Another poster I have on ignore who continues to reply to my posts. A block feature would immediately fix him and his ilk. If someone follows me in real life, after I'd asked them to stay away, they'd get a punch on the nose. Here, these trolls think it's their God-given right to stalk others as it's a public forum. Stay away how? It's not like you leave the topic, you continue to post and everyone can see what you post. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like someone's posts ignore them. Jeez. No, I have never put someone on ignore and he or you wont be the first. To be honest I ignore a lot of posts as they are drivel with a capital D but in some posters case's their whinges are so prolific you have a duty to point it out even though it is painful.... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I consider derogatory statements and demeaning language purely to detract or deflect even the possibility of valid significance of another person's input as abuse whether or not any such contains curses in attempt to suppress in defense of intransigent opinion.

Some of the sub-forums on ASEAN Now are well-run, others are a free for all where anything goes. If you want this forum to be a place where people goof around and where topics with inane discussions are allowed, then keep doing what you're doing. If you want something a bit more serious, I really think the moderators need to be a bit more firm. Too many clowns dominate the forum these days, lowering the tone and ruining many threads. are we forgetting that this site is either for sale or sold?

I suspect it has not yet been sold otherwise the hard core of approx 12 Troll/Bot/paid obnoxious posters would not still be spouting forth their constant click bait drivel! Please note I have only come back to post on the forum because I wished to as a question on a specific banking matter! If/when I get an answer I will log off until such time as I feel I MUST log back on for personal reasons!
