Blocking capability

bda116 · 01-17-2007, 12:45 PM

We really need the ability to block certain forums from our views.
This was very helpful at FBo, and I would prefer not even seeing those moronic sheeple threads in the "Today's Posts" list so I won't be tempted to click on them and have my IQ drop 80 points.
Thanks.

You have 80 to drop

It is a good idea

Would these posts reside in the religion and political forums?

Hmm........... how did you guess?

And Purp, I guess I may have overstated that a bit.

not ALL of my threads are IQ lowering

I think you've made a valid point there, BDA -

SInce you WANT to stay out of the fray, I got rid of the posts that weren't on track. Including a bunch of mine..

Your friendly fascist at work.

Ok, you should be able to opt out of the Politics and Religion forums now. To enable the feature, go into your User CP and then click on Edit Options. You will see the two forums listed at the bottom of the page. To select both you should be able to click on "The Watercooler" or hold down the Ctrl key and click on both forums. Let me know if there are any issues with it. I tested it, but I've been wrong once before.

I just re-read this from when it was first posted. I remember what inspired it.

It is something I should use.
I ALWAYS jump in on some thread and then regret it for DAYS. I wish I could keep my mouth shut. It's got me in trouble since I was four.

I actually have all the forums turned off, it's just easier browsing that way.
