Seed22 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Tired of the back 'n forth? Simply go under your account, go to 'Ignored Users', then type in the name of those who you wish to ignore. No more back n forth, no more constantly negative people in your thread! Use it. Love it. Pass it on! *EDIT: changed phrasing around a bit to uh, be better suited to discussion I guess?

arcane Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Not sure if it’s true, but I think you can even use this button on posters so full of themselves that they call people cheerleaders for disagreeing with themselves. 4 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember to then add what content from them you no longer wish to see (posts, DMs, etc), 1 - Simple guide for newcomers. - Money making included among other things. - Tanker Fire Armor: the Turtle, the Allrounder, the Dragon, and compilation of Fire Armor builds. - Tanker Stone Armor: beginner friendly (near) immortal Tanker for leveling/end-game and Stone Armor framework. - Brute Rad/Stone and compilation of Brute Stone Armor builds.

Glacier Peak Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Yeah I'm all about the ignore function. Even the window lickers on this forum are part of the community. Better to have and ignore, than have not and ignore, as it were. I lead weekly Indom Badge Runs / A newer giant monster guide by Glacier Peak / A tour of Pocket D easter eggs! / Arena All-Star Accolade Guide! Best Post Ever....

UltraAlt Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Use ignore, but don't abuse it. You can only ignore 30 in game before they the oldest one gets kicked off the end of the list. You can ignore all the people you want in the forums. Before long you will have no one to converse with -or- only the civilized, non-trolling posters to have discussions with. I have plenty of civilized, non-trolling posters to have discussions, with and my forum experience is much better for use of the ignore function. 1 1 1 If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore. (It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications) Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case. But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable. Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ukase Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) Yeah, but don't you see responses to some ignored entity and wonder what the heck they're talking about? Also - ignoring people just because you don't care for their views or their tone...well, doesn't that something about you? If we cannot read other people's opinions without it ruining our day, then isn't something amiss? You can't let things out of your control impact your life. Particularly things that only exist in pixel form. Yes, you can certainly get frustrated that something happened in game, or you can certainly be irritated by words you read. But if you have to ignore those people for your own piece of mind, than I would think there's really something else going on. But hey, that's just me. There's about 6 folks in these forums that I pretty much KNOW they are going to take the opposite side of my issue. A couple of them, I swear they are specifically trolling just me, but I also know that's just perception bias. The other 4 seem fairly well thought out. And I make a point to send DMs to those people that I appreciate their efforts to be civil, and while I respect their views, I still disagree. Sure, I could ignore the first two, but I have to keep an open mind in these crazy debates, because sometimes I'm very wrong. To be a man, you MUST be willing to appear inconsistent, and then change your mind, if the facts tell you that you've been wrong. Otherwise, you're a fool, sticking your head in the sand.

Seed22 Posted October 14, 2022 Author Share Posted October 14, 2022 (edited) 6 hours ago, Snarky said: what the hell does this mean? i have read it 3 times. where is the COFFEE It was a generic term i heard round these here parts. Honestly? I could care less what any of you think almost about well, anything(no offense. It’s a game, and I don’t know you folks all that well), but I think if people are slinging the term around, I’d try and include it in the blurb. I should add, wrong or right in CoH is irrelevant. But missing key info in feedback threads thanks to the usual back n forth between the same offenders? Not great.

Cutting toxic exes or toxic family members or toxic friends is not a weak move from a weak person.

No. I don't really use the ignore function a whole lot (my in-game ignore list has all of like, one person on it), but if someone is on my ignore list, it's because I don't care what they have to say I think it's important to recognize the distinction between a person choosing to ignore someone else because they make them 'mad', or ignoring someone because they have better things to do than than acknowledge a clown car full of bad takes in human form. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, putting someone on ignore for the wildest and ice cold takes that these forums produce can be cathartic and better for mental health. Not wanting to engage with someone says you're more willing to not see what someone you disagree with. That's a powerful and good move, because no one should subject themselves to certain posters if it agitates them. 3 hours ago, Ukase said: You can't let things out of your control impact your life.

But if you have to ignore those people for your own piece of mind, than I would think there's really something else going on. Shaming people or otherwise claiming things like this is dangerous. No one owes someone else their attention and so on. If someone is making some absolutely brainless takes about development (in the example of using these forums) or spinning conspiracy theories? Then yes, they should absolutely be ignored. Being frustrated and irritated and ignoring the source of that is natural. It's not harmful like you're painting it to be. 3 hours ago, Ukase said: To be a man, you MUST be willing to appear inconsistent, and then change your mind, if the facts tell you that you've been wrong. Otherwise, you're a fool, sticking your head in the sand. Demeaning ("You're a fool") people for not wanting to see or engage with other people is bad. Just straight up bad. Nothing about this is "being a man." 2 1 alright buddy, it's time to shit yourselfcasts earthquake, activates dispersion bubble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
