help

Is there a hack to let you NOT see posts by specific people? I've got a board that's going haywire with flames, and rather than ban people I'd like them to just ignore each other and not see the posts.

That's not likely to work - if they're gonna argue, they're gonna argue...

How about an admin doing this to one person so they think people can see their posts but they aren't showing for all?

That'd work too.

I'd think it'd be pretty easy to let a user create an ignore list, and have a simple "if/then" that checks the ignore list and if the poster's name isn't in it then you display the post, otherwise you don't.

EDIT: Well, easy for someone who knows Perl, I should say. I'm still a flaming n00b. tipsy
