Request: 'Ignore threads by user' feature

[bah]

Is there such a feature?

Adding spam bots like
Kotaku
360fanboy11
ps3fanboy11
dsfanboy11
Engadget
slashdot11
and the rest to an ignore list only replaces their posts with some text explaining it is hidden.
If there was a way to ignore (not display at all) all threads by a chosen users (when viewing a section or the 'new posts' feature), at least I wouldn't have to search through the useless clutter.

Getting rid of the bots would be better, but I'm selfish enough to be happy with only freeing myself from their spam. :)


Anyone else think this would be useful?

This function should be added

[ExcruciationX]

LOL, good idea. I would totally use this! :)

[Triv1um]

So would I. Good idea.

This would have been amazing when that Vampbrin (Is that the spelling) guy was here.

its not a bad idea... these bots fills one or two page threads and its kinda annoying

[WhizzBang]

It's a great idea. I too am fed up with all the posts by bots.

I noticed PSPfanboy was "banned" too.

I didn't realise there was an 'ignore threads' option - only seen the 'ignore posts' one.

Yes, I was happy when I saw them banned. But later I noticed they still can post :(

[acn010]

who banned them i may ask???

[Triv1um]

All of the fanboy ones are banned, and a few others.

Yet they can still post. Madness.

[Napalm-Death]

Madness? THIS. IS. DCEMUUUUUUUUUU.

And yeah, I noticed that PS3Fanboy and a few others are banned. I hope they actually get banned.
You post in a thread, and what do you see? A lot of things that Wraggster had already posted a few days before.

But yeah, if you guys dont want to get rid of the spambots, then a block users option would be nice :)

[ExcruciationX]

LOL at sparta commands you...

The fact that the accounts are banned but can still post is hilarious...

Funny, but still irritating, possibly more irritating than those BLOODY CATS (Conker reference).
How long have those things been around? I think they werent here when I first joined (Dec 2007), but I might be wrong.

Ah, then I was here for 11 days when they came.

They should be killed.

Rarely the case. Wrag is slow.

The choice to have or not to have the news bots would be perfect. Whether thats by blocking each one of them or by them all being in one special group and blocking that group and thus them all at once. That would be nice.

Thank you. :D

[Eviltaco64]

You're welcome! ^_^

ROFL

[bah]

I'm really glad I'm not the only one who would like the option....


I salute whoever attempted to ban the bots :)
