That is a good idea. Blocking entire convos is hardly ideal when you only don't want to read one person's stuff.

If the OP could block any user from posting to his thread, that would create good things.

You can turn off reply notifications. Blocking comments goes against the whole point of a forum.

no... i am saying that if i were to start a thread and someone comes in and craps all over it in an offtopic kind of way, troll style, i could disallow them from posting in my thread... and all of their posts would be removed from my thread.

this would give the OP of a thread moderation privileges in that thread only.

the flip side of it is that if i were to block you from posting in a thread where i am discussing topic X then you could also begin a similar thread and you could block me.

it would allow a forum to be more free and open, which really isnt what most forums want... it is my opinion that most forums really want to create a clusterfuck.

done.

You were talking about this now and I ran across it going through the mod logs. Dickgoblin.
