Topic: Ideas for the site

Can the ignore list auto add both parties if one party adds them? I have a user freaking out because I don’t respond to him even though he has been on my ignore list since 2017. He is derailing a thread about it in a somewhat harassing fashion and is now saying I said things that I didn’t. I don’t have time for this drama. Plus the dude has been following me around for a bit replying to me even though it’s obvious I had him on ignore. I know about this because I’ve been on the site while logged out a few times and other users are commenting about it. It’s creepy.

Edit: now he is comparing me to some bully in his past. I’m officially uncomfortable.

Something tells me he just wanted to have his last word and won't continue after that post. If he does though, I'll make sure to tell him to stop.

The dual ignore function sounds like it could be an interesting thing. Perhaps as an extra option when ignoring someone.

"[✔] Add me to the user's ignore list"

(perhaps with a special flag so the user can't just un-ignore you if they happen to check their list)

@Eel ok, I’ll leave it alone then. I can deal with the libel because anyone could have read my post before I took it down as I said I would so the thread wouldn’t be hijacked (yet it still got hijacked…sigh). And I have screenshots.

But the dual ignore I think works over all because you know instantly that your communication with that person has ended and you have the option to do the same. You can take them off if you don’t like it but I think it solves a few onesided convo problems.

Edit: @Eel thank you for the assist. I’m still super uncomfortable/creeped out about the whole thing and what led up to it but hopefully I will be left alone going forward.

I Think it should say your on ignore, Might make it easy'er to see that your on ignore, or did you guys say that already LOL.

I will drop this topic as well but it did come off as creepy in my opinion.

A matter of hours out from a Nintendo Direct, if a Nintendo game 'leaks', would it hurt to use a headline such as "New Nintendo game leaks..." rather than spoiling what is quite possibly an impending reveal in the Direct?

I don't know if it's just me, but when I click on a thread from the Nintendo Life home page, it sometimes goes to the very bottom (where it shows the popular articles and NL's social media links) and I have to scroll up just to read others' posts. That annoys me...has that happened to anyone else?

Any way to filter out article topics and save that as your site preference? I would turn off my ad blocker if I could skip the rumor articles.

@Snatcher you've got a valid point... maybe just ask a few artists permission to use their work in general?

I’m just gonna drop this here as Octy said it’s Ant’s problem.

@jump I can find it just fine. So maybe the issue has already been resolved?

Not sure if this really falls under this category, but could someone help me figure out how to censor spoilers when I make a forum post?

@octokid Like this. (spoiler) blah blah blah (/spoiler)

Just change the parentheses ( ) to brackets [ ]
blah blah blah Mario smells. See? It's easy!

You can also hit the Quote button to see the code the user used, if you ever forget, or are curious to see how they did something else. The code they used will be revealed in the quote. Then you can delete/discard it.

On the game collections page we need a "Played" option, I know thats what owned is for but It might have never had it, just played it, or maybe it platform counter part.

On the game overview can you add file size and format: download only/physical?

Hey, here's one. I would like it if you could click something to make articles disappear on the main page. Sometimes you don't like the pictures if you know what I mean so that would be nice if that could happen please.

@arnoldfranklin
Yeah, me too.
I want to read certain articles and don't even want to see any articles with offending pictures for me.

I would classify this as "self moderation". No site would ever implement such a thing.

@Anti-Matter If you are offended by pictures you have bigger problems than what articles are posted on NL

@Zuljaras
A people like me can get offended by certain pictures as I don't even want to see them as it might trigger negative reaction from me.
An option to turn off some articles by click the button on it is a welcome feature in this website.

@Anti-Matter I understand that but that is a very small fraction of the sites users. If more people "demand" such feature it would be considered. But to lower your ad exposure is a no-go.

Also one more important thing is that this will take time to program so it is not wise to waste so much time in a feature that is demanded by the smallest minority

A such feature would be nice but not a game changer.

I do not know one site that does that for it own articles! (no other user created content)

Basically this is "the ignore button" for NL articles

If we're not supposed to swear in comments why should we not be able to make some articles disappear. Besides, how often do you click on all of the articles? I don't think I usually do if at all (Probably not at all). But, oh well then.
