Ignore Users Option On Forums
You know how on the main site, you have the option to "ignore users". Comments by them cannot be seen.
What if we had the same thing on the forums? We could "ignore" posts by users we are not-so-fond of. This would be good for me, because of certain users that shall remain nameless.
What do you think?

Re: Ignore Users Option On Forums
It was actually suggested before on the LS Forums but it was decided to be a bad idea.

It appears that I can't find the posts to show you, but it's not like you can see them without signing up anyways.
It's a bad idea because.. well let's use common sense here:
Example 1:
User 1 (blocking User 2): I need scratch help! Blah blah this does whatever blah blah.
User 2: Here you go... blah blah blah
User 1: Why won't anyone respond?
Example 2:
User 1: *posts a topic about a certain thing*
User 2 (blocking User 1): *posts topic about the same exact thing*
User 3: Duplicate Topic
User 2: No it's not *flamewar commences*

Re: Ignore Users Option On Forums
Yeah - on the comments, it's not exactly discussion-oriented between all members of the community. On the forums, however, it's important to read every post - and chaos would reign! Besides, if you don't like what a user is posting, feel free to report it if you feel it's inappropriate.
