KILLFILE 2.0

i have just gotten it working with tampermonkey

install tampermonkey, then go here: https://github.com/acdean/kilxor/blob/master/kilxor.user.js

click on "Raw" and it might, if you're lucky, open in a tampermonkey user script editor, change the 'fules' on line 17, ignore the warnings and errors, file, save, profit.

^ that was macos chrome, v70.0.3538.102

and i can still see my blobs.

we all can mate, put them away

Finally got him zapped to fuck. Thanks.

brilliant koogs, you were right that it now works with tampermonkey

Weird that this thread is updated without a new post!1!

;)

currently killfiling w/ tampermonkey and cannot recommend it highly enough :)

a modest proposal: everyone should killfile their 5 least fave posters. it would make ILX at least 50% more readable

would reduce that to two or three but it would likely save a lot of out of control arguments

5? I'm up to 15!

I hear a lot of talk about “billie eilish” and not enough talk about “killie filish”

Weird this thread just got bumped but I don’t see anything

lol

Never killfiled anyone, I want my ILX to be a steak tartare.

Who said that?

I enjoy a nice fp too much to ever killfile anyone

There were two posters who genuinely annoyed me when I first came on here, now they are two of my favourites (though one has since left)

Is there a way to killfile a thread instead of a poster?

I wish

Who said that?

?

Oh, it's Euler! Sorry, I didn't have my readers on.

I must confess that I've never understood the purpose of killfiling. I can't be the only one who possesses the ability to not read a thing I don't care to read.

Unless I am the only one...whoa.

some of us can't resist the impulse to read bullshit and get mad at it!

Jelly, OL.

some of us have reached a point where seeing certain people's dns and accompanying bullshit over the course of a decade plus have conditioned us to see red when those posters say or do anything, so better for our health and the health of the board that we leave it be.

also, some posters (and oddly, often the same ones that offend!) tend to clog up whole threads (or boards!) with their nonstop blithering, so it's nice to have the option to enjoy the thread/board minus their influence.

though more power to you if you have a killfile... in your MIND

Finally crossed over from Killfile of the Mind to Killfile of the Greasemonkey, and the absolute best thing about it, is if you have even minimal programming skills, you can script it so that your poxy FULES are actually repeating very amusing jokes instead of their usual blethering, which has increased my enjoyment of ILX substantially.

Highly reccommend. *PLEASE* killfile me.

> Is there a way to killfile a thread instead of a poster?

wouldn't be too hard (in fact i vaguely remember doing this already). threads can appear in many places though, blocking them everywhere might be a pain. and you'd have to enter the threadid somewhere, which is a bit oblique.

IIRC the old script was easily edited to do this because I did it

of course, I then stopped using it and then switch computers about a billion times so I don't remember what I did

can be edited to replace the poster's post with ai-generated text seeded by the thread title

how do you killfile yourself

Write a post designed to reap 50 FPs.

You can killfile yourself - that's how I test it.

don't understand the why of killfile

I can understand being annoyed by others’ posts, but pretty much everyone here is posting in earnest and it’s just a message board

Yep, pretty much everybody!

Pretty much. Killfile is for the 1%.

if you want to make a name for yourself as a poster, killfile EVERYONE. then just go into threads with appealing that interest you and speak your mind.

no context. no discursive triangulation. just posting. pure posting.

lol

Pretty much. Killfile is for the 1%.

sounds pretty "let them eat posts" out of context

this message board is dying and we should welcome all new voices

I gave up on killfile and do my best to practice it mentally these days

wait I still have "Nerdstrom Poindexter" killfiled I believe

new snatk script - site new answers thread killer

unfortunately, threads are numbered per-board, so you need to supply the boardid as well as the threadid. i also had to take care of the 'updated' threads, which have an extra css attribute. but generally the structure of a thread link is easier than a post so code is shorter.

it *might* work in places other than Site New Answers. let's see...

yes. also works in 'new answers' (ie board view) - go to HTML Playground to test.

thanks, this works well!
