GB Away 2013

For those who miss Orangutan's gbaway2 script for Firefox / GreaseMonkey, I have uploaded a beta version for use with the new RHP site design.

http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/170604

For those who have not used it, the script adds a button to all forum posts which allows you to block every forum post made by that user. There is also a link to un-block if you make a mistake.

Known issues: if you click 'unblock' and then change your mind and hit Cancel, it will un-block the first user. You can avoid this by entering any number that is not on the list.

Enjoy!

(Disclaimer : "GB" does not refer to anyone specific. Think of it generically - "Gigantic Bore", or, if they are not your USA football team, "Green Bay Packers". 😉)

Thanks for that. Pity that site's install count doesn't work, scriptwriters don't get any feedback to tell them how much interest there is.

Shows how well I've kept my stuff updated...! I didn't even know the counter broke. However, I anticipate I will get some feedback here. Look, 2 thumbs down already! 🙂

I just added mine to keep things going. 🙂 The one person I hide doesn't have the initials GB. I wonder who the naysayers are, the ones who think we should have to put up with their interminable BS?

The interminables also have their 'oh, he's not hurting anything' defenders. But whoever it is, I didn't write it for them (unless they wish to use it on my posts 🙂)

I'm sure they are from the Gigantic Bore himself and his trusty side kick Very Reactive.

"BS: from Latin "Bulbus Stercum" "1. it stands for BS; 2. it is said when someone tells a lie; 3. it is used when someone says something to suck-up; 4. it is said when you literally see bull poo; 5. a term used when you have to speak or write for a certain length and you have nothing better to say." (internet/urban slang)

"I wonder who the naysayers are, the ones who think we should have to put up with their interminable BS?" (Kewpie)

Of which five offenses are these "naysayers... who think we should have to put up with their interminable BS." guilty? (gb)

"a term used when you have to speak or write for a certain length and you have nothing (better) to say."

Hi, empovsun. Yep, English is my Mother Tongue. As to the definitions, maybe just happens following a sound night's sleep and a hearty Country Boy Breakfast. Maybe not. Maybe I read all the wrong, unassigned books at a major university in Beantown. Maybe, one of them was a collection of the works of T.S. Eliot, a few lines of which printed permanently on my forehead. One of them about the poet's primary responsibility in ancient times might be the culprit: "Since our concern was speech, and speech impelled us/ To purify the dialect of the tribe/ And urge the mind to aftersight and foresight..."
