I thought that you read these pages and evaluate the suggestions.
And yes, it is my suggestion and that function might be quite cool and useful.
As far as your suggestion, yes of course you always have that option for not reading. But I have failed to understand about what you mean by "you can´t even stand to look at their posts then you should probably not read them at all"? what is it you are suggesting exactly?
I think the problem really is that some indivuduals are not following the rules and posting just a link with afew words and calling it a news item or copying and pasting a paragraph from a website. As fasr as I am concerned it is a junk. Even they are not going through a little bit of effort to translate. In my view it is lowering the quality of the posts and cluttering the view. Since we can not complain all the time to you about this like kids and you as you mentioned, do not have enough time for monitoring and letting this happen, I thought this functionality could be a solution.
I did read/evaluate your suggestion and I thought I gave you a good suggestion to PM admin. He is the one that can add this feature and it is quicker to just PM him rather than waiting/hoping he will notice your post.
Also, it is obvious that you and other members have very different opinions. That doesn´t make their posts "junk." Lastly, I didn´t mention anything about you complaining like kids. I don´t mind helping and I thought that is what I was doing by making my suggestion.

You are one of the admins and advicing me to PM the admin after your evaluation? I think that is clearly something is not right in this conversation
You clearly distorting what I said and I think you are far away from being impartial.
What I said was clear : "some indivuduals are not following the rules and posting just a link with afew words and calling it a news item or copying and pasting a paragraph from a website. As far as I am concerned it is a junk.".
NOTHING WHAT SO EVER MENTIONED THAT I DISAGREED OR NOT.
As I said, you have made that ´I am calling their posts junk because I disagree´ up and in my view, you are stirring. And you clearly dont have time to check. You yourself mentioned that.
Others not agreeing with my suggestion? Well it seems like that. However I dont think they are able to explain why they are against it. Clearly the arguments they had, were NOT right and they all had their answers. Since we all know that ganging happens here so often, and being in a gang is nothing to do with the truth, I will stick to my own idea : That functionality can give more freedom of choice and more freedom of choice can not be wrong. That is my truth and that is not going to change.
I am sincereley not sure about how sincere you are when you say you are trying to help..
Anyway my suggestion is out there. Just a suggestion. That is all.

Not sure why you are so offended by my suggestion. I do not have the technical expertise nor the authority to make changes of that nature to this website. My powers (for lack of a better term) are very limited. I will let admin know of your suggestion...OK?
And BTW, I don´t like your suggestion...not because I am part of a gang but because I think you can simply choose not to read certain people´s posts. However, despite the fact that I don´t like your suggestion, I tried to help you get in touch with someone who can actually help you with it. I´m such a jerk, uh?
Also, just because I don´t like your idea doesn´t make it a bad idea. Perhaps admin will agree with you. I was simply stating my opinion.

Please stop mind reading. Of course I was not offended by your suggestions.. Why would I? do you think I dont know you are not a techi?
It is nothing to do with your suggestion. It was more like you stirring and telling the things I never said. I explained what they are in the other post. (and you call it helping.. Thank you very much. But please dont help in the future)
There is an ignore button for example and it works with the PMs only. With the same logic of yours that function would be unnecessary because you also have a choice there about not to read. But we know that the function of blocking users sending you PM is quite useful.
Anyway.
It was just a simple idea.
It was just a suggestion.
I dont think it is imortant.

Even if you do, you probably wouldn´t consider doing it.
It requires changes to database design and code changes in many places. I don´t think admin would consider doing it to make one guy happy here.

İ have to disagree with this idea because it is unnecessarily.This is site for learning turkish language and not facebook.Also if you put some users on ignore you may not see some useful informations by them.Just simple don´t read their posts and problem solved

I still dont understand..
It is YOUR choice for blocking or not blocking the people. This is not a facebook. Agreed but for many of us TC is also a social media. TC is a place where we like being. You think it is unnecessary but I am sure it will be necessary for some and it will be useful.
It is like talking about a legislation about disabled people. Normally it wont relate to us but making their life better for them does NOT take anything away from us.
It is the same. If there was function such as ´ignore user´, NOTHING is taken away from you. That is why I fail to understand the objections. It would just be more freedom of choice. AND "freedom of choice" IS A GOOD THING.
Not1: I am aware that some of people are devestated about the idea that I might block them. But I may not, if you are nice to me
Not2 :Favorite users might be a good idea too. where you see only the posts from your favorite users.

What bothers me in this idea is that if you blocked a user from your sight (which would be your free choice I agree) and saw only a part of the texts in the forum as a result many other posts would not make sense either. The texts in the forum form a textual corpus and you cannot separate a part of it (at least without seeing it) and not miss something else also. One stupid post can become a reason for a further discussion, sarcastic comments (possibly in another thread) or a luscious fight which you might not like to miss.
Not1: I am aware that some of people are devestated about the idea that I might block them.
You are joking but there is a seed ot truth here. Look at the translation requests. What is the greatest insult you can do to someone these days: delete her! It is a sneaky act, too easy to commit, too difficult to bear.

Here is a block button for you handsome. When you want to block someone come here and imagine that you are blocking him. I am sure this will give you some satistification and some peace of mind
