Hide thread - title still showing in ‘active/trending’

[MangoSmooothie]

Is there a way when you hide a thread for it to be hidden within trending or active? There’s a thread I have hidden, but the title is triggering.

Always been the same. And yes it is annoying.

Hi @MangoSmooothie - thanks for flagging this.

If you're talking about a thread you've hidden yourself, unfortunately we're not able to prevent it from showing in the Trending box which is based on an algorithm and shows the most-viewed threads at any time. However, we are able to exclude a thread from the Trending box if we feel the title could cause distress. Please always report any such threads so we can take a closer look.

If you're talking about a thread that's been hidden by MNHQ (which would display a message saying: 'This thread has been hidden by MNHQ')
we'll have a look to see if this is something that could happen automatically when a thread is hidden by us. We've had a few overnight trolls posting threads with very nasty titles lately, so it would be good if those ones were automatically excluded from Active Conversations at least.
