Is there a way to "ignore" certain posters on the forums?

On the old forums we could “ignore” a poster via little drop-down. Is that gone now? I cannot find it. There are many people who I would rather not see in any feeds.

It’s gone. They were talking about it in the FAQ post about the new forum. No way to block and/or ignore. At least not yet.

That’s a good question actually. I don’t have the desire to ignore anybody, but it’s not a feature that should be taken away. Anyone know?

Edit: Mantlers says it’s gone. Is it a WIP that will return once it’s ready, or is it just not a possibility with Discourse?

Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, no way to ignore a poster is a deal breaker for me :frowning:

That is a good question. I loved the old ignore for the white knights and ultra trolls. You know the ones I mean.

click top character portrait in the top right hand corner
click preferences
go to notifications
put in a person to mute

Doesn’t fully solve your problem, but at least if they ever try to talk to you, you won’t be notified.

It’s being worked on, if I understand this right.

That is good at least.

Definitely needs to be an option.
Not having to see infantile crap like “troll thread” just because someone isnt intelligent to come up with a relevant response gets kinda old.
Yes, I can ignore it, but Id prefer being able to ignore the PERSON entirely, problem solved.

Excellent news, hadn’t seen that yet.

At least it’s in the works. Not being able to ignore users is a terrible fate.

Tried it, not seeing anywhere to ‘put in a person’ at all.

Yes, I believe you were one of the many that form the white knight unpaid squad. There were a lot of “female” blood elf pallys on that ignore list.
