Is there any way to have an ignore feature like other forums do so that you can set a flag to ignore posts by certain users?

[charles k. norman]

Wonderful idea Robert to match your quote of e=mc2. A personal censor button! Perhaps you could help develop it with your skills. I appreciate you may want to give this one a miss as you are pressed for time and want to cut down on your reading. However, can you post the links for the forums that do this and perhaps the management can see how to implement it.

SEPARATE POINT: IMPROVED ACCESSIBILITY

At times I do some work for people who have disabilities and wonder HP if you could introduce a text to voice reader for messages in the forum for those with reading difficulties and impaired eyesight to improve accessibility to the forum for such good people. And yes also to include voice to text for message preparation. HP you do a lot of good work and are to be commended for the charitable initiatives you get involved in in so many sectors. Looking into this and implementing it would be a significant step forward.

OK - I don't know about others, but this whole debate is becoming quite tiresome. I would suggest that certain posters:

1) Not be so **** sensitive
and
2) If they need to take a certain topic dealing with forum operations to such minute detail they use this link:

http://us-support.external.hp.com/usage/bin/doc.pl/screen=usageQuestion/distrib_redir=0+1093541876|*

That's what it's there for, thank you.

Rgds,

Can these two threads be moved to more appropriate places:

One has no posts, the other seems resolved, but neither are Linux-based questions.

[Cheryl Griffin]

I cannot move the 1st thread because it seems to belong in BSF vs ITRC, but I did suggest he post his question elsewhere.

[JohnWRuffo]

Think this thread should be moved into the workstation forum:

Dan,

Something wrong with this thread:

http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=684771

I tried to post to it 5 times. Every time it quickly gave the acknowledgement but never showed the thread. One time it came back "thread closed" when attempting to post yet it does *not* have the closed symbol.
Finally the reply count is incorrect - states 6, but I only see 4.

Having DB problems today, are we?

Rgds,
Jeff

[Jeff Schussele]

Now it's showing 7 replies, but I only see 3.
Hope this isn't a sign of things to come.....

Later,
Jeff

Jeff, thanks...I noticed the last reply also appears to be truncated. You may be right, and I'll work this through support.

Thanks,
Dan
