Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 12, 200816 yr This may or may not have cropped up before/elsewhere, but I was surprised to discover Ignored Users can add comments to user profiles as per normal. Perhaps this (and other things, such as Last Visitor information etc) can be looked at for a future version so Ignored Users are actually ignored, otherwise the door is left open for potential harassment of members. The more tools members have at their disposal (to deal with troublesome users themselves), the less babysitting board admins/moderators have to do :)
September 12, 200816 yr I made a topic some what like this about ignored users and ya I would not want them to comment or even be able to rate me.
September 12, 200816 yr But then don't they know they are 'ignored'? I don't know how the ignored feature concept is meant to work, but I don't think its meant to restrict the ignored user in anyway.
September 12, 200816 yr Only if they somehow knew that the user didn't have their comments "screened" first (which they couldn't). Anyhow that shouldn't matter, the point here is that if you are ignoring a person, you likely don't want their ramblings appearing on your profile! The "ignore" system should do just that, ignore the user entirely, treat all aspects of the board as if they are not even there.
