The old FHB forum had a wonderful feature — the ability to say “ignore this user” and have the posts of selected idiots blocked from your view. It made the forum usable. How do we accomplish this with the new forum?

Hey DanH,
I'm not sure about that, but I'll certainly look into it. Can you elaborate? Is it so that you don't get notified of their replies to your posts? Or some other scenario?
Thanks,
Rob
At the bottom of a post from the problem user you could click the option "Ignore user" and then, subsequently, any posts by that user would show with the single line "You have chosen to ignore this user", with some sort of option to look at the post anyway. It was one of the things that made the old FHB forum tolerable.
