Can't access ignored users page


Recommended Posts

From the Forum, click your profile,  go to account settings in the dropdown menu, look for other settings in the right hand side of the window you're looking at, a working link is at the bottom of that list.

 

 

On a personal note, you cannot put yourself onto ignore :p

Also, this has been reported several times. I wonder why it hasn't been fixed. :huh:

Thanks. :)

where are you accessing the Ignored Users page from? the link in the user dropdown seems to work fine for me.

p.s. If you're using the beta fat navigation bar then it's possible links could be broken (aka pointing to older urls) on it as it hasn't been updated in a few upgrades (i'm guessing the theme was abandoned for other/better ideas)

It was fixed in the user menu last time it was reported. If there's another link lurking somewhere, let us know where, and we'll get it sorted.

This has never been fixed for me. Still shows the error OP has reported. I am using the dark theme, clicking my username in the upper right hand corner and using the menu to select Ignored Users displays the error just like OP. It has been this way for many months. It is a darkside theme issue because using the normal light theme, the menu link works.

I can confirm this. I changed to the default theme and can access the ignored users page.

That should be fixed now

Nope, still broken.

Just checked, it's definitely fixed, unless you're clicking on a different link to the one I fixed. Where on the site are you finding the link that's taking you to the error page rather than the ignore user page?

i was messing around to verify and i noticed the Mobile Layout for Darkside still has the wrong link in the menu. I'm betting this is the one he's seeing

You are correct. I'm still having this problem using the latest version of Chrome on Android Marshmallow.

At the time of posting my last response, the link wasn't working.

It is now working.

was likely cacheing the old link.

 

here's how to clear the cache on android if you ever need it in the future and weren't aware :)

    • Microsoft bans LibreOffice developer's account without warning, rejects appeal by David Uzondu Recently, we reported on LibreOffice, accusing Microsoft of intentionally using complex file formats as a tactic to lock in users to Microsoft Office, hindering open source alternatives like LibreOffice. Now, Microsoft has banned LibreOffice developer, Mike Kaganski, from using its services, citing an "activity that violates [its] Services Agreement". According to Mike, this happened last Monday when he tried to send a technical email to the LibreOffice dev mailing list, which is a normal part of his routine, but Thunderbird returned an error saying the message couldn't be sent. His account was blocked upon retry, and he found himself completely logged out of his Microsoft account. Kaganski guessed that his mail and account were getting flagged by a bot or something, since he was quite sure that nothing in the mail violated Microsoft's terms of service. So he decided to file an appeal, a process which later made him call Redmond "miserably incompetent in IT." The automated system asked for his phone number, which he provided, only to be greeted by a "Try another method" error message. The problem was that there was no other method offered. He then decided to reach out to Microsoft support directly. After some digging, he found a link to contact the team, and there it was, a button asking him to "Sign in to Contact support". Now, you might go, "Hold up, how is he supposed to sign in to contact support when his problem is that he can't sign in in the first place?" As Kaganski himself put it: He eventually got to use his wife's account to file an appeal and finally received a message from support. The instructions inside asked him to go to the sign-in page and, when told the account is blocked, provide a phone number. However, Microsoft ignored his detailed report of the failing process, marked his ticket as resolved without any real action, and simply closed it. He is yet to recover his account. As for the email he was trying to send, he was later able to use Gmail, and it went through with no problem. If you are interested, you can read the full email for yourself and see if it violates Microsoft's services agreement. Mike's not the only person who's had their account locked recently, with seemingly no way to recover it. On the 17th of last month, Reddit user u/deus03690 shared how Microsoft locked their account, which, among other things, contained 30 years of "irreplaceable photos and work" on OneDrive. Their appeal, like Mike's, has been fruitless so far. The user said Microsoft reached out 10 days later, asking them to fill out a recovery form and promising to help them "every step of the way," but they haven't heard from the company since.
    • It's like Microsoft hasn't learned anything from Internet Explorer fiascos. Or they weren't slapped hard enough financially for it...
    • Yes they're payroll taxes with some of it linked to share-based compensation for employees. So when the stock price was rising in q2 these charges also increased.
    • Stopped using paypal as much as I possibly can after the whole Honey mess. Their entire business model essentially is to be a trustworthy middleman and they lost all of it by deciding to do shady things without telling the users. Well done Paypal.
    • I need someone to explain to me what "passkey" is and what happens if my device crashes and is not recoverable.
