There are some people I want to ignore :).
 
Go to user cp - > edit ignore list in the left hand control panel under settings and options.
 
Or, go to the profile of the person you want to ignore and select user lists- > add to ignore list underneath their username and title.
 
Thanks...you get my name change request TW?

What service....
 
I am not a big fan of allowing profanity in user names. When you have young kids around the house and want to read the boards, it is not appropriate to have an F-bomb in big bold letters. I wish if we have the user on ignore that we could not see the name either.

Or I wish that you could ban profanity from user names so that this isn't an issue. If someone cusses in a thread that really doesn't bother me, because I can ignore users who do that consistently; and even if they do cuss it is in small regular font that doesn't grab your attention. But the words "FU@$ Your Couch" is in bold and double size font, it is very easy to grab a kids attention that is looking over your shoulder.

Have you tried the profanity censor?
 
I wanted to censor the word 'FU#$" in the poster "FU$% Your Couch". None of the censors do that apparently. I unchecked the appropriate boxes I believe, and all the profanity still shows up.

Ugh, sorry man. We are currently having some issues with the user censorship option. It seems to have stopped working all together.

When it is working correctly, it will censor the username of that user.

Does ignoring him work?
 
It just says "You are ignoring FU#$ Your Couch". But at least it isn't in bold.
