Well, calling names is not really an olive branch Wink

I conceded that point.

I had no idea we could even add 500 plus users to our ignore lists (my ten or so users' list pales into insignificance against those sorts of numbers). That might be why some of the hard core ignorers have gresemonkey add-ons to mask users' posts (which makes you wonder why they are even in the Forum if they choose to ignore so many voices around them)

Respect with your decision to clean up your ignore list since it’s a big deal to do that when you are really trying to change and be better and give a chance towards those who you think have changed as well. It is easy to put them back if you’re still not satisfied with what they’re saying.

What do you think other aspects could be done similar to this? In a general sense.

Believe me I'd like to start 2023 afresh and was hoping that by watering down what I *could* have said hoped to start a dialogue in the hope of reaching out with an olive branch and clearing entrenched misunderstandings. Hence my comment that it is sad that I supported that user and they in turn ignore me.

However, you have to understand that you may not be able to change others' impressions/ideas/thoughts and move on. You can start afresh also by not caring that much about what others think. It's all about (your) mindset. (But I'm not saying anything new, isn't it?)

How many UID's do you have on ignore? And, what would be an "Okay" number (to have on ignore) ??

There's no rule for an "okay" number Cheesy

, it's really up to people's standards and, very important, the forum subs one is reading or ignoring.
I have P&S and also Altcoins and some others too on ignore, hence my ignore list was not very big. It had though nearly 500 entries.
I've read about people who couldn't open that settings page when reaching bigger numbers (I think that it was 2000). And I think that there's a good chance that at least 1/4 of my list was already made of inactive or banned accounts.

Let's stay in the Christmas spirit and not start flame wars here, please. It's not the purpose of this topic and it may force me lock it earlier than I intended.

Like the other posters in this this thread I have very few UID's on ignore - less than ten from recollection. How many UID's do you have on ignore? And, what would be an "Okay" number (to have on ignore) ??

For context, the previous poster (post #4) is sad owing to this being on their Trust Feedback page:

(so, @dkbit98, if this is a reason to ignore me, it's up to you,

Basically, you and I are being caught up in the cross fire of the stouch between these two persons.

Sad really.

Wow, are you going to do it regularly at the end of the year? I'm a little curious about this, sorry.

No, I don't have plans to do this on each end of the year. Maybe in 4-5 years I'll do it again Cheesy

Having people on ignore list means I didn't spend time reading posts with high chance to hold no value.
And I expect to have to put most of them back though the following months, excepting those who have became inactive and the very few that have improved.
Plus, if this becomes a rule, then it becomes more a standard than a Christmas surprise Grin

, which I also don't want to happen.

Well, I guess my case is different, because I think I do not have many shitposters on ignore, some like cryptoboss and such, I rather usually report shitposters but those who have years of experience in the forum with certain knowledge as franky1 or Timelord2067 I put them on ignore and I have never regretted. I think that the ignore is a great tool to avoid messes and headaches.

In my case it's not a matter of giving them a second chance, it's giving me the opportunity to have a more bearable experience in the forum.

OP, you're being very generous, which I respect. There have been a handful of members I've taken off my ignore list over the years, but from what I've seen very few deserve a second chance because most shitposters don't ever improve their post quality. That's not true of all of them, but it's a general rule that's so infrequently violated that I wouldn't even consider clearing my ignore list.

Same goes for my list of users blocked from sending me PMs. But hey, to each his own. I'm an old grinch who's got little sympathy for crappy posters, and you've got the Christmas spirit. Keep spreadin' the cheer!

So far I don't have many users in my ignore list, it only has a few users. But your idea seems pretty good considering it's always possible to wish someone was better now since being ignored. But I will double check before I delete everything, especially cheaters I think they should stay there forever.

I'm making this post because I think that some might be interested, especially after certain discussions not very long ago related to Jerry... (so, @dkbit98, if this is a reason to ignore me, it's up to you, I am playing fair and notifying you).
I was already thinking on this back then, but I made my mind just now and I've also done it now: I've cleaned up my ignore list.

It was not only as a "second chance" gesture (Merry Christmas!), it was also done in order to make sure I won't get into troubles with unresponsive "Ignore users settings" page.
Yeah, I also think that some may have improved in the past years (it's my first such cleanup), but I know that some will think that it's highly unlikely such things happen.

As a matter of fact I've already added back one user, so please don't be too harsh with me; the show goes on.
