Well, I just set my filter, and I'm not a sad sod. I'm a happy sod.

Thanks for bringing the filter function to my attention, I had forgotten about it. I wish I'd remembered it before so as to include it in my 'rant' on the Offensive Posts thread. I believe that is probably the best solution. Kudos to you.


It works. You can still see when the filtered user has posted, but you don't get distracted or offended, and in the off chance the user has actually said something nice, if enough other participants rate the post favorably, then the filter allows that post to be seen.

Don't worry about it. :-)

I think I'll set my filter too. It seems a shame, but it'll make the Cafe seem a nice place again.

I think so too, but at this particular juncture, Misfit's probably right about not indulging someone who's determined to behave like a troll, and the filter does the trick. C'est la vie!

No, it's not as bad as Chav. I think it is derived from the word sodomite.. do I need to explain more? ;-)

Ariane, you've turned on all the people who enjoyed your posts and supported you. I find this really sad. As far as I'm concerned any sympathy and respect I had for you is gone.


and now for that famous cliche...

Too bad there are so many people around who post a reply with the whole quoted post hanging around. Let's hope the Pirates way of quoting is introduced in the BOINC forums CVS quickly. ;)
