Actually I don't think its a flaw, if they chose to ignore someone, then they have ignored him. To say that I wont ignore someone because someone else quotes him is really being quite silly and inconsistent.

Hi vince123123,
In reference to your words in red as your reply to my words in blue .........
My initial thought of a forum, "Enter at your own risk" or "Vent your Spleen" can have one sad flaw.....
People that are there but on ignore lists
It would be cluttered with mediators quoting others posts..
You have been a member since Oct 2002 and have posted 4058 times.
In all that time have you not noticed how some people deliberately
include a quote by someone that is on someone elses ignore list :dunno:
These morons are simply out to stirr things up and generally do.
These are the people that I refer to as mediators.
I thought you might have caught on to what my meaning was, sorry.

I see, well perhaps so - there will always be trouble makers around as well as people intending to stir **** up. My point was if someone chooses to ignore another person, evne if someone quotes the ignored person, the ignorer should remain consistent and ignore that ignoree. After all, the ignorer has already made a conscious decision to ignore, why change position just cos someone else repeated what the ignoree said.
But perhaps we are talking about two different things. I'd hvae thought the your idea of the forum has no link with ignored lists - poeple can still post their vents all they want, whether or not there are ignored lists or otherwise.

Hi vince123123,
I see your point, but it is not so easy.
Have you anyone on your ignore list ?
I did have one persone for a while some time back,
but it was impossible (for me) not to see much of what that person wrote.
When that person was quoted often and referred to,
as much as was my inital desire to ignore that person I could not.
Ok, I could have just contributed to 1 or 2 forums that the person did not frequent,
but that would be stupid.
As it happened, by catching a few items in some "mediators" posts,
I began to re-like that person I was trying to ignore.
..................................................................................
Just now a thought went through my mind ......
If I put myself on my ignore list, would I disappear :bsmilie:

I understand where you're coming from. However, like I said, if one already decides to ignore someone, even if you can physically read it, does that mean you have to reply? If you already made a conscious decision to ignroe someone, you don't need hte forum software to filter it out for you, just use your own self censorship and use the brain to literally ignore.
That's what ignore means, that you know its there, but you do not take cognizance of it
or respond to it. The forum function is more of "filtering" than ignoring.

I don't think he would bother.
no. sadly my list is still empty. i look here look there, nobody to add leh...
I'm open to all steam and thrash, regardless of how wordly it is. I have no need for the ignore function as I agree to disagree in this forum. I also have no lust to win every cat-fight that is waged in here as well.
:dunno: got any suggestion who I can add just for fun?

So, with all that has happened here so far......
I re -ask the question
Just had a thought, (I juess this may have been suggested often before).....
A forum that is not visable (like portraits on guest account), to members whose post count is below say 300.
The forum is for "Venting Your Spleen".
If a flame starts up in any other forum it gets moved to V.Y.S forum.
It will no doubt need a FULL TIME MOD
Forum title, "Enter at own risk"
I have no Yes or No to the actual idea, so far it looks like it might have some merrit.
What do you really think :dunno: is it an idea that the ADMIN might want to look into :think:
