the ability to ignore posters

Profile -> Personal Message Options

Add whoever you want to ignore into the Ignorelist. Blocking them for messages also blocks their posts, according to the folks at SMF.

You had me on ignore once. It didn't last. You know it won't last this time either. I'm a cigarette and you're the smoker who just can't stop me.

I really don't like it all that much either. I just added it because he said it was there on the last board, although I never noticed it.

What does everyone else think of it? I can take it out if it's not needed.

Is there any way to increase the delay before getting the preview?  It seems like a nice feature to have if I'm actually trying to get a preview, but having a strobe effect of windows popping up and closing as I move my mouse across the page is annoying.

I added a two second delay, so those that just want to basically ignore it probably won't see it as they mouse around, and if you want to see it, then you deliberately have to pause on it with the mouse.

this is awesome, because it lets you know whether to click on a thread or not.

Works perfectly!

It makes the site hard to navigate on the Iphone. Instead of clicking through to a link, it' sfifty fifty whether it opens that window.

I've never liked it as a feature as it tends to expose spoilers sometimes.  Granted, if a thread title says a post contains spoilers, I shouldn't be hovering on it, but shit happens sometimes.

oh yeah, now i remember.  we did have it, but it was only inside an actual thread.  if you were in hybrid mode where you could see the list of posts in a thread, you could hover over that list.  and yes, it would ignore spoiler tags; it just showed you the first X number of characters - hidden or not.

I checked or out on my ipod yesterday and didn't seem to have any problems. I'm posting this from my new Samsung Focus with Windows Phone 7 and it seems to work fine so far.

he-man.org has a cool feature where it combines posts in the same thread from the same user when made successively (ie, i make a post in thread XYZ.  then later, i make another post, but since i was the last person to make a post in that thread, it appends/edits my new post into my previous post).

if I wanted it to be the same post I'd have added it myself.
