Since this was implemented, I am no longer getting the summary list of posts in the Homepage. I haven't ignored everybody (or even anybody!)
What is going on?

captainquirk25 May 2014 2:26 a.m. PST

See here for discussion

Same here. Believe it is a bug with implementation?

Cheers,

Snap!

Me too.

it seems you need to ignore someone, to allow you to see the rest of the home page.

A well tested feature…

Chef Lackey Rich Fezian25 May 2014 4:30 a.m. PST

Seems like the obvious workaround would be to pick a random "sleeping" account (plenty to choose from) and Ignore them, at least until it's fixed.

McWong7325 May 2014 4:31 a.m. PST

I saw the site on implementation, no problems.

IGWARG1 Supporting Member of TMP Fezian25 May 2014 5:27 a.m. PST

I just "Ignored" someone for the first time ever and his topics are still spamming my front page.

Winston Smith25 May 2014 5:27 a.m. PST

Ignore the chap who goes by the Nom de Disgust beginning with "Phuk". See if things come back.

vtsaogames25 May 2014 6:01 a.m. PST

I see nothing. Sounds like a bug to me.

IGWARG1 Supporting Member of TMP Fezian25 May 2014 7:03 a.m. PST

Works for me now.

John the OFM25 May 2014 7:16 a.m. PST

It's not a bug. It's a feature.

Features tell, benefits sell. You're a salesman John, you know that to be true.

Sometimes you get what you ask for, and sometimes you get what you deserve… 8)=

John the OFM25 May 2014 8:03 a.m. PST

Well, I am not a very good salesman. grin

Ron W DuBray25 May 2014 8:07 a.m. PST

Maybe only people who have other people stifled are having a problem ??

Intrepide25 May 2014 8:57 a.m. PST

The front page works like a blood sacrifice now. Think of Agamemnon sacrificing his daughter so that gods will provide the winds so his fleet can sail. It is something like that, in that you -have- to ignore someone for the page to work. Go for it. Sacking Troy is worth it. Just be careful on your return to the loving arms of Clytemnstra.

darthfozzywig25 May 2014 9:05 a.m. PST

I haven't ignored anyone. Front page looks normal to me.

OTOH, I have been Ignored*, but I don't see how that would affect my display.


* probably for my highly controversial question asking about TSATF rules, or perhaps because I complimented someone's painting.

Probably.

steamingdave4725 May 2014 9:15 a.m. PST

Tried stifling/unstifling and ignoring/ unignoring random people (sorry if it was you!). The front page is still not showing the 400 posts it should do. Thanks Tango haters, your little vendetta has fouled things up for those of us who actually select which posts we want to read.
Bill, where are you? Time to put things back to when they worked.

steamingdave4725 May 2014 9:32 a.m. PST

Just "ignored" someone and front page now has summary of posts again. Now going to "unignore" and see what happens

steamingdave4725 May 2014 9:37 a.m. PST

Unignoring resulted in loss of Frontpage post list again! Had to ignore another random member to get the list back. This is *******g stupid.
For debugging purposes I am running Safari on Ios7 iPad and ios5 iPhone. Problem is on both. Not tried my Windows Vista machine yet.

Intrepide25 May 2014 9:41 a.m. PST

And now someone has ignored you, steamingdave47. Isn't this fun? It is like egging a house, in a sedentary, peevish, geriatric kind of way.

Korvessa25 May 2014 10:01 a.m. PST

Wasn't working at all for me, I "ignored"someone who totally deserved to be ignored, now it works fine

RInhoff25 May 2014 10:15 a.m. PST

there seems to be a lot of ignore-ance going around

MajorB25 May 2014 10:16 a.m. PST

Everything's working fine for me.

CBPIII25 May 2014 10:57 a.m. PST

Had this issue last night and today. Since I've ignored someone it's working for me now.

On a Toshiba Thrive tablet. Didn't try desktop to see if it had the issue too.

advocate25 May 2014 12:24 p.m. PST

Not ignored anyone; can't see any topics.

Desktop, Firefox.

steamingdave4725 May 2014 1:08 p.m. PST

Hi Intrepide-still well behind you on "ignores". Must try to be much more annoying!

Angel Barracks25 May 2014 2:35 p.m. PST

I have no messages / topics on the front page either.
I have ignored no one but have been ignored.

Not good…

kallman25 May 2014 4:22 p.m. PST

Interesting I just went to check my profile and the 37 stifles I had are gone and now replaced with 4 ignores. I think I may like this new feature even though I though it was silly and not needed. I do not mind being wrong however.

Well back to talking about toy soldiers. thumbs up

Intrepide25 May 2014 4:24 p.m. PST

Yeah, steamingdave – I really don't know why I picked up so many cooties. I didn't type the half of what I've thought!

CeruLucifus25 May 2014 6:17 p.m. PST

In Member Settings under Interests I selected everything and that brought the topics back to the front page. If I deselected anything, they went away again.

vtsaogames26 May 2014 9:17 a.m. PST

I have not stifled or ignored anyone. I can't see threads on the front page. And going to the front page is really SLOW. Bill, fix this. I'm a paying customer. I imagine advertisers aren't too thrilled either.

Louie N26 May 2014 9:20 a.m. PST

I did what CeruLucifus suggested and the front page returned to normal. I turned on all interest areas in my member settings.

I have not stifled or ignored anyone. Running IE on Windows 7.

I hope this helps

idontbelieveit26 May 2014 11:28 a.m. PST

A posting by someone I have ignored is still visible on my front page. Same experience with both firefox and chrome. FWIW, it's the top topic – not sure if that would make a difference or not.

jeffreyw326 May 2014 12:37 p.m. PST

Yep, turning on all interests brought it back. Rough couple days on the coding front…

StarfuryXL526 May 2014 9:15 p.m. PST

Another one with no problems with the front page and no one ignored. Just lucky, I guess.

Buckeye AKA Darryl27 May 2014 5:12 a.m. PST

I have ignored someone, it was working great, but this morning I can see their posts. I am using Chrome. I have not reset any interests.

bobspruster27 May 2014 7:45 p.m. PST

I'm having the same experience as Buckeye. Iggy worked fine at first, but then it didn't. Tried turning it off, then on again: no luck.

StarfuryXL527 May 2014 9:57 p.m. PST

According to the front page, the Ignore function is disabled right now, presumably so Bill can correct the unintended consequences.

D A THB29 May 2014 9:52 p.m. PST

Is it meant to working be now?
