"Ignore" feature
« on: April 27, 2006, 12:39:17 PM »
Is there an "Ignore" feature on this site?


If so, where is it located / how is it activated?


If not, can the "Ignore" feature be added?

Go to your profile, hit the Buddy List tab, then the Ignore List tab, type the offending user's name in the lower box, then hit Add Member next to it. :wink:

wWOW really mmmm i would also say that many of them are  as well.
 if we drop stainless steel then  surly  modern high straight steal should also be wrong  as  original barrels   were iron .
 Maybe it’s the coil spring  used to fire TC locks .
 Well that coil springs been around  a long ,long time  and used to fire different ignitions  .   In the early 1700 coil springs were used to fire  inline ignition flintlocks  that I know of for sure. These are not to be confused with modern inline  muzzle loading weapons in any way  .

 Depending on  your view  there are many different levels of traditional .
For some  any side lock fit’s the bill. For others  the entire weapon must be in a close resemblance of a common or what that person perceives as common weapon .
 Still others feel only an exact copy   right down to  the  shape of the flash pan works  and still others exclude all percussion systems

 For me  any weapon that carries  a ignition system  true to form  IE side lock , slap lock , inline flintlock ignitions , Mule ear  ……is a traditional weapon .

  The ignore  option is a sad deal , even sadder when a person needs to use it

True, but an unfortunate necessity...trolls just try to provoke controversy and offer nothing of a positive value...and you can track the same ones from site to site...they get banned from one, reappear under another ID but in just a couple posts you immediately recognize who they are...the ignore feature is tailor made for them.

sorry captchee, stainless steel is too much for me when the conversation is Traditional arms,ya gotta draw a line some where.
 You'll find no stainless steel nor plastic in my camp.
 Besides this topic is about the "ignore" list.  It is sad. some people use it, then not, then use it, then not, then use it,then?,,,,gadds
