    If there was still a suggestions/bug section I was going to ask they modify the software so quote elements somehow incorporate the quoted user-id in the class/id.

    Poor NLUK
    Dont be sorry, its a great tip! For which I thank you! I think this should be a sticky, or maybe it should be added to NLUK's sig?

    The only slight problem is people who insist on quoting someone when they reply.

    Getting yourself tied and tangled in an argument (ironically something I could see you like in real life), then ignoring someone because of it, and you call other people childish, and insecure.

    Wow, you've just managed to lower my opinion of you, and that was already as low as a snakes nads.

    And absolutely LOVING the reference to OH well, in bold in case someone missed it. God, I was completely right about you, absolutely spot on the money

    Way, way, way too funny...

    But if you use adblock or some other tool to block class="postbitignored postbitim" the offending post just disappears entirely.

    In adblock (on chrome at least) the filter you can add is:
    forums.contractoruk.com##[class="postbitignored postbitim"]

    Hope this is useful to someone, if there's a bug I missed hopefully NickFitz might point it out
    I like it. Your instructions were a bit poor, Ad Block Options, Customise, Manually Edit your filters, Paste in there, Save. No more NLUK!

    If you spend your time reading an argument between two other people, more fool you. All the discussions between Scottish people about Scottish things are unutterably dull to me, so I try to avoid them.

    What I am saying is that your 50% is just total pish chat.

    I rarely use insults. You're mistaking arguments and discussion for insults probably because that's how you conduct yourself.

    See - if you viewed that as an insult you prove my point.

    As for one person cluttering up threads, it's simple logic that when two people have a spat approx 50% come from each, unless you're one of those two people in which 100% come from the other.

    If you don't like what I post, see above. I shared this specifically for that kind of purpose, but you'd rather start a fight about it.

    Off the top of my head it looks OK; I'll let you know if I come across anything to the contrary

    I don't bother blocking ads because my consciousness automatically rejects them anyway. I do use ClickToFlash though, because Flash is a resource hog with a habit of crashing.

    Not that I bother setting posters to ignore, I like to chuckle at the idiots occasionally and have learnt not to get riled up by their ignorance
