Useless threads and "new posts"

[Taz]

Is there a way to mark all posts from a hyperactive poster so that they do not appear when you search "new posts?"

No but I'm hoping we can curtail him through peer pressure.

Can't you put them on some kind of ignore list?

Yeah. The more you ask, the longer and more frequent the posts get.

Hyper posting...so that's what's it's called?
It's been quite annoying. I just refuse to comment on anything they (mostly a he) post. Have them on ignore but the board still clogs up with old news stories.

Nobody is worse at it then the "EmptyTimCup" as that one has really trashed the "Politics" forum.

See here = Politics - Southern Maryland Community Forums and if we look back on the Politics forum back 10 pages or 20, 30, 40 pages and more there is the repeated meaningless postings by the same "EmptyTimCup" and most of them have zero replies as that poster is a one (1) person display.

Of course there are some others like "Odessa78" and "nhboy" who does it too, but not as much the "Empty" one.

People might not like my postings but I stick to only a few threads and I do not start very many threads.

Just giving the name.

I do that with the polictics forum but there's another offender who's all over the place. I have them on ignore but their thread topics still show up, just not what they write.
It would be great if you could ignore all content from any givin user.

Yeah this crap is getting redonkulous. You can't clear the politics on your phone. I've got pretty much all of them on ignore but it still fods up the board.
