KILLFILE 2.0

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)

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 i'm not sure how i ended up on the outdated one before, but with the new script it immediately started working.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!
