Feature request: Optimus filter

category: general [glöplog]
Hmmm, it would be nice, to have an "Ignore Optimus" mode here on pouet. I always enjoyed reading the BBS, but I'm really annoyed by the Optimus shit. It would be nice, to have another checkbox in the login, something like "Login for a year and filter out Optimus brainwank shit"...

In return I'm willing to donate some hardware for the pouet server, maybe you need a new HD or something like this.

@Optimus: Please get a life. Or better, get a girlfriend - Beate Uhse or Orion surely got some nice chicks for you, made from polyvinyl chloride and plasticiser...

don't bother, the whole 'get a life/girlfriend' issue was talked over a few months ago. You better just accept Optimus they way he is, telling him to get a life won't stop him and the idea of a filter is kinda harsh, innit...

when he left he was missed, when he came back he got pooped on again :)

Optimus is my hero. People like him annoy the shit out of people on webforums like this, and in the end they'll realize that webforums suck and that the interfaces of most newsclients are a 1000 times better than any existing webforum. If there was such a thing as news.pouet.net (and if news.scene.org would come back) then they could filter whatever they wanted to filter.

So keep on going Optimus, you're working for a good cause :-)

haha.. hail!

and btw.. having a girlfriend is fucking overrated, don't tell people to 'go get a girlfriend cause that will solve your problems' that's fucking bullcrap!

Optimus seems to be a lame attempt to copy "Huerbine":

Only his posts are still easier to understand and there seems to be some kind of story - oh and of course he is still limited to Pouet.

someone please drop a fucking nuke on greece
Okkie: sometimes it is not - it depends on whom you get. And you're not getting anyone good with that attitude of hatred towards all female. I and Digital Devotion guys promise to get some girls to Breakpoint, in spite of you!

Optimus: do you really want to be such a sick guy as Okkie? No, i'm fucking not telling you to get a girlfriend. It's all about attitude. And your hatred towards this and that one has nothing to do with a kind. Remember you told me how gladly you tell girls about your troubles, if they listen? So!

And if not Optimus threads, what would be of Pouet? Emptiness.

I have a built-in "Optimus Ignore" feature. Afterall, his posts are so long and incoherent it completely discourages me from attempting to read his ramblings..
Try a search for "death of optimus" on google (including quotation marks) - 529 hits!!

Instead of setting up a filter against one single person, it'd be better to introduce a general ignore feature.

tomcat: yep. that'd be correct way of going about the thing...

Most of which refers to the might and noble Optimus Prime.
a "top 10 ignored" next to the "top 10 gloppers" would help the new comers to know who are the biggest nuisance :)

yeah, but you just *know* there would be heated competition to get on that list, too.

So, there should be an "ignore all messages" option too.

ileaardbei:

Dropping a Nuke over Greece would not be sensible in any way for two very important reasons:

1) Greeks may not be the best humans on the planet, but generaly they do not (I repeat) _they_do_not_ act like Optimus does. There are in fact some Greeks who are cool people. Killing them would be a pity.
2) Optimus (if I am not mistaken) currently resides in Germany, meaning that you would miss your primary target, while killing lots of innocent people in the process.

Now, imagine you are Greek, not many people know alot about your country, except for a shining example like Optimus and his behaviour. On second thought, drop the fucker. Twice. Put us out of our misery.

Another thing I would like to point out, is that an Optimus-only filter would be totally useless. He already uses several fake accounts that people would most probably like to filter-out too. I mean, it's so fucking curious how this thread went from top spot to no 14 in less than 12 hours while bringing so many forgotten (>2 years) threads above it.

(oops! all this hard work, and a simple post brings this to No1 again. hehehe :-)

i don't understand what's the problem with Optimus - he just brings life to pouet...

interesting (and scary - like 8% of all posts wouldn't be enough) thought. Wonder if stelthz is just someone bored in all this though..

a nuke on germany then, would solve even more problems

too bad it's so close to the netherlands... :(
Face it, most pouet users are boring bastards or we wouldn't be on pouet all the time. But unlike Optimus, the rest of us are ashamed to admit it.
