Geez, Boomers, really...

Couper's feelings for me border on hatred which are probably the OPPOSITE of an intarweb crush, eh Coups?

That being said, I remember once upon a time...he was the "Nice Guy." It's just cute to see it again. Despite the fact that it is directed elsewhere, of course.

i dont hate u at all, i just get exasperated talking to you. u dont seem to grasp any concept of anything when we spoke. in the end after pulling most my heads hair out, i gave up, thus why u think i hate u.

hey now.

this thread is about how i hate someone else.

what's all this other gibberish about.

PS. Del, better know who I'm talking about. But this person hasn't posted a new thread this week, unless the ignore feature is fixed to my liking.

Hmmmmm, is there an exclamation mark involved here?

And no, it's not the ignore, I think the person in question has just been too "busy"... ha ha

I always wanted to be able to do a total ignore instead of the watered-down version VB has, but from a programming perspective I think it would be pretty bloody hard. Then again, nothing's impossible...

I don't think it should be that hard. Every time a thread or group of threads is retrieved from the database it must retrieve the username of the thread starter of each thread in order to display that column on the forum table.

So the each "row" result of the query probably contains a field like 'thread_starter.' It would be pretty easy to simply compare that field to the contents of the logged in user's ignore list and not echo the row of information if a match is found.

The only problem I see is that the algorithm probably retrieves a constant number of threads and displays them, so if you had ignored threads in the bunch it might display fewer threads on a page than it otherwise would. This could be avoided by repeating the querying process until threadsperpage threads have been displayed, but this would place additional stress on the database which may not be worth it.
