How do I ignore a poster when...

the poster limits who can view their profile? I can not view their profile so I can not use that page to put the poster on ignore, now how do I do it?

Just don't open their threads?
Well that helps, a little. But I was hoping there's a way I can still make 'em disappear completely. vamoosh! voila! gone! no more baiting and reporting! the old fashioned way; using the function in the forum.

I am hearing all sorts of things going on in PJ - inconsistent and bias moderating is one and will lose us posters if it doesn't stop - we cannot afford to lose more posters due to this same 'sin' - first from one side and then the other.

I don't know what happened but tempers flare and mods should know us all well enough not to over react because their fav posters report A B or C -

I'd be hypocrite to agree, after I voted to keep the 3 strike system. I don't like it either, but I didn't have a better method to proffer. No matter what discipline we use, it will get abused, especially by fraysters, there's a long standing history of abuse there, no way it doesn't keep happening. At least it is only a 2 day ban. A bunch of us were put on permanent IP ban when Adam cleared house during an early babysit ... remember that? Unless someone still standing pitched for you and the editor gave you a reprieve... nothing left to discuss. Someone noticed I was gone and Schadenfreude, of all people, vouched for me. Then as soon as my voice reappeared, I jumped right in the thread and got justoffal reinstated. Adam loved me, but he didn't recognize all my nics and I picked a bad time to crack a joke, I didn't know there was a RULE against impersonating an editor. How goofy is that? I had no Slate avatar next to my nic, I thought it was pretty obvious that FrayEditor007 was a joke.

The drop down under your name will show this, as Craig mentioned... the options appear. Click on the option you want to view and change.

Nah - we are all allowed to change our minds and at that time Max was being a shit - he wound us both up but I disappeared for Christmas ( taking his passing shots with me I add horrid man) - but I was meaning that moderating is not even - it is inconsistent.

What I've done is find one of the persons posts, under their avatar click on their name....the window pops up showing their info and you get the options of "Profile Page", "Start Conversation", "Follow" & "Ignore". Just click on Ignore....that should do it.

moderators need to learn the difference between innocuous banter in regular discussion and the real stuff: stalking, baiting, harassment, abuse...

that's what i always did, but if the poster limits who can view their profile page, you don't get to go there. Craig and Addy directed me to the way I can add them to my ignore by clicking on my own name on the menu bar.

Why can't we put Mods on ignore, but give them an app that would let them get through to us on a thread when they're doing their Moddy thing?
