agreed OP.

the idea of a notification system for specific personal replies, seems a really good idea.

but otherwise, i don't know.

i like the forums, just as they are

When you delete a message within the time frame, your entire message box disappears and it's not just left there as a 'message deleted' box.

Seriously , I think this is a very bad idea.

I'm assuming you mean that each time someone quotes your post to reply to something you have said that you get a ping of some kind.

So if someone replies to me........ something like - ok - then I am pinged and come on for THAT ? no thanks.

Or someone just says ..... no ...... or yes or blue or sausages or yesterday or I might or it was on itv.......

Really - think it over ...

An option that when you block someone profile you also block their posts and comments on forums so you don’t have to see their shit.

I’d like the ability to opt out of seeing threads started by certain profiles.

It would enable me to see the threads that are more to my taste much easier without having to scroll through all the same crap as they posted yesterday…the day before… the week before… the month before… continue infinity.

Block should mean block. You block someone, and they disappear from your Fab experience. Poof. Gone. Can't see each other's profiles, can't contact each other, can't see each other's forum posts.

Also, sort out the fucking quote function. Collapsible quotes to do away with the bloody endless scrolling, and people's handles appearing in their quote so we know who said what.

Every other forum I have been on the last twenty years has these functions. It's *baffling* that Fab can't manage it.

"What would you do?

Seriously , I think this is a very bad idea.

I'm assuming you mean that each time someone quotes your post to reply to something you have said that you get a ping of some kind.

So if someone replies to me........ something like - ok - then I am pinged and come on for THAT ? no thanks.

Or someone just says ..... no ...... or yes or blue or sausages or yesterday or I might or it was on itv.......

Really - think it over ...

Have I got your original idea wrong ?

It wouldn't need to ping your phone.

A simple method would be to have a button similar to Messages that says how many replies you have. This could then take you to a page of threads that have replies in them. Then if each thread page could highlight responses better, that would be helpful.

Much easier then spinning through all the threads you have posted in, trying to see any responses.

When you go on a profile and it says that the person messaged you last say three months ago on it, being able to click on that to see the last message - or vice versa your last message to them. I sometimes see this claim that I’ve messaged or they have but haven’t the foggiest clue as to what the conversation was!

Nope. You'd see a little box saying something like "This poster has quoted someone you've blocked", and there's a button you can click to show you the quote if you want to see it.

Other forums have been successfully handling this "problem" for at least a decade, if not longer. Fab is the odd forum out here.

Yes. And I would feel like on a teenage forum. Use your words. Emojis are for setting the tone of them. Pictures would be great but with a limit and being able to opt in or out.

Yep. I didn't think they did, but had it confirmed to me.

Crazy that they do that as it means they are storing data about visits, that never want to be shown.

The ability to reply to any other comment that then creates a separate conversation within the thread rather than having to use the +quote option and search through a huge string to find replies, Also the ability to ‘like’ comments so that it’s easier to see the most popular answers.

Few folks have made the same point about an option to not see posts and/or threads posted by users you have blocked

I think that would go a long way towards making the forum a nicer place by slowly starving trolls of the oxygen of attention as more and more people are enabled to block and simply ignore them.

There have been some genuinely shocking opinions aired recently, and the ability to be blissfully ignorant of (and blind to) such nastiness would be very welcome.

That and a drool emoji
