :S

-> Thanks for the info on the IGNORE function.

Thats cool, yet another great feature from JP. Thanks for the information NetSyn.

Cool. Makes a lot of sense. Way to go JP.

Guidance...

I definitly like the idea of keeping a list of rude users who don't post appropriate replys. Some users are on the border of being banned, and being left alone. These are the ones who would go on the list. Hackedantionline for example would be on the banned list so wouldn't have to be put on the list.

One problem though. How would the list be kept legit? I mean, how would we stop people from putting random usernames on the list just out of spite?

There's been a lot of discussion about suicidal threads working badly, one person (so called "pissant") can ruin a perfectly good thread. It's been suggested that the one who got many negs could be excluded from that thread. See where I'm coming? Would be easy to auto-add that person to every participant's ignore-list. That way they couldn't post any more stupid replies to that thread nor to any other person's thread.

Could also be enough to add that person to the thread starter's ignore list, I wonder will their messages from that thread get deleted or what then?

Of course still if the thread starter or many messages get negs thread should suicide but this could solve something.
