Please can we have the 'ignore thread' clicky back?

The ignore link has disappeared from the thread title in Active Conversations. I loved it - so fast, to click away threads you know from the title are not of interest.

Thanks for putting the Hide link when you are actually reading a thread.

Morning Mumsnetters,
There seemed to be a consensus that the ignore link on every thread in active conversation gave a negative impression - and we thought there was something in that tbh. You can still ignore a thread that really irritates by clicking on the hide this thread link inside the thread.

Sorry if you liked it the other way - it's hard to please all!

Ok well, just goes to show you really can't please everyone...

We'll look at making it a customisable option - how you choose to ignore threads that is - but it won't be for a little while now (as tech is moving on to projects new) and when we do revisit we will also look at bringing in bookmarks and more colour options for fonts etc.

But Soupy just to make it up to you, we'll see if we can persuade him to add the 200 option to active conversations asap.

Don't worry we won't be adding anything colourful to the default look, Kindersurprise, but would be nice to allow folks to view it in the colours they liked wouldn't it - so if you wanted pink font you could have it... but I doubt we'll get round to it for a wee while.

We are going to make it customisable - ie you can choose - but the default will be that ignore/hide doesn't show. However, you'll just have to be a bit patient if you don't mind because there's a backlog of things to be done and poor old Tech's only got ten fingers.

Hi, you can put this link back now if you like and are logged in. On the customise page, there's an extra option marked "Put "hide" link on Active Convs?" - if you set that back to yes it does what is says on the tin.

RB / AG, I've changed the buttons a bit to make it more obvious what's going on.

GunpowderDragonsAndSoup, that unfortunately didn't work on all versions of safari so some people on macs couldn't use it at all. We'll maybe but back for people on browsers that support it, but I'm not promising nothing no sir not at all.

Yes furball please don't worry - what we'd like to do is to customise the "viewing experience", so if you want to view the font as pink you can, but the default will stay as is. But that's a little way away anyway.
