Fanboy's annoyance list without social blocking?

I understand how social buttons are an annoyance, and to be fair, most of the buttons are to me. But things like logins to leave comments and whatnot are blocked. Is there a separate fanboy's annoyance list than the standard one?

Unfortunately not but you still can create your own annoyance list

It's an unexpected behavior. Do you have an example where logins/comments are blocked by "
Fanboy's annoyance list"?

Or (easier):
Code: Select all
cat fanboy-annoyance.txt fanboy-social.txt > my-annoyance.txt

"
diff" will print differences between the two files. Since fanboy-annoyance contains fanboy-social, diff between both files will print fanboy-annoyance filters without fanboy-social filters.
"
cat" on the other end will concatenate both files. Since fanboy-annoyance contains fanboy-social, cat of the two files will leave you with fanboy-social's filters duplicated.

Ah yes both of you are right. I needed to re-read the OP.
