Dr Bob all below would be fine with me....Where I post you check and uncheck the box to ignore so say poster 1 is ignored by me for say repeated threads on the same subject till I no longer want to read the same ole thing and find its saping my energy..I can hit ignore said poster but maybe a year later I feel I can deal with it again I can uncheck it and read poster 1's threads again ...now if poster 2 posts to poster 1 and quotes him or her...then I can see it but its saves time. Also you can rid of people who post subjects you find PERSONALLY offensive but others do not then you have the option of just never reading anything THEY post again and it saves a lot of time skipping over serial posters. Like say poster number 1 posts at least a new thread a day usually on the same basic subject and you find you no longer wish to see or read it...you do not have to scroll past ALL the past and present posts they start. I can live without ignore but it would be cool IMO
> OTOH, something temporary could be a compromise... What if it couldn't be permanent? And only a limited number of posters could be ignored? And posts by them didn't just disappear, but were xxxed out?
