ignoring people on the internet :heh

don't like it, don't read their posts. Going that extra mile to block them seems like a sucker move to me. At least from my perspective as the guy Jobber has had on ignore for nearly a decade.

Yeah, clicking an ignore button is an awful lot of work.

Not extra work, an extra mile of thought that could best be used somewhere else. Computer makes some horrible posts but I tend to just...not read them. Putting him on ignore would validate his shittiness IMO.

It's still less shit to scroll through.

I don't "suffer" from him. He's not posting nsfw shit like symbios used to do here, for instance.

Computer's posts suck, I don't read them. Hell I don't read most people's posts on GAF to be honest. I scan for posters I like, or the most entertaining posts. If I see a big wall of text I tend to ignore it. Whereas I read everything on The Bore

NeoGAF++ is now live in the Chrome Web Store.

Versions 3.0 and 3.1 were a little bugged with settings after install, but 3.2 should be good. Please report any bugs here as soon as you find them. I'm also taking feature requests.

Super Ignore is turned on by default, but the two extra options (hide quoted posts and hide threads) are not. To toggle these options, go to chrome://extensions and search for NeoGAF++, then click Options.

If you were running NeoGAF Quick Reply, to update to NeoGAF++, go to chrome://extensions, hit the Developer Mode checkbox, and click "Update extensions now."

Still no Firefox extension.  :maf

("How severely do you want to murder someone in the digital realm?"  :rofl )

Anyway, just tried it: It hides the OP and hiding threads doesn't seem to work for me. But nice job fixing it for Web 2.0 GAF, Andy.


Anyway: Mumei doesn't seem that bad from the run-ins I've had with them.

Also Shaka: Murdering Kyon... I know that feeling, but I haven't done it myself yet.

I kinda agree.

Out of all the forums I visit, I've only ignored one person, and it's only because she put me on ignore. It's a sports forum and 99% of the time, she's just trying to anti-jinx her favorite player and I always called her out on it. I made too much sense, and then BAM! So I figured that since she's not reading my post, why read hers?

But it's a waste of time because I still click the "read user's posts" button.  :lol Also, when people quote them, it kinda defeats the whole purpose.

It polls your ignore list every hour. If you've added a bunch of people to your ignore list after installing the extension, it could take that long to hide their threads or quoted posts.

But nice job fixing it for Web 2.0 GAF, Andy.

I like both Mumei and TDM to a degree.

Mumei's... different but friendly and well read.

TDM has always been friendly with GermanGAF (go figure).

You should see what he was posting in the German thread while Trab still posted there. She stopped, he stayed to save face so it wouldn't look like he was only posting there because of her. Didn't work, oops. I don't know how he posts there now though, still probably using Google translate to write stuff in German lol. But if he's really learning the language, good for him. Maybe his skills will score him mad pussy from Trab lookalikes if he ever visits Germany. I bet he can say "I'm a message board moderator, wanna party" in German. :pimp

Dunno. I'm pretty active in DeutschGAF and I don't see the problem with Mutes beyond the simping (and even that seems mostly harmless to me). I enjoy his posts about Euro history.

I don't think there's any validation here. I never announce putting people in ignore to begin with, and since July 2012 everyone on that list literally disappeared for me. :heh

@Rufus, regarding the topic of self imposed timeouts: It does make a difference because you get caught up in useless discussions less often. Especially in OT and Gaming. I still lurk in the Community threads that I usually frequent, but it still saves me a lot of time, partly because I'm not waiting for responses.

At least it helped the last time, I've since added some GAFfers on Twitter, plus The Bore, which might help defeat the purpose :-/

Well, if it ends up working despite the endless streams of compulsion fodder at your fingertips then props to you. I doubt it, but that might just be the perspective of a black belt procrastinator.

Ah, that explains it. I added someone to the ignore list quickly just to see if it removed their OP.

Isn't this SNES's alt?

That's what I've always assumed.

I'm 99% sure that snes's  most current alt is Clark W. Griswold. But he denies it vehemently, after being burned by being even more obvious with his last one.

I don't even know most of these people. And I think half of them are banned by now. I will literally double it whence the Andrex finally updates his extension. I just don't give a fuck.

I think it's impossible to avoid Count Dookakke's posts. Either people are quoting him for that HILARIOUS first post he made or they're quoting him in a thread dealing with religion/atheism because he's an insufferable asshole in those threads. Okay, all threads.

My ignore list is Busty and Sipowicz. Sipowicz was just angry in every post, and not even in a fun way.
ok.

When I was still on GAF, my ignore list was pretty much the Domesday Book. There was dude there who was notorious for having a lengthy ignore list and it paled in comparison to mine.

Well as soon as Andy's extension gets updated and posts quoting ignored members start disappearing. He'll get wiped out once and for all. Though pages of threads he participate in will indeed be incredibly short lol.

It was updated with that option last night, lol.

In that case it's not working correctly for me, as I'm still seeing posts quoting them, unless I'm doing something wrong. :(

From the options, I checked the second option under super ignore. But fwiw, whenever I tick "super ignore" and refresh, it goes back to being unticked. I never thought twice about it because it was always on by default and seemingly functional.

You have a bugged version. You'll have to uninstall and reinstall the extension unfortunately.

Nope, same problem. Didn't change any options this time aside from enabling the option to nuke quotes. I even disabled all my other extensions in case there was a conflict.

Is it saving the checkboxes? Make sure Super Ignore itself is checked.

Shaka Khan

  • Leather Jihadist
  • Senior Member
Yeah, the checks are all saved, but it's not working for some reason. :\

Before uninstalling I had quick replies disabled, for some reasons the check on super ignore wasn't saving when QR was unchecked. So when I uninstalled/installed I left it enabled and just checked hiding posts quoting ignored posters.

Andrex, if I am to understand correctly your plugin/extension deal only ignores threads from users on the ignore list?

Will this ever be possible:

It refreshes its internal version of your ignore list every hour, so could that be the issue?

Hmm, can you do something for me? Can you:

1. Go into the Options page
2. Hit Ctrl+Shift+J
3. Go to the Resources tab
4. Open the Local Storage entry on the left side
5. Click into the line that starts with chrome-extension://...
6. See what's there?

Here's what it should look like after a fresh install:



Here's what it should look like with both options checked and someone on your ignore list:

Yes, that should be easily possible. The hard part would be making it sync between your browser sessions but Chrome has APIs for that, or so I've heard.

Oh god I really hope animegaf isn't acting all smug about the bechdel test. Sure it passes the letter but certainly not the spirit since most of those shows are pandering to pathetic male nerd audiences. I mean, I like mai waifu Misaka as much as the next weeaboo but I don't hold it up as some feminist accomplishment
