Ignoring members

[Lofty1984]

Why’s is it not possible to ignore content from tff mods ?

 

[roscoe erf]

We Woudn’t want people to think we are ignoring them.

bet there are a few that wish you would

 

[opininionated]

No your not unusual - very few members use the ignore function

Just a few that are that intolerant of others point of view it seems

Pot and kettle there clive,


P.s. Attempt at humour, NOT TROLLING

There is a big difference between being intolerant of vs simply not agreeing with others

I’m aways happy to agree to disagree !

One thing all involved in running and moderating TFF have to get fast is a very thick skin !

I’m not blaming anyone that wants to contribute that’s up to them wouldn’t be a very good forum if no one contributed, I just fail to see how being a mod makes them exempt from being ignored or is that a privilege of being a mod that they can force content on people ?

Every one is equal, just some are more equal than others

Just unwatch, things that make you smile thread it's what I did

We could have a what makes you retch thread

Aren’t posts missing when up you ignore someone then show up if it’s quoted?
there is certain members long winded extremely pointlessly detailed posts which aren’t worth reading but why ignore it, just start reading and as you loose interest by the second sentence then move on.

Oh the irony. Some people insist on trolling, and get put on ignore.
As you say, trouble is you end up with gaps in threads, which then make no sense at all.
One or 2 have an anti farmer agenda, which is odd, given it's a farming forum, but there you go. They get put on ignore too.
Then there's the Aussie who can't form a post without using the word pansy. And we know he's not typing pansy.
He's on ignore...
I did once joke about having 20,000 members on ignore. Maybe it's just me......

And there’s a bit of totty about..

Very good, but what' that gotta do with ignoring members?

I have had foss barmer on ignore for months now. It has made TFF a much more enjoyable experience.

Don’t think I have found any other user I have ever felt like ignoring.

.

You are exactly right there It would seem there are a few extremely jealous individuals who are either failed farmers or wanna be farmers who can’t quite make it and have a massive chip on their shoulders and take delight in ruining threads, trolling and trying to provoke people.

Reading their posts it’s obvious they have issues

You've not been looking very hard then!
I've only just found the ignore button, now there's nothing to read.

where have you been hiding he's been a mod for some time couldn't you tell

 

[Derrick Hughes]

That's good then . But my first contact with him and he's locking doors like a Jailer

I think it's pretty light moderation to be fair. Most of the PM's and reports are from folks who want other threads / posters moderated. As in all things it's a fine balance. If anything I think I'm more likely to let threads run on or remain in the main ag category for too long. I think it's pretty obvious why one thread was locked and another moved off Agricultural Matters. If you want to discuss either, I'm happy to do so

Because it was a direct result of another thread that was going bad

I think it's a good topic of discussion , some think trump is going bad does that mean we can't discus him

I'm sorry. I have not the faintest idea what you are talking about. The thread I locked was as a direct result of a spat on another thread that had to be moderated
