Add optional "IGNORE" feature to the forums.

There's a lot of noise
on these forums and it has caused my right index finger to grow unnaturally
large and muscular from all the exercise it gets scrolling past posts with
questionable value in otherwise interesting threads, usually attributable to
the same individuals. It's like an itch that won't quit. Therefore, I think it would be nice to have an "IGNORE"
feature available tied to user accounts.

Sorry, even if I were looking to contract with another IT support firm, you kind of blew the interview process. Plus you're kind of a dime-a-dozen these days. I've paid coders and graphics artists in Lithuania to Pakistan 10 cents on the dollar versus US-based coders for equivalent work. Thanks Fiverr and globalization. Saved me a bundle.

hah too late buddy, you already admitted that your stuff breaks. You're spending your money wrong ;)

Outsourcing your IT like that is on par with marrying a mail-order-bride and expecting true love. Your kind of bad decision making is a dime-a-dozen, which is why there's always so much work for folks like me.

I do love spending money. Consider it my contribution to stimulating the wider economy.

Now there's the reply I was expecting! Hey, that's what support services are for. You're welcome.

I don't think I will use this Ignore feature, this is just IMO an undividual esthetic display choice, and I will had prefer to be able to select individually E.g. for Moderator, display text Italic and in blue, for this guy make it in red bold, for this one put all under a Spoiler button (I will click anyway) or use a smaller font, etc ;). At least could have some default settings (I like to see differences for mods from other forum), and some we can customizes.

I understand this black and white theme come probably from Oculus choice. At least we have our avatars pictures bringing some colors here ;)

I wish they were a bit bigger though. They only take up 1.5% of my screen width, plus 30% for the forum itself. That's over two thirds of the screen just blank.
(I really should start reading the forum on my second monitor, it's in portrait orientation)

(At least we don't have people on here with half page animated signatures, like I've seen on other forums)

Anyone notice there is a 5 person limit to the Ignore List? There goes my chance to have this place all to myself...
