ChiefsPlanet Thread on ignore - Page 2

Jack · 11-02-2010, 12:25 PM

I know the ignore feature is there for posters, but is there a way to put entire threads on ignore?

**Renegade** · 11-02-2010, 01:44 PM

All I do is not open the thread if I don't like thread title. Pretty simple to me.

It's a very useful feature, IMO. Threads about shit like NASCAR, golf, and wrestling don't exist in my world. It's great.

That's too much work. We need an automated solution that will know whether or not we will like a thread and ignore it if necessary.

I would start a thread about 2010 Oregon State football but it would be me and the crickets in there.

Yeah but you can miss out on some good ones like that!

This. DaFace, make it happen!

Oh, I understand. I was tempted to put it on ignore myself after the Texas game.

Well, I can't quite get to that level, but the FfVb software mentioned above can filter out threads based on prefix or words in the title, so you could at least get rid of all the KU threads if you don't want to see them or something like that.

I like your thinking.

Yeah, I used that for a while, but every time I'd refresh the front page, I'd see one of the threads for a split second before it disappeared, and then I'd wonder if I was missing something good. It would be easier for all of us if the board could just read our minds.

The damn thing can't even stay up consistently as it is - you expect it to become a psychic?

That's cool. I'd prefer to just nuke Lawrence, but I guess this is safer from a fallout perspective.

Thanks, Laz. I'll give that a try

For the record, I'm retired so it isn't an issue of work. My nephew moved up from CA and his two girls, ages 8 and 10 often stay the night with me. I have three 22" monitors (with ATI "Eyefinity") and at times have the CP off to one side. You can draw your own conclusions of why I would like to weed out some less than stellar offerings.

And for you young folks thinking this old Navy salt can't handle the content here. . .well, just go piss up a rope.
