Quoting Ignored Users

Is there anyway that posts from users on your ignore list can actually be hidden too? It kind of sucks since since quoted posts showing up pretty much ruin the entire intent

Doing you a favor, fumanstan. By quoting you, it guarantees the mods will see your post.

By the way, I understand if it's a limitation of vBulletin and nothing can be done. Was just curious.

Re: Quoting Ignored Users

How many people actually use the ignore feature? I can't imagine ever needing to, I just 'manually' ignore posts as needed.

That's... nice? The mods always say to use the ignore feature rather then getting into it with another member, so it seemed like a good idea

Simple, just "ignore" members that use the quote feature.

So, posting in quotes keeps your post visible to people who have blocked you?

Re: Quoting Ignored Users

There is one person in this thread who is on my ignore list and it's pretty much every other post in this thread I'm seeing as "hidden".

However no one seems to have quoted him yet.

I hear what you are saying funman, but I'm not sure if it's possible. I will bring it up in the super secret mod layer and see what the big guys say.

It could be fun trying to guess who you're referring to

Speaking of quotes and ignored users, I sure as hell don't miss baracine.

Sure, but the other mods all have you on 'ignore', so what good will that do?

No way dude, that's unpossible!

Still inquiring though.

Re: Quoting Ignored Users

Ok I got an answer. It's not going to be possible - there are software limitations on the server that don't allow it. It just sees the blocked user's quote as simple text and there's no way to filter that out.
