Ignoring members

I use IMDb a lot, and on there you can choose to ignore posts from certain members, a good thing if if you know they are trolls, timewasters or just thick. How I wish we could have something like that on here because there are a few (no names) who I find so annoying and would happily never read their drivel again.

Sounds good, has been asked a few times but as yet theres been no response from AB

some of the them are easy to spot so you can just scroll down to next reply. WIth a certain few it doesnt even effect the thread if you miss their replies. :)

I much prefer the idea that the offending postee (that a word?) recieves a violent electric shock each time they press the 'submit' button.

Good idea, Postdog. I've already got my first "ignoree" lined up. :)

I could be tempted to get onboard with B00's idea, too, though! :)

You've just reminded me, B00! My grandad has the best fly swat there is. It's similar to a tennis racket, but anything that touches it gets an electric shock. Very handy! :)

bobs, I'm liking that idea even better!

Who you calling annoying? ;-D

Yep. Electrocution sounds good. Or a poke in the eye that worked like a cuckoo from a clock out of the screen each time submit was pressed.

lol@ Natalie!

I like the sound of WS's grandads fly swatter thingy, I bet you can play some awesome truth or dare games when you're hammered with that!


Ahem

sorry, back to the topic........

Yes postdog, very good idea.

It's often used in place of a whoopee cushion at family gatherings, B00! :)

Have Your Say

With road tax hikes hitting those with 2001-2006 registered cars, would you consider selling up and buying a pre-2001 model to escape the the tax mans wrath?

Yes 

No 

The hikes don't really bother me
