Ignore a thread - can you?

It does now!

I know you can choose to ignore a complete forum, but is there a way to just ignore individual threads?

In order to ignore something, you must first recognise its presence. Ergo, if the thread does not appear on your screen in the first place, it is not possible to ignore it. Discuss...

Incidentally, 'original' Tippex used a brush, not a foam wedge - that came later...

Too deep for me

I'm showing my age I know but I only ever knew Tippex with a brush. That must make me the luddite's luddite.

Perhaps my memory is playing up,but i seem to remember Tippex in a sort of pen type thing?

Don't forget Liquid Paper

Sorry, skim reading a thread was never a good idea.

I did actually! And I remember microfeish - hi-tec days, those, late 70s, when I was a young office clerk.
And I thought there was only the one type of Tippex. Nurse!

You weren't paying attention in your futuristic office of the 70s. My mum had secretaries and typists and they had IBM Selectrics, with correction ribbons!

I'm interested in the semantics.... correction, corrective. I dunno, there's something about having a 'corrective fluid' that I think is somehow akin to having super powers. Just think of the wrongs you could right with a corrective fluid.

my first typewriter as a trainee journo back in the early/mid 80s was an electric Facit golfball - still the fastest keyboard I have ever used, to this day...

 

[T.M.H.N.E.T]

I didn't see this thread.

Sorry, no, that's not an option at the moment.

You can exclude whole forums from What's New - so if you find the majority of the threads you want to ignore are in one particular forum you could go down that route.
