Default Will you use the ignore feature?

Just trying to get a guage on it myself. I've got 3 people on it so far, one is a semi-regular Oilfan and the other two are just random dummies who have said stupid things this morning.

I doubt I'll use it alot, but it's a handy feature.

How many do you have on the list so far?

I probably won't. I get too curious about what was said I'd be turning it off and on too much.

When you see a user like "timmygansta" saying silly things to start off the morning you know it's easier to just turn him off.

Can't imagine I'll use it much. I guess you're still giong to see other peoples replys to ignored messages and when they've quoted from them. So if there's a big arguement going and and you can see it anyways, what's the point.
Though I imagine it'll have it's uses.
Not opposed to it at all.

Not going to use it. I like reading the dummies sometimes, good for a laugh and good to sharpen the internet attack skills. I'd only ignore someone if they post racist or bigotted hate, which isn't a problem on this board.

If I ignore the idiots, how can I achieve the gratification of being a Know-It-All?

I think I will probably use the ignore feature a little bit. I'm a bit of a hot head so being able to ignore a poster who is getting on my nerves would be a benefit to me.

I don't think I will. Much like the others have mentioned, I like reading posts, regardless of good, bad, weird, or odd.

No one bothers me THAT much. If they do, it's a handy feature to have, but I like the good laugh once in awhile when the dummies come out.

I've got Jordon on mine. As far as I'm concerned, he never came back.

BTW, when is an appropriate smiley for anything unless something racy is posted? I can't see myself using it a whole lot.

I don't see me using the ignore feature. However I do use the skim feature, or skip feature from time to time

I probably won't use it very often. I can't stand a couple of posters, but still find it interesting to read the stupid things that they have to say... sometimes.

Edit: What I am using is the Quick Reply feature... not sure why I didn't bother to use it before!

What's the skim feature? I did a quick search but couldn't find anything out about that term?

I'll just use it for posters who repeatedly say stupid things that take away from my enjoyment of the board.

I've only got one ignored and don't expect there will be others.

I probably would have put a few Canuck trolls from the '04 playoff run on it, but they were banned pretty quickly anyways (not talking about the Nuck fans that post here on a regular basis, I have no problem with any of them).

I doubt I'll put anyone on my list, but it may depend if the Canucks and Flames meet in the playoffs again

One on my list, and will likely stay there for good.

Can't see myself using it very often otherwise...explicit trolls are gone soon enough thanks to mods, guys Brownone and Mainflame rile up a bunch here, but I find them humorous for being so extreme at times...or as Cow says, adding flavour.

Nope. I get a kick out of the ######ed posts, and the reaction people have to them.
