How do you ignore a thread or forum?
 
I can see where my Ignore Manager is in my User CP, but I cannot figure out how to add a forum or thread to the ignore list.

Isn't it pretty easy to just avoid going into certain threads and forums?

Yes. I was just interested in how to do it since I can't figure it out.

Right now it is, but in the past 24 hours there have been three or four public social group forums created. (one of which is 'Blu-ray Owners Club', which I don't understand why that needed a forum...). I may need a Premium account just to block these monstrosities! Die by the sword.

Yeah, we need to be able to block those, or move them to a sub-forum sub-forum that is out of the way.

I think the some of the groups are just intended to be a listing of members. I created the ps3 group not with the intent on creating an actual forum, but just a place where someone can see who here owns a ps3.

I thought I'm on everybody's Ignore List. :shrug:

Do what i do, just ignore the thread/forum by not clicking on them... And yes, i have the tendency to be on everyone's ignore list as well. I guess soon i don't have to ignore anything, since i'll be ignored by everyone :)

Ignoring them is fine, but they are in an obtrusive area now. You have to scroll down to get to the Bargains in the bargains forum, and that is a pain (even with only 4 added at this point). I'm guessing IB didn't realize this was something that could be done.

according to the ignore manager you can choose to have ignored forum/threads not even appear while browsing. I just can't figure how to ignore them.

Ocelot 12-30-08 01:15 PM

^^^ good points, never really consider them... come to think of it, i've to scroll down every single time! Which is a huge waste of time considering i'm the complainer for the lack of the eject button on the remote for the Xbox 360's hd-dvd add-on.

Well, i'll be monitoring this thread, maybe there's a solution for better browsing of the site :)
