Can we have a hide poster button, please? It would cut down on cases where posters rub each other up the wrong way, resulting in a ban or slap ion the wrists.

I will buy you gin!

Ah yes. And the recipient would get a message saying "you are annoying, fuck off"

I'd like MNHQ to have an invisibility button for goaders. They wouldn't know, but other posters wouldn't see them or respond to their posts, and they'd get bored and fuck off.

But I suppose if we had the self-discipline to actually follow the guidelines, this would be entirely unnecessary Grin.

Oh, how I long to be one of those posters who can turn the other cheek and rise above.

I have always been for it.

Also Personal Attack day, whets you can call a cunt a cunt and not get deleted, would make me very very happy.

Yes please god YES can we have this.

I would love to hide the goading twats on my shitlist.

FrankWippery · 01/10/2012 18:45

I did suggest to RebeccaMN that in exchange for cake I could have a free hold on MN for the day. We negotiated and settled on a morning. Just think of the fun.

RandallPinkFloyd · 01/10/2012 19:14

Paisan are you some kind of evil genius Shock

I definitely agree it would be worth it to be able to hide the goaders because I usually end up either pissing myself off by biting or hiding the whole thread just because of one poster.

Personal Attack day would be fucking awesome!

I would like it but feel a bit 'let she who has never goaded cast the first stone' though as am a hypocrite Blush

MadBusLady · 01/10/2012 19:29

Yes please! And then publish monthly league tables of Most Hidden Posters.

HoratiaWinwood · 01/10/2012 19:32

I use Another Parenting Forum (not nethuns) that has an Ignore User button. Hardly anyone uses it. It does disrupt the flow and the only people who really deserve it need Reporting anyway, not hiding.

Truly, don't bother. It's just another annoying button to press by accident on a so-called "smart"phone.

I can pm links to discussions of the pointlessness by those who have access to such delights, if hq or I suppose anyone else is interested.

I must admit, I bought it to their attention via email.
