[QUOTE="slugboy, post: 900990, member: 282"] We have a lot of posters on GTSwarm. Even if you like 99% of the posters here, that 1% is going to make your time here less fun. With all the disruption of both a new football Head Coaching search AND a new AD search, we’re going to see a lot of posts that some of us think are just nuts. When mods suggest that you “ignore” a user, we’re not telling you to tough it out. There’s a magic button on everyone’s profile. When you see something stupid, you have three choices: [LIST=1] [*]report it to the mods. If it’s offensive conduct or against the rules, we’ll do something. If it’s just idiotic, then there are the other options [*]reply to the poster. They may change their minds. You may change your mind. It happens, but not frequently [*]summon up your intestinal fortitude and grit your way through the stupid post. There’s only so much grit most of us have, so make sure that this is really the option you want. [*]Or, you can hit the magic “Ignore” button. It makes GTSwarm a little more like Eden, frankly. [/LIST] It’s not weakness to hit the Ignore button. It’s definitely not weaker than hitting the “reply” button. It’s not revenge—there’s no need to tell the stupid poster you put them on “Ignore”; just let them post idiotic things while you bask in the warmth of never seeing them unless someone else takes option #2 above. You can’t ignore mods—sorry. It’s probably worth ignoring mods, but we can’t do our job if you ignore us, so the feature won’t let you block us. We’ll try not to post idiotic stuff often. Anyway, I’m not picking on Techster in particular (Sorry [USER=360]@Techster[/USER]), but it was the easiest screenshot. [LIST=1] [*]When you see a stupid post, click on the poster’s name [*]There’s a magic [I]Ignore[/I] button [*]Click it [*]Feel warm and toasty. Enjoy your favorite treat—coffee, chocolate, whatever [/LIST] [ATTACH type="full" alt="8A7EBC54-27B8-410B-9739-5EB882D0EE8D.jpeg"]13202[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
