I've always been against it, but I've changed my mind.

[BlameItOnTheCuervo]

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!

And offered gin.

I bumped it lots/ We had a wonderful discussion. I think even you may have been on it. Maybe they've all hidden me?

No, you can't call a cunt a cunt. It's a personal attack and the post gets deleted.

And sometimes a cunt really needs to be called a cunt.

BTW I used to be on Delphi Forums and they encourage the use of the ignore button rather than reporting. In fact, if you report someone you get a message saying 'have you tried ignoring the poster?'

It doesn't interrupt the flow. You just see their name and the option to unhide that particular post or the poster in general.

::already making a list of people to hide::

Ah, I may have been. Under a different name

@BlameItOnTheCuervo

Exactly Boffy. And alsio means that trolly goaders don't get what they want!

But don't forget that goading is against our Talk Guidelines. And if you hide all the goaders, we won't get any reports about them - and won't be able to warn/ban them.

@Maryz

Wouldn't it just

We could take turns [generous]. Maybe we could each have it for a night a month. It would save hq sooooo much time and effort.

Would there be any posters left, though?

@SuperB0F

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 .

Indeed

@InfinityWelcomesCarefulDrivers

huh I started a thread exactly like this a couple of months ago and got no response from MNHQ

And apols, Infinity. Must have been my day off

I promise to report trolly goaders before hiding.

why can't the report button include an option to hide poster, so you have to report to hide but can't hide without reporting?

Actually, Delphi Forums also has a sort of invisible poster option where a mod can mark someone as a Bozo, I think it is, and they think they are posting as normal, but it doesn't appear on the boards at all.

on vBulletin it was called 'tachy goes to Coventry' for some reason but it always seemed a bit cruel

arf at added to killfile, seems a little extreme

Alameda, great idea!

nobody EVER says that!

it would mean people not hiding other posters lightly too, which is obviously better for cohesion and that sort of thing

Yes. If I giot into a strop and had pmt I'd have to think before hiding.

Net mum's has a hide poster button..

Just sayin.....

again

is it actually called net mum's complete with free grocer apostrophe?

GREENgrocer

argh

want a HIDE SELF button

I am not going to nms. I was here before the triolly goaders. And I love mn. Just not some posters. And I don't want to get a bollockIng for tellIng someone to fuck off
