If I list a captain on my Ignore List does it mean I will not see his posts in the forums? Does it mean I will not see PM from the ignored captain?

You're being ignored. Oops, damn!

You won't see their posts unless someone quotes them. I'm assuming they can't PM you once placed on ignore.

Ducimus, thanks.
Hey, about TMO2.0 and surface attacks. At 2,000 + yds., I have been shot at by two merchants on pitch black nights. Playing TMO is like trying to tip toe through a room full of cocked mouse traps, which if you saw Mousehunt, did not turn out so well for the idiot brothers who painted themselves into a corner once they were set.
TMO2.0-the goal is simple: Return alive.

What you will see is a line like the ones for a deleted post, but it will say "You can't read XXX's message because he's on your ignore list", or something similar.
I don't know about PM's either. The only way to find out is to ask someone to PM you and then put him on your list and see what happens.

That could be interesting.
"Okay, you're on ignore. PM me."
"I said PM me."
"Hello?"

Go in deck awash and under 7kts. You can get in well under 1500 yards undetected in the dead of night. :03:

thank you.
The ignore function is essential. I would have stopped coming to SubSim if not for that List! I just wish it had more slots.

I'm goin' down, I just put you on my ignore list (first person ever to make it there), so try and PM me and see what happens.

I thought I posted a response, but I cannot find it anywhere. So here it is again.
I have responded with a private message.
BTW. You have ruined my holiday weekend by adding me to you ignore list.:wah: I am going to deactivate your Torpedo Angle Calculator mod in retaliation. :D Now I won't sink as many targets.:stare:
Opps. since I am on the Ignore List, you won't see this.

Not very realistic really. Did you forget to douse the smoking light? :cool:
I am a big fan of TMO, but I do not run it out of the box. I tweak it here and there to better suit my personal likes and dislikes.
I will admit though, that the machine gun damage from the freighters that once irritated me no end has not been such a problem of late. I installed Webster's better deck guns mod over TMO and stay back at least 1,100 yards from the merchants while surfaced.
I also tweaked the probabilities for air strikes in the Airstrike.cfg file - also dropped size of airfields by one for all air fields. This helped me a lot- they still have their x-ray vision... but now there are far fewer of them to contend with.
You can certainly adjust anything that you don't personally feel is realistic after all. Baby steps to adjust it to what suits you while still not losing the feeling that you need to use caution while playing in TMO. That's about half the fun after all. The other half is blowing stuff up!
Just flavor to taste... works for me.

Thanks Raven, your heads up was much appreciated. :salute:

I have responded with a private message.
Hmmm, well, I didn't get any notification that you tried to send me a PM and I take it that you didn't get any indication I hadn't received it, or you were being blocked.
But as you thought you posted a response, I'm beginning to suspect you only daydreamed sending me a PM :O:.

Okay, Nisgeis. Since you're here now I'm putting you on my ignore list at this moment. I will take you off again in 15 minutes. Send me a PM.

Message sent at 9.13. I sent the formula for pollution free energy, which in the act of sending was destroyed. Let's hope it gets through, or a copy gets bounced back.

I never use it. One day I might not like what a member posts.
Then the next day I do. I put someone on an ignore list and I lose.

Very good point. I never once used it until last week. Somebody annoyed me so badly that I felt I had too. It's been fun since then.

Still, I always wondered what would happen and this is a way to find out. I've never put anyone on my ignore list before.
OK Sailor Steve, second PM sent, this time I sent the formula for a medicine to cure all known diseases. Let's hope it gets through!

Okay, I see a message here that I can't read. I'll give it five more minutes and then 'unignore' you so I can find out what happened. No PM notices at all since the first one, which happened after I clicked 'Ignore' but forgot to finalize it, and was still trying to figure out what was happening when I got the message.

I just reenabled my Torpedo Angle Calculator Mod.:woot:Nisgeis, I DID SEND YOU A PM.

OK, SS, second message said:
Subject: You're just toying with me now
Body: All this ignore list business... you're running an experiment to see how long I will send PMs until I work out you haven't really put me on your ignore list?
By the way, what's I'm goin' down saying now? :haha:
IGD: It's a SPREAD angle calculator!

Oh, crap! I'm back, can read your messages fine, but no, no PM notification even after I 'Unignored' you.
I guess it's pretty efficient. :sunny:

I don't know. I can't read his handwriting. :doh:

07-01-10, 03:35 PM
But you got the PMs and they were in your in box, but the software stopped you from reading them? That's interesting, because I had no indication that they had been rejected/blocked.
Still, if you got my PMs, then that must mean that IGD didn't actually send me a PM, because I didn't get one. :88)

Actually, I sent two PMs. Here they are.

That's odd then, that Sailor Steve got the messages and I didn't. I have no PMs from you at all for the period when you were on my ignore list. I wonder if Sailor Steve has special VooDoo powers, because of his association with the mod bank.

Been on this board for a while and have gotten quite pissed at some people, but never saw the need for the ignore list. :nope:
If someone's post really bothers you, don't respond to it. No need for any ignore function. :yep:
There are several people on this site I ignore, and the best thing is that they don't even know I am ignoring them :haha:

I think the ignore function works for PM, based upon the two I sent to Nisgeis which he did not get apparently.
I have only used Ignore once. It is a member who lacks an appreciation for the many great members, some of whom I believe are gifted as well. (don't get all teary eyed on me. I may not be thinking of you even if you did invent the Easy Aob, Solution Solver, Mobo, TMO, RSRDC, etc!)

No. When I said I was reading your messages I meant the ones here in this thread. No PMs, except the first one when I accidentally still didn't have you 'ignored'.
I didn't get the other two PMs at all.

Ah right, my faith in IGD is restored. Interesting result.
