some of the forum sites have a feature which allows you to block/hide a members posts/responses from your view.

1) I get to where I just can't stand some people and know some will feel the same about me.

2) some of the UK and euro sites are blocked where I work. I cant see members images and it tends to tie up my browser trying.

another feature - Post Jail
feature sends a post to Jail. If three members vote to send a post to Jail it gets deleted automatically. Generally used to rid the site of offensive posts.

The block/hide feature might be alright, although I know I will never need it on this site. As for the post jail, I think it is a bad idea. I know that the forum moderators on this site will do a good job of monitoring offensive and off-topic posts.

A feature for hiding/blocking certain posts is not available to my knowledge.

As far as "offensive posts" go, if you spot any, please notify a moderator right away. Greg, E.J. and I can be contacted about any forum, and the specific forum moderators are listed at the upper left corner of the page while you're in the forum's main page.
