is there a way to block topics/posts by certain members?

[amish]

as of late there have been many topics that have been created that are utter wastes of bandwidth and time to even read the titles. usually these topics are created by a small group of people, attention whores if you will, but they are taking it to the extreme. is there a way that i can block any topic that they create?

Sounds as if you're describing all of OT. If that's the case, you can block the entire forum like some do for P&N.

There's a global function: Don't log in. Crude, but it works.

VBulletin 3.0 allows you the ability to 'hide' a particular posters posts from your view globally - all you see is their mouth (name taking up very 'lil space) but no words . . You have a 'buddy' & whats called an 'ignore' list. hehe

I'm looking for the board RULES???? Any?? Is there such a thing as a 'sticky'?? Who runs this place??

Ability to Ignore would be very nice.

I brought this up some time ago, I believe it's on the "I want list", but not on the "to do list".
