Hi all,
Given the increasing amount of people, whose posts some users don’t want to read, how about we consider the introduction of a ‘Block’ mechanism on here, which is where users can block the reading of posts from select users we don’t want to converse with.

Will work both ways (i.e. some posters won’t want to read my posts, and I don’t want to read, nor receive, replies from certain users.) and will save the Mods heartache when complaints are lodged.

Thanks.

You'll still see what they're reading when another person bites the troll.

I'm not sure why if you don't want to read someones post, you can't just keep scrolling

Moving this to Feedback.

I don't know if such a function exists on these kinds of forums, or forums in general, but I don't like the idea. Ignore the posts you want to ignore. Abide by the forum rules - and I would like to point out there is one about Forum Atmosphere in general that I believe many people do not abide by at times (inc me, to be fair :lol: ).

Pull another stunt like this notor and I’ll lodge a complaint against you mate.

Get over yourself, you have a penis and a heartbeat, just like all the other blokes that post on here.

You’re no better than anyone else mate.

I hear you, but he has written semi-official blog pieces for this website before, using his real name, so it’s in ‘public record’ now, as far as I am concerned.

Notor some weeks back, maybe before xmas from my hazy memory, made a post asking people not to use his real name in the context of the general forum - particularly when it is not used in a happy, fun way. I respect his request, and will attempt to moderate it for him and others as best I can. You have been warned not to use it again, as far as I am concerned.

FTR I don't object to my name being used per se, but in the way it is used. If someone is using my full name coupled with misogynist & racist attacks on my daughter and wife in a feeble attempt to shame me into silence when I talk about contentious issues the way Scouse and Draups do then I would prefer my name not be used... But it's a free country (for now), my name is fairly widely known and it only really demonstrates the lack of ones argument if they stoop to those lows.

If certain posters offend you that much, write a chrome extension to replace the contents of their posts with something pleasant, such as a filler picture. Fairly trivial to do with a weekends worth of messing around using an existing plugin as a template (eg: the stop tony meow plugin). Just a matter of locating the tags in the rendered HTML and replacing the text between them (can also be done for other posters quoting the person you're trying to block.) Blacklist can be stored in a file locally and updated as necessary.

Dear Mods,

I'd like block function so i don't have to read PM's from the less mentally stable on this forum, no matter how hilarious the content.

To Melbourne_terrace,
I’ve tried to give you a chance, but basically, I find you to be little more than a piece of dirt, a waste of oxygen and space on planet earth.

So like I said to MVFCArsenal a few weeks back, please don’t correspond with me again.

I am happy not to be in contact with pieces of dirt like you, you are a waste of my time.

Don’t correspond with me, and I won’t correspond with you.

Life’s better that way, for both of us.

If you had just said, I'll ignore me, I'll ignore you - that would have been fine.

The fact that you had to colour your PM with insults negates that.

If you post nonsense on the forum, I'll respond how I like.

It's a public forum, you don't get to block people just because they call you out on your ignorance.
