Hiding specific posters...again!

Sorry to bring this up again, I know it's been requested many times.

But in the light of the recent upheaval I've seen a few people reiterate that it would be something they'd benefit from so wondered if the stance may have altered at all.

I understand the thing about threads maybe not making total sense without certain posts but surely that's for the individual to cope with, if they have chosen to ignore someone...also I've seen it on a lot of other forums and it seems to work, I'm not sure how.

It isn't so much the odd post here and there on a thread, anyway...that's fine, I can ignore that. But if someone is really prolific and starts many threads per day, it would be such a relief not to see these all the time in Active threads.

I'd be grateful for an update as to whether you might be considering this option, somewhere on the back burner.

Thanks.

Hi all, just a quick note to say we've seen this - we'll have to come back to you on the idea of hiding posters.

Hi all,
Sorry no change of position here. We think it would be fraught with difficulty in the sense that it could leave threads making very little sense. Mumsnet is a site for discussion and is founded on the idea that everyone's opinion is welcome, even if we strongly disagree with it.

That said, if you believe a particular poster is behaving badly - deliberately inflaming or attacking - do report it. We will always follow up.
