New forum - questions and suggestions

[DinoToyForum]

Im Not sure if this is the right place for this, but There is Three Geoworld Topics, Is it going to stay Like that Or can someone Merge Them?

Please can you link to the three topics? If they are simple duplicates then I can merge them...

I only found 2 in the toy lines section. One was about future releases the other the current line ?

also, i posted the same message in all three of them about my Troodon, So you cand delete two of them

[DinoToyForum]

Hmm, One is dedicated to Jurassic hunters, so that stands alone. However, we probably could merge the other two of them, which seem more general. What do people think?

[Takama]

Sure, Whatever works in you eyes (since your the Admin)

Is it possible to use spoiler tags on this forum? Sometimes, when I post a lot of photos, I feel sort of guilty because people might not want to scroll through all my stuff to get to another topic. If people want to see the photos, they just have to click the tag and the photos can be seen.

Is it possible to ignore threads? I know you can ignore certain boards, but I only want to ignore one thread.
Thanks

[sauroid]

You mean like blocking members?

[sauroid]

yes, but i dont want that member to see any of my posts either.

[Simon]

Hmmm ... I am not all that savvy, but I think the best you can do is block yourself from seeing his posts ... I don't think you can make yourself "invisible" to him .... also, if someone quotes one of his posts, you'll be able to see that, of course ...

[sauroid]

LOL i guess im helpless at obliterating that person from the DTF oh well i'll just grin and bear it. thanks all.

p.s. he's not very quotable

[postsaurischian]

I've been trying to disperse that ineffable 'music' thread since the forum started , but I'm afraid there's no way.

[tyrantqueen]

Thanks guys. I think I figured something out- I just blocked the entire "Games" board since I don't follow any threads on there anymore anyway

[DinoToyForum]

Yes, you can block boards, but not specific threads.

To block/ignore members go to "Buddies/Ignore List" in your profile, and you can set things there. I don't think there's a way to stop certain members seeing your posts.

Spoiler tags is something I've considered. It is possible, but would require a little work. Maybe if I find the time..

Sorry for leaving you hanging on these replies!

[tyrantqueen]

Oh man, I hate to beat a dead horse again, but I really do wish there was a way to block specific threads The reason I don't want to block a specific board is because I usually follow and enjoy that particular board, it's just a few threads have been made that are really annoying me.

I also tried blocking the members who were making the posts (which I didn't want to do but I had no choice) but the posts still showed up via the "recent" tab (which is my preferred method of viewing the most recent posts made in the forum)

Do you think it's something that could be looked into in the future, or is it completely out of the question?

[DinoToyForum]

Maybe there is a way, but it will involve installing a modification. Does this sound like what you're looking for?

If so, I can give it a try when I find the time.

Sounds good. Thank you for taking the time to respond to this, even with your busy job and all.

[Ikessauro]

I've been getting this lately.

[tyrantqueen]

Very odd. I've never gotten anything like that. What browser are you using?
