There's this really annoying person that linked his FB and GBATemp account that constantly updates his status on things that no one on GBATemp would have any clue what he's talking about. I blocked/ignored him on GBATemp, but it still shows the status updates for his every update to me. Can it be made where if you block a member, all their "Status Updates" get hidden as well?
 
I see you found my post, I was just PM'ing you about it :P

But yea, no reply from anyone that can do something about it. It doesn't seem like it's a high concern to them.
 
I think the members of the forum need to have explained to them what trolling means before any adjustments are made to the Ignoring/Blocking function. Differing opinions does not warrant a block.

I don't think anyone blocks anyone with a different opinion at all. I mean there are alot of people here that disagree with me but I don't block or ignore them but I do block people I do deem to be trolls and they can be on GBATemp for all I care but I just don't want to see it.
 
different opinions =/= trolling

its obvious to see who is a troll and who isn't and when you ignore the troll you want to ignore them fully.

Most users on this forum are immature. The reason people don't block people alot is because they probably don't know how to.

@[member='BlazeV']: That's bullshit. People won't know the difference when they're enraged.

Doesn't change how I think on the matter and for the sake of not derailing the thread with my personal opinion if you want to debate this then feel free to PM me.
 
I'm gonna assume because it kinda makes it a little easy to ban someone or something. I don't know what the warn level is meant to do really.

Warn levels are meant to warn you so that you stop the wrong, anti-temp stuff that you are doing. If you get one, you will know what it means.

Ah okay. I never got one in the 1+ month I was here so I guess i'm doing quite good at the moment.

Who cares what people do and don't want to see?
It's none of your concern really.

Should I count myself as one of a lucky few as I have never felt the need to block someone?

its not bullshit there is a big difference between trolling and giving your opinion.

You cannot assume everyone will know the difference.
i'm not assuming they know the difference but i just want a better system in the first place

Like what? A trollmeter?
Edit: What good would that even do? Writing someone off as a troll based on a metric like that would prevent you from ever seeing the amazing things these people can say if they actually bother to not troll you.

Dont even pray for one. It is deadly (at least for me).

Not praying for any but just saying I guess i'm smart enough to stay clear of situations where that might happen.

Yes I think you should feel lucky, either that or your very resistant.

Tell that to the rest of the forum, Hells.

Well that means you have not encountered some pesky guy/spambot. So yes you are lucky. Though I have never felt the urge to block too. So we are at the same side. :)

what good is ignoring the troll that does nothnig more than annoy you and they proabably never even post anything important in the first place apart from crap that feeds their trolling so missing out on those amzing trolling is good.
