I am afraid some people might think I am "bragging" about it. I have been told that before, and I don't want that to repeat :(

Honestly I don't particularly understand that sentiment, but better wanna avoid it - could be some culture related thing.

IͶΔ

@AwalGarg Then don't give a number.

Just say that "I'm ignoring some people and there's no pagination for me to get to the second page of that list".

Awal Garg

It still feels a bit edgy -- if only there was a way to post anonymously!

anyways I can live with this, I don't care much. But still thought if anyone here would know about it...

IͶΔ

Well, I think Unihedron is the only person here who possibly ignores a lot of people.

Shadow Wizard

@Awal want me to do it? I have no problem bragging about how many users I ignore. ;)

rene

Most of us don't have difficulties with that many users.

Unless they do wizardry

Shadow Wizard

2:05 PM

I'm sure the team never expected anyone to ignore so many, but it's still a valid bug.

Awal Garg

@ShadowWizard sure, that'd be great!

Shadow Wizard

Looking forward for the shiny points

lol

Awal Garg

@ShadowWizard would you mind pinging me here with a link to the post after you are done posting it?

Shadow Wizard

2:08 PM

@AwalGarg sure, will do

rene

The ignored users are send in the prefs page content, so it is not a separate ajax call

I guess Balpha has to fix that server side.

Shadow Wizard

@AwalGarg houston, we have a problem. Can't reproduce the bug, I see 50 just fine.

@Awal so I fear it's something on your side, or maybe only on SO

IͶΔ

@ShadowWizard I'm not ignored?

YASSSS

Shadow Wizard

lol

@Awal you sure you have more than 38? Maybe you unignored someone and forgot.

Awal Garg

@ShadowWizard sorry I meant (16*3 + 2) = 50. Indeed, nothing more than 50. I just ignored some more users and it is still at 50 only.

Awal Garg

@ShadowWizard can you try ignoring some more users and see if it updates?

Shadow Wizard

hmm...

Awal Garg

@ShadowWizard I am trying to unignore a user right now and can't find them in the list. So then I noticed that many other users are missing from there as well.

that's how I spotted the issue :P

rene

Man, I'm busted: meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/317070/…

@ShadowWizard my bet is on a select top 50 userid from ingnoredusers

IͶΔ

Yes, please check me out. Who knows what else I screwed up. — rene 11 mins ago

@Awal by the way, you can unignore a user from his/her chat profile page, there will be "don't ignore this user" button. But for that you'll have to know who you ignore, of course.

Awal Garg

@ShadowWizard ahh ok, good to know. were you able to reproduce though?

Shadow Wizard

@AwalGarg yes, going to write the bug report

Awal Garg

ok great, glad I am not the only one

Q: Ignore List showing only 50 users, no way to see more

So, I am ignoring more than 50 users in chat. However, only (the first?) 50 are displayed in the prefs tab of my chat profile: For example, I know for sure I ignore this user as well: Yet as you can see, this user is not showing in the list. Can we see all the users we ignore, perh...

BTW @Sha do you really ignore that many people or were you just testing?

@ShadowWizard A likely story ;)

@ShadowWizard Psssssht yeah right. :P

Derpy

@ShadowWizard you just found out the shadow ban feature. It was intended for people playing with bugs - your ignore rampage must have triggered it.

rene

> Uh oh, we had an issue submitting your timings - we have logged the exception and will be taking a look.
