Blocking Certain users
EDIT: THIS IS RESOLVED, LOOK AT CHEDDARGIRL'S POST.
After repeatidly being spammed by a certain user, that I will not say the username of, it's wanted me to block certain users. Just block them from adding projects to a gallery(my problem), or maybe commenting. I get exicted when I get over 10 messages, finding out it's spam projects. Grrr... Well it's the Eevee Club RPG gallery of mine, maybe you should check it out everyfew days to see the projects that are spammy, I'll probably have deleted them before you see it though.

Re: Blocking Certain users
Actually, you can block certain users by using your ignore list. You can access your ignore list on your user page, and adding the name of the offending user to the ignore list should block the user from commenting and seeing you user page, projects, and galleries. 
If you need help with your ignore list, see this project.

I use my ignore list when needed, but I had know idea it blocked from that too! Thank you. I'll keep this thread here, incase others have that problem. But I'll show that this problem is resolved.
EDIT: Though this is fixed. Before I do so, look over here(it's my problemo): http://scratch.mit.edu/galleries/view/55495 HURRY, BEFORE I REMOVE THE SPAM PROJECTS!

It seems that your gallery is open to everybody, so anybody can add whatever projects they want - unfortunately, it has also led to users adding spam projects. One option to this solution is to change the settings of your gallery so you can limit who is able to add projects to the gallery (preferably, in this case, certain friends). These setting can be accessed on the gallery's page (there is a button that says "change who can add projects").

Yeah, but'll be a problem...I'll add a notice for people to add me first. Like in the AU gallery. Therefore, this is completely resolved. Thank you very much.
