Sorry, sorry, sorry. HIDE POSTER button again.

Zombie is old. Zombie is grumpy. She freely admits to those.

Zombie also has one tit left and there are a few posters who are really, really getting on it.

It's getting to the point that she's about ready to take an extended MN holiday just for the sake of her blood pressure and her sanity.

Please, please may we have a hide poster button?

They won't do it zombie. Have asked loads times.

GrumpySod · 03/01/2013 17:24

lol. Methinks you need steel cladding for that lone tit.

Problem for me is I get vicarious pleasure out of loathing some people, and smirking at the sharp comments made to them. It's an unhealthy sport, though.

SPBInDisguise · 03/01/2013 17:25

They never reply to these :(

Sad Zombie

I want a HIDE SPECIFIC TOPIC button. This week I would mostly have hidden any topic with SAHM mentioned in it.Oh and a kitten emoticon. Ta.

cynner · 03/01/2013 17:30

Ohhhh..Zombie..so sorry! You want I should beat someone up for you? I am little, but mean..

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 17:31

You can hide specific topics. Or individual threads.

Zombie I have an actual list I keep of who is first to be hidden when if HQ ever give in on this. It's getting longer and longer...

cynner · 03/01/2013 17:31

Also please don't go..

Sparklingbrook · 03/01/2013 17:35

I know Tee I just want them hidden before I even read them. Grin If there were the following topics all in one place I could hide them altogether.

SAHM v WOHM
STATE V PRIVATE SCHOOL

I have loads of topics hidden TBH. Grin

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 17:37

So you want a 'hide the ones I'm thinking about' button! A psychic button.

Oh me too!!!!

Grin
HestonsFatCock · 03/01/2013 17:39

Tee, how do I hide whole topics please?

Spot on OP. I could really use a hide poster button for those who talk about themselves in the third person Wink.

Sparklingbrook · 03/01/2013 17:40

YY Tee exactly. Grin And maybe a chestnut emoticon like the biscuit one for 'Not this old chestnut again'. Wink

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 17:44

Hestons, go up there ^ and go to Customise and scroll to the bottom of the page and there's a link to the hide topics page.

Sparkling, what we really need is a button for 'move this to the right topic' and then we can hide the topic!

SoleSource · 03/01/2013 17:45

Hide the poster button would be an abdolute Gosend but it would become obvious if a poster repeats what hidden posterhas already.stated.

Hi NorTEE

Hello Sparklers

SPsFanjoIsAsComfyAsAOnesie · 03/01/2013 17:46

I don't think will do it tbh. Wont it leave gaps in threads if you hide posters?

SoleSource · 03/01/2013 17:47

Exactly SP

thats why

Sigh

People been asking for years

cynner · 03/01/2013 17:48

I am not sure, SP(if that really is you) would not the next reply just come down?

SoleSource · 03/01/2013 17:48

NetMums havehide poster I had 52354896459 on my list

HestonsFatCock · 03/01/2013 17:48

I really want a chestnut emoticon now. Thank you Tee.

SoleSource · 03/01/2013 17:49

Unhidden would see what you and hidden had posyed. Peopke would figure it out and w more sputeful silly games.

Tee2072 · 03/01/2013 17:54

If you want to see how it can work successfully, go to any Delphi Forum. They've had hide poster for years. It inserts 'you've hidden this poster, do you want to unhide this post' link instead of whatever twaddle the poster has posted.

It would really work on MN since you aren't actually replying to a particular post when you reply, but to the whole thread, unless you put the poster's name.

Sparklingbrook · 03/01/2013 17:56

It would be difficult to have a chestnut emoticon. it would look like a small poo, which would probably ok. I have a pile of poo emoticon on my emails and you can have it with flies or without. Grin

Pagwatch · 03/01/2013 18:26

I want a poo emoticon.

Sparklingbrook · 03/01/2013 18:33

Not this pile of poo again. Grin
