KILLFILE 2.0

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.

DEAD

(added readme / install instructions)

thanks, this works well!

how do I killfile someone with a forward-slash in their username? it screws up the coding, is there a code sequence I can encase that slash in?

I know you can killfile either display name (the one in parentheses or the one not) so maybe just killfile their other name?

yep, thanks

well that narrows down the possibilities

oops I don’t know what I did, but always happy to get killfiled again

Why does this thread keep getting bumped? I don’t see any messages.

not you jon

Geir/Hongro

you, on the other hand, need to post a lot fucking less

ok

i'll go back to my uber amazing life, later ILX

so handy to have Zing to do the bookmarks here for when you need to move past posters who (literally) shit up the entire board and make it unreadable b/c they confuse ILX with their therapist or a blog

fuck off and die.

god it is so nice to not have to read what you post, I swore Killfile off for a while but some of y'all have been seriously fucking unbearable lately

they confuse ILX with their therapist or a blog

This is a shitty thing to say, and you know it.

Truly execrable—

Is he doing advertising?

has anyone encountered any negative side effects from using Greasemonkey? I'm considering setting up my first (and hopefully only) killfile but I'm not sure if it's worth it

It's always worked great for me

it'll only run scripts that you install and then only on URLs you define within the script.

Any chance this works on eg duckduckgo on an android and while im asking the universe for a favour was there ever one configured to killfile posters in specific threads

^ this is probably a bit niche, in fact this is the first i've heard of it.

but if it supports user javascript then there's a chance it might work.

i'm looking at gihub now to see if i can find details. nope...

> in specific threads

this is probably do-able by modifying the list of urls at the top of the script

// @include        KILLFILE 2.0

but you'd probably need a different script for per-thread and per-site blocking, and the most restrictive would apply (ie you couldn't allow someone on a thread if you'd blocked them on the site, but that sounds like the opposite of what you want)

^ um, that unhelpfully converted the url for this thread that i used as an example into a link despite it being in code tags 8(

Thanks for looking, I'll check this out

Alternatively you can recruit 19 like-minded friends

Not a fan of campaigning id rather say it to em three or four times then bump killfile/fp moderation threads and after that if i just start swearing at em in all caps randomly twasnt out of nowhere, dyou get me

Beef encounter

Beef or slammin

Idiot mods cannot read simple instructions and i have been unfairly infracted for the second time on this hellsite (jjjjusten 2012 oh yes i remember)

Well aged beef

that's a one hot post every ten year average

this “block poster” thing on zing is tite, makes these fools’ posts look like they keep walking into walls or something

I'm ready to killfile my first user after being here for a couple decades now.

how does one go about that for the ilx website?

use greasemonkey on firefox or some other thing if you're using chrome...

and use this script, modifying the 'fules' line with the names you (don't) want
http://www.koogy.clara.co.uk/ilx/kilxor.user.js

well this is awkward ...

jk thank you

i'm embarrassed that i can't get this working. it's my second time in two months, and i just want to get it to work. i'm using chrome (like a fool who is always wrong), so i installed the tampermonkey extension. i installed the script from koogs' post just above, and on line 19, i added the username, hit save, hit refresh on everything, etc. it's just not working.

if i was killfiling myself, it would look like this:

var fules = [/karl malone/,/fule2/];

(note, please, fucking god, for the people who hate me, copy and paste this and use it)

i don't think there's anything else i need to do, right? it applies to all of ilx, not a specific thread.

i realize this is tampermonkey specific, but i open up the chrome Extensions menu for it, it looks like this when i'm on ilx:

enabled, but also "no script running". is that what's causing the problem?

here's the dashboard view:

sorry for this complete waste of your time

I think you need to enclose the name of each of the users in quotes. Otherwise I think JS will think those are variable references to other objects, you want strings here:

// instead of this below
var fules = [/karl malone/,/fule2/];
// do it like this
var fules = ["/karl malone/","/fule2/"];

KARLFILE 2.0

i haven't checked this, because it's 5am here, but my initial thoughts are that quotes are unnecessary (the example works without quotes) but capital letters are - Karl doesn't match karl.

additionally, that looks like an old version of the script, the current one (2018) is here (i think the link on boards page is old and this thread is tl;dr)

https://github.com/acdean/kilxor/blob/master/kilxor.user.js

the images suggest a different problem, perhaps (uri not listed?), but try this first

fpsa, koogs - so sorry to have missed your replies! i got it working, thanks! koogs, your suggestion to try the current version seems to have worked. i'm not sure how i ended up on the outdated one before, but with the new script it immediately started working.

thanks!
