I know, I asked that same question yesterday. They said it was to keep from getting certain people's plurks

Nope. When you click on mute, you no longer see the thread upon which you clicked it.

ahhh, yes that is what I meant

that is a great addition...so i can just mute all the plurks in my stream that i'm not involved in then?

but not the "plurker" entirely as i was afraid of?

BRILLIANT SOFTWARE FEATURE

i'm impressed

even if i had thought of it a few days before they did it.

it actually worked though...it doesnt seem to

Did you see the writeup that dotlizard and I did for the suggestion?

dotlizard.com/2008/06/pl...

i just muted a bunch of stuff and hit refresh and it's all still there....

so i'm not getting something ...what's it good for again?

It vastly cuts down in the clutter in your timeline.

If there is an entire thread about green widgets, and you only care about the red frammis, you can mute the grren widgets.

he understood..how come the ones i just muted are still there?

and do you mean red frammis and green widgets?

HELP!!!!

Sometimes the muted ones stay around for a couple of refreshes.

Yes, I do.

i meant to say "what is a red frammis and a green widget"? is that relevant?

so if i hit "refresh" like 4 times fast it should work? or maybe <shift>-refresh?

i just muted something and hit refresh 40 or so times and it didn't work

cant hear you your muted speak up

it's still there.

boo.

he is astounded. It works for him. Maybe it knows you are leaving the country.

it didn't work for me either...not that I could tell.

is this a "settings" problem

what browser do you use frawg?

FF 2.

where is KeithHanson when you need him?

me2

damn. i'd love to have this work, because it would make this SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better it's not even funny

dial up FF and see if it flies then...

dial up?

huh?

Run Plurk in Firefox.

ver. 2.0.0.14

I'm on OS X, of course, but the feature works in the same way in XP.

I have XP on the other side if my KVM.
