Ignore v5
Install:
1. Mozilla Firefox
2. Greasemonkey
3. paizo_ignore.user.js
Notes:
- Your old ignore list will not be preserved in the upgrade. (Sorry)
- The "Ignore" link has been renamed "Block User". The function is still the same.
- There is now a "Hide" link. Per a brilliant suggestion by Maizing, this link will hide the specific post without blocking everything else the user has ever written.
- The lists to Un-Hide posts and Un-Block users are still at the very bottom of the page. Scroll all the way down, and click to remove it from the list.
- The Un-Hide list is quite cryptic; sorry about that. Hopefully you won't need to un-hide too many times.
Is anyone having issues with version 5? I can't get Firefox to open the Paizo messageboards now that I have Ignore v5. To see the boards, I have to use Chrome, which of course won't let me use Ignore.
Mage, thanks for your work on this. Hopefully this is just an issue on my machine, and everyone else has it working properly.

Thank you for the bug report. It looks like this was due to a jQuery conflict.
Please reinstall the ignore script (same location as above) and the messageboards should work again.
Thank you! Very much appreciated!
Now, to look for a post from that one guy, so as to not see him anymore...

You just made my day. Thanks!!!
you kids and your delicate sensibilities....
Now, to look for a post from that one guy, so as to not see him anymore...BUT HOW WOULD YOU KNOW?
Oh, I'll know. When the level of trollitude drops down to manageable levels, he's on ignore.
Awesome job Mage! Thanks a lot.
Awesome, you're the man AM =D Thanks a ton!
Thank you wise owl!
But who are you talking to?
Is there any way to get this script to work in Chrome? Please? All of the previous versions seemed to work fine except this one.
Thanks for any help you can give in advance.

I've mostly abandoned Chrome as a development platform because Google is going to require Chrome extensions to be hosted on the Chrome Web Store, at least for Windows users.
On which platform are you using Chrome?
It looks like Tampermonkey might be worth a shot, as it might allow Chrome to run the Greasemonkey version of the script. (You may need to rename it "paizo_ignore.tamper.js" instead.)
I'd try it myself, but I've got some pegged dependencies that won't let me install the latest version of Chrome.
Can you give that a shot and let us know if it works?
Why would hosting it on the web store be a bad thing?

Google says hosting it on the web store is for security; the user's own protection. I agree 100%. I know a protection pitch when I hear one...
That's a real nice extension you've got there. It'd be a real shame if your users couldn't install it.

I'm using Chrome on OS X. UGH. Darn you Google!

Looks like userscripts.org is down for the count.
Bad News: The Ignore script pulled a dependency from there. Greasemonkey isn't going to like not being able to download that. :-(
Good News: The dependency is easily replaced. I'll get v6 up shortly.

Ignore v7 is now in place.
Follow the same directions at the top of the thread.Happy, err... Ignorance is bliss! :-)
Unless I am mistaken, it doesn't seem to install properly. I open the link, it says "downloading" and sometimes it downloads, sometimes it doesn't. Even if it does, pressing the install button doesn't do anything (or is grayed out, if it didn't dowload). Looking at the user script tab, a few times it mentioned that v6 was installed, but after closing the browser and opening it again, the script was gone.

Sorry for the delay, my Internet connection at home has inoperative all weekend.
If you do run into trouble installing v7, you may need to:
- Click the Greasemonkey menu (small arrow next to the monkey icon)
- Click "Manage User Scripts..." on the drop-down menu
- Find "paizo_ignore" in the Add-ons Manager tab
- Click the "Remove" button on the right-hand side
After that, just click this URL to install Ignore v7:
http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~meade/greasemonkey/paizo_ignore.user.js
With the old version removed and the new version in place, everything should work. Go into a thread on the Messageboards and see the Hide / Block options show up.
Let me know if this works, magnuskn. :-)
v7 seems to be missing the section under "Script Settings" for "Included Pages". Older versions had http://*.paizo.com/, http://paizo.com/*, and a couple others there; v7 is blank.

Looks like this is a difference between the @include and @match tags.
Older versions had a metadata block like this:
// ==UserScript==
// @name paizo_ignore_v4
// @namespace http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~meade/greasemonkey/
// @description Ignore posters on Paizo's messageboards
// @include http://paizo.com/*
// @include http://*.paizo.com/*
// @include https://paizo.com/*
// @include https://*.paizo.com/*
// ==/UserScript==
And the latest version has a metadata block like this:
// ==UserScript==
// @name paizo_ignore
// @version 7
// @updateURL http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~meade/greasemonkey/paizo_ignore.user.js
// @namespace http://pages.cs.wisc.edu/~meade/greasemonkey/
// @description Improve signal-to-noise ratio on Paizo's messageboards
// @match http://paizo.com/*
// @match http://*.paizo.com/*
// @match https://paizo.com/*
// @match https://*.paizo.com/*
// @require http://code.jquery.com/jquery-2.1.0.min.js
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==
Note that all of the @include tags became @match tags.
The @match metadata imperative is very similar to @include, however it is safer. It sets more strict rules on what the * character means.
For details, see the documentation on Match Patterns for Google Chrome. Chrome implemented @match first, and Greasemonkey has been designed to be compatible.
Source: http://wiki.greasespot.net/Metadata_Block#.40match
However, just as you pointed out Orthos, it appears that @match tags DO NOT show up in the Script Settings.
I just checked, and it looks like there is an open issue about adding this feature to Greasemonkey:
Display and edit @match rules in 'clude editor #1703
So it appears the script will keep working on the specified pages. It just won't show up in Greasemonkey's include/exclude list yet.

Hiya! :) It worked a few days ago, I am not sure what changed, since I repeated the same steps I had done before. In any case, many thanks again for this invaluable script. If only Paizo would see the benefits of this function, it really helps with keeping the trolls suppressed.
Thanks for this script. Hopefully I don't feel the need to use it very often.

We need this now more than ever. Or maybe a max damage acid energy admixed flamestrike.

So how does this work? I need to ignore someone.
