Ignore entire forum

There is a particular forum on this site the contents of which I do not care about in any way, shape, or form. But this forum seems to come up in the hot topics ticker more often than any other, with thread titles which don't clue me into the fact that it is this same forum yet again.

Now don't get me wrong, the forum is valuable to the members who use it, and obviously is very popular on the site. But I'd love to be able to put it on ignore and just never see it mentioned external to itself ever again.

No vitriol or hatred, just a suggestion.

Thanks for considering,
Jim

So, basically, an opposite to the 'Favorite' forums list.

WoW (:D)... I was just thinking about something like that a week or so ago (after reading several other threads along the same line).

Works for me.

(Now, if the admins would simply add the name of a forum to the anchor as either a class or a new attribute, then you could easily hide/obscure the link with CSS... wouldn't take much.)

Not that it matters to me in any way other than to appease my curiosity, but is it the WoW forum? (Since I don't play, sometimes I go into that forum just to laugh, as I read each post and I don't have a single clue as to what anyone is talking about.)

How about the topic gets tagged with what forum it is coming from.

For example:

World Of Warcraft - Free Food next Sunday

Why are all the replies in here using WoW as an example!?

But seriously, your suggestion would be helpful too. I'd prefer to be able to ignore, but the addition of forum name would be nice as well.

Why don't you use Favorite Forums page? I do and, as a result, I have never had to hide any forum that I don't want to see. I just specify those ones that I'm care about

I use the fav forums page heavily. The forum list is not the concern which I had.

Sounds good to me! Who wants to see stuff like the following in the 'most read' list? These were all listed at the same time:

• 3.x Feral Druid - Bear Tanking Guide
• Is Gear Score now the new requirement to get pug invite?
• The (Insert Class) Tank and You For Beginners
• What is the spell hit cap for a lvl 80 full arcane spec mage

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice.

Then you would still be able to see that stuff. It wouldn't affect you one bit.
