    Ignoring/hiding topics

    Is there any way to do this? I know it’s easy enough to just skip over them but sometimes there are topics started that for whatever reason just don’t interest me, so having a way to hide them would be nice.

    I know you can block individual peoples' posts...

      Yeah I figured that one out, not that I’ve needed to block anyone currently here. Thanks though.

    I was just wishing to have the same ability today.

      It wouldn't be a terrible feature to enable. I know some folks tolerate some of us knuckle heads and don't want to fully block us, but also don't want to see certain posts over and over in recent posts. Used to be able to a long time ago on vBulletin and myBB (I think it needed a plugin I forget it's been a hot minute)

        99.9% of the time I use this site by looking through the recent posts. Most of the miscellaneous topics fall off after a week so it’s not really a big deal, but it would be nice to ignore things I have no intention of reading or contributing to.

        Andrrr I navigate here the same way, so I understand completely.

      Nice idea. The added benefit would be we’d get more recent topics that we might like to contribute to instead of them falling off.

        I wasn’t even thinking of that but good point.

      I don't know of it, but RayJ is the h'whiz with vBulletin's hidden features. For the time being we just skip over the topics that we aren't interested in.

        vBulletin does not have any way to do this. A custom solution would have be created. I will look into this more when I have some time.

        No, no, no. It’s not that some of you don’t matter, it’s what you SAY that doesn’t matter. 😉😂

      I just delete in notification. Take for instance Taylor Swift. Delete, Delete. No big deal. Only open the ones that interest me in the Recent Post folder.

        If not interested just ignore skip over and don't open. I think it's nice getting to know people other than just bbq, it rounds things out. No big deal.

          That’s what I usually do. I agree it’s nice to get to know the non-bbq side of people here also. I read through more of the off-topic channel topics than I don’t.

        You can just come out and tell me you are tired of skipping over my posts. I'll be OK. Eventually. Might take awhile. I am pretty fragile.

          Only because I know everyone depends on my approval so much and my disapproval could cause irreparable damage to one's psyche, I'd never call out any topics *cough, Cracker Barrel* that would immediately get the hidden treatment *cough, Taylor Swift*. Panhead John
