The ignore feature: why & how

[Mendalla]

Going a bit further afield, I can see a time coming soon when in real life we will have an ignore function -- we will have a technology (like google glass...) that will enable the user to overlay into their perceived reality the senses that they want...so just imagine the fun (chaos) of a business meeting where everyone there will have different settings -- one will be seeing the meeting in terms of a Sam Spade film noir, another will be seeing everyone as furries, another one will be seeing everyone as angels and everyone speaking Latin, and so forth

What happens if you put your boss on "Ignore"?

Many teens have the parental "ignore" mastered!

You haven't done that? Sorry, there were days.

 

[Delightful Life]

Boy, that'd be quite a use for spending years learning a Way of Liberation, just so you can ignore your boss properly :3

Tell me about it.

I report to the Director of Finance. If I ignore my boss, I may not get my expenses paid or something.

And I hear a rumour you're going to be able to ignore the boss for good soon.

My boss sorta prefers the ignore function. If I'm paying attention to him, I'm usually giving him s**t for something.

Hold it! You get to give the boss s**t? Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?

Not in my world.

Isn't that a stinking philosophy that the authority is always correct and no corruption is considered as cynical?

 

[BetteTheRed]

Not in my world.

Nor mine. Around 30 years, they start thinking "what the frig are we going to do without this awful woman"; they don't listen any more carefully, but they pretend to.

Thus Wu em'n get the underhand ... a shadow of discretion?

Leads to a lot of amassing in the shadows ... globules appear as gamete ...

Not sure if this has been noted yet on this thread or not, but it should be.

It seems that the Council has set things up so that it is impossible for WC2 users to put Administrators and Moderators on "ignore." Either that, or else the software just won't permit it.

 

[Pinga]

Software won't permit it.

As @Pinga said, it is coded into the software. Having mods would be kind of useless if users could avoid seeing warnings and rulings by hitting ignore on all the mods. Every board I am on works this way.

We are all free to be out-of-here ... are we not? Some say I am not how I manifest! Thus the divine difference ... in th' aughts ...
