    Default In praise of the "Ignore" option.

    I must tell all and sundry of this wonderful feature of this forum.

    Say you have a user who's all over the threads,spewing bile and vomiting poison on everyone,especially women.Call him...I dunno...Nestranq (purely ficticious name here.I wouldn't want to hurt anyone.Not again...)

    Anyway,his/her absolute lack of decency and his/her bullying and verbal intimidation,driving good people from these forums,make you sick?Do as I already did!Twice!

    The "Ignore" option makes the whole Evony experience a more civilized,pleasant activity.As this is the first online forum I participate in,I don't know if it is found anywhere else.But I sure am glad to have it here.

    I wonder if the community feels the same way.Any thoughts and comments folks?

    I haven't seen "Nestranq" make any comments like that, but then again I stay away from certain threads (i.e, "for Queen" and "so-and-so's corner) because I have no interest in them.

    However, the ignore function does wonders on Kempion.

    I don't get it.

    I saw Nesterus' response, and it was hardly uncivilized or unpleasant - it was actually kind of funny.

    To each his own I guess.

    Okay I do get it now - you're a forum noob. I don't mean that in a bad way, everyone is new to forums at some point in their lives.

    I used to play an MMO where the forums were just absolutely ruthless. You wouldn't believe the kind of stuff that would go on over there. Evony's boards look like a tea party by comparison. I mean, I get infractions here for swearing, in the other game, the only way you could get an infraction was if you made a death threat (I didn't do that). In any case, if you've never been on a forum before it may take you a while to get acclimated because forums can take things in unintended directions.

    In any case, I still say Nesterus is harmless. Maybe you're making too much out of nothing.

    He's been infracted so many times his posts are a lot tamer. He's a tame troll now.

    I had to do something if I wanted to stay here and spread my vitriol for a while longer
