    Ignore List

    I genuinely wasn't aware that you could block/ignore people, but I'm glad I am now.  Thank you. 
    On the old forum I had 10 or so of the more, how shall I put it, 'wearisome' posters on my ignore list.  Some, as is often the case in the circs, stopped posting anyway, but some carried on.  My old list vanished with the upgrade to the new forum but so far, apart from one or two, I haven't rebuilt it.

    One reason I haven't is that the new forum simply omits posts made by people you ignore - so you are unaware they exist, except that you see replies, which can make a thread confusing. The old forum kept the posts but blanked them out, with an explanatory note that it was blank because the poster was on the ignore list. Which made more sense than the new forum omitting them entirely! 

    AND
    the old system gave you an option to view the blanked post by clicking a link - which was extremely useful, meaning you could use ignore system as a tool to flag up posts that would, probably, annoy you but if you wanted to check you could still view them.

    The new forum appears not to be able to do this. Such is progress.

    For how long have you had your 2nd lot of rewards? It only lasts for 12 months. My 12 months are now up.

    Although the bonus reward is usually credited around the mid teens (13th to 17th) of the month the latest date it's been credited to mine was the 23rd in March so all not lost yet.

    bonus turned up this morning, (the 22nd June), so not quite a record late payment.
