does this forum have the ability to "ignore" members? if so, how?
 

I learn a lot here and enjoy it. There is no moderator here cleaning up threads so I want to know how to ignore complete retards so I never see their lame posts..... how is this done? Other forums have it set up pretty easy.
Thanks.

1. "Quick links" drop down (visible on any page if you are logged in - near top/right).

2. Select "edit options" from drop down menu.

3. Select "edit ignore list" - left/middle side of page.

4) Add member to ignore list (can copy and paste user name) and click "ok".

Oh the irony. :D

Great question Nachtfalter and thanks for the response Ronnie. I need to use this feature too. There are a few who don't seem to be adding any value to this place and I suspect are turning others off.

No doubt - I'll probably be the first one the OP adds to his list! :)

General keyboard vomit on the topic - each to their own, but the way I see it, it's a big world out there and I don't expect everyone to act or behave in the same manner (especially when it is something as harmless as message board barb slinging) . . . the banter driving people away from Pelican at large? How silly! Guess that's what's known as "1st world problems".

I get turned off by all the "keep it stock" and "oooooohhhh, the woes of rising values" talk - I guess a moderator should erase that **** from the forums?!?!?

I love your insight, this isn't about you at all. I only care about Porsche stuff, I would like to think most of us are just to busy for anything else. I enjoy jokes, even off color.....I do not enjoy drama.

Thank you for the tutorial! I'm on it.

^^^^

Whooops - I must have had a rare moment of guilty conscience - and thanks! :D

In the interest of forum balance let me just say that I don't.

Well, once or twice perhaps ...

Hell, I'd add you to my list, but you're too dumb to know the difference.

eNormousmaximus, I've got yer lovable insight right here!

Literal LOL.

Don't let Norm fool you; he luvs him some insight . . . long time!!!

That was easy nachtfalter!!! Bye.

That's racist!

Funny story (well, to me anyway) along those lines:

A long time ago, in a country far, far away there was a bar named the Calico Kitten, and in that bar worked a lovely young lass whose English was spoken in an accent quite similar to the one heard in one's mind's ear when reading your quoted post above.

I have no idea what this girl's given name was - I just started calling her "Mahoney", and my fellow Marines soon followed suit. Apparently the appellation took hold because more than a year later, after transferring to a different unit I was having a very high-level discussion with our Corpsman about some of more interesting Bangkok bars and mentioned the CK. As soon as he heard the name of the bar he commented on one of the working girls there - said everyone called her Mahoney. No one ever cared what these girls' names were but it seemed that, out of the scores that worked the CK, Mahoney was one everybody seemed to know.

Rather than the now cliche "Me so horny" phrase, this young lady would simply say "I'm horny" which, with her accent came out "I'm a hoanie". Well, it sounded like "I'm Mahoney" to me.

At 21 years old I never thought anything about it. Now, after recalling the story I actually feel kinda bad.:(

Ronnies not dumb, he does have a sense of humor that is better suited for private messages than a public forum. At least one hoping to maintain a higher level of respectability.

There are some, who no longer frequent these boards, people who added insight, people who if I'm interested in reading what they have to say do it on Ferrari chat and Rennlist now. That's sad because this web site use to be the best.

Now we have 3 way race for second and no clear leader.

Excellent, funny story, Norm, BUTT you omitted an important detail; how much of your HARD earned $$$$ did Mahoney collect from you over the course of your stay in those parts?!?!?!


MattR, envy and jealousy are not attractive personality traits, bro!!!





Eric was just slinging - he and I have horsed around in this manner for many years on here, but I can see that if someone is not familiar with our errrrrrrr "history", then the commentaries exchanged would seem harsher than what they really are.

I disagree about the "respectability" aspect, but do get your point.

The idea that someone would choose to vacate a message board due to the postings of another member is a concept lost on me altogether (not saying you are wrong about that, however); I can not image having my actions dictated in such a manner and definitely believe in the "live and let live" concept when it comes to communicating with others. There are plenty of pompous jackasses, and misinformation spreading fools that post on Pelican, but I would not even consider taking myself elsewhere simply because they are here. I just don't read their posts and/or find plenty of unintended laughs in them.

Ha! Nope, I'm somewhat famillar with turbo owner and respect his views - no throwing of errrr, ummmmm blows (ha ha ha!).

Besides, his sense of humor is hardly "clean", see - sneaky bastage right thar! :D

PARF is no holds barred and I still had posts removed

No holds barred unless you are not of the political bent of the moderators, that is. Or some whiner gets butthurt and complains. That's one of the reasons I don't go there. 1.) Boring as hell with all the emoting. 2.) Too many thin-skinned whiners complaining about posts to management.

To Ronnie's point - if folks leave because they don't know how to operate the software, well, that seems kind of dumb. Maybe they just use it as an excuse?

All this coming from a guy begging others to report me to the management? Gee looks like a lil glass house resident can toss stones but sure a heck doesn't want them thrown back.. WAA waa waa. Long time porsche guy here and seldom post but sick of the high school Gestapo ie., Eric, Ronnie and Matt the Munchin.

Sorry you didn't get the point. Maybe you should ask someone older than you to explain it?

No I get it you talk out both sides of your mouth . Here you are on one thread asking for a lifeline because you felt someone has picked on you and on another calling those out that do so as whiners.

I do love it when you make a bunch of contradictory posts then follow up with a bunch of personal insults. It just makes you... well look Stupid.
As someone has told you in the past the second you cannot make a legitimate coherent argument you are the first to start slinging the personal barbs. Irony is as soon as someone with a set of brass balls like me lobs a few back you cry and ask for help from your buddies. The epitome of a pussy right there.

Wrong again. Your LOLs never get old.

You forgot to include that you seldom post because all the time you spend amassing great wealth does not allow it.

Why not just be honest and own the fact that your recent activity on here was prompted by the fact that you were unable to take some simple ribbing about your 1st-world-crisis post complaining about people aggressively offering to buy your car?

That's a literal-LOL here.

All the hallmarks of an internet n00b and a youngster out of his depth.

^^^^ Look it is the alpha male wolf Ronnie... circling the Lion with one of his little pack *****es.... aka Eric. They nip at the heels and howl at the big beast but just cannot take him down. Keep nipping and biting there ladies maybe someday.

B

LOL, just LOL.

"That's a literal lol.. right there."

Anyone that has ever bothered to read Erica's stupid post would see well over 80 percent of them are similar nonsense to that . ugh.
If you had two brain cells to rub together... I have this degree and that one too... try to keep up.. same just old same old. then ... You are stupid ... son...

It's hysterical really how a high school student would claim to own an 85 Carrera and frequent this place.

Ronnies' been banned once already and Erica is probably next .
Good job girls keep
up the great work. As for life's lessons bring em.

Lol just lol,
wow look at that I can post just like Eric

Just another nonsensical, non- informative garbage post that streams from his hole on a daily basis.

Irony.

Lol just Lol

Well, you're a good parrot, for sure. And imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. For that, you have my most sincere thanks.

does this forum have the ability to "ignore" members? if so, how?
 

Tt

This parrot has pooped on your shoulder so many times it needs a new perch.

Come on, Man. Step up your game. If you are going to really slam him, get down with your bad self. The door is open. Ain't nobody here keeping score.

Gut him with some wit vs worn out, trite expressions.

Damn you, Bob. Just you wait...
