The Ignore Button
Can it be modified to actually ignore users rather than "hide" their posts where they are still visible. Not to mention their threads still show in the thread list. We are always told to ignore annoying members and people we feel are spamming threads, but the ignore feature is not effective.
Perhaps we could give that top secret little admin functionality that REALLY puts people on ignore to the Premium Members? That would be an awesome perk to buying a PM.
(P.S. Add a search function to the Private Message box for sponsors and PMs)

I have a funny feeling no mod is going to do anything about it.
I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way. One of moderators' many jobs is to handle these sort of requests, as necessary, of course. Feel free to contact me if there are any problems regarding the forum content and/or its members (including mods).
As far as davidv, I don't think the guy you quoted was referring to him - those aren't his threads. BTW, davidv's been here a long time (longer than most) and that has always been his style.

JEKL I was not referring to Davidv. The guy I am talking about makes the threads not just post in certain ones. He makes the most worthless threads, doesnt own a Z and post the same stuff on all his other forums. I have him on ignore but his threads still show up...
Seriously why the fukc do we need a new thread for every ****ing movie, *****, car, shoe, piece of candy, new tampon, new koolaid flavor, change in temperature that this guy experiences. I have never known a man to crave so much attention in my life. The fact that he has no interest in 350z's is utterly hilarious.
I would love for his name to never come up again in my searches.

Sorry, didn't mean to put words into your mouth. He was the first person that came to mind when 3hree5ive0ero mentioned post whoring. Continuously bumping 6 month old threads to ask a person who hasn't been active in 5 months if they bought a 350Z is the definition of post whoring. If I was a betting man, I would wager that someone in a position of authority here has noticed, yet it still occurs on a weekly basis.

agreed real men don't ignore...
deal with it...E-thugging....make it your hobby...
if we get rid of these certain characters this will become a very boring place...

If it were solely up to me, this place would be a lot cleaner. But that also means a lot of the post ****** (most people in OT) would be gone, many would get banned for inciting stupid arguments, some of the sub-forums wouldn't exist, etc.
As much as I'd like for the forum to change, drastic changes and lack of leniency are unfavorable in the long run.
The IGNORE option should be available by clicking on their name.
We should be able to mark a thread as ignored.
When somebody quotes an ignored member (with their name boldly listed in the quote) the ignore filter should catch it.

I friendly PM asking me not to do it again would have sufficed, but I guess certain mods just like to remind everyone how badass they are
