Quote - Personally, I would probably only use an "ignore" / "block user" button if it could be applied per thread... unless I noted a specific individual doing nothing else, ever, but trolling or evangelising obsessively and aggresively on one topic, I suppose...

...but, the technical implementation of per thread blocking would likely be much trickier, I would guess.

Exactly! I dont' think I'd use one across the board. There are few forums where I've blocked anyone universally. Per thread is an awesome suggestion. Chat does that very thing and it's worked very well. There's only one instance that comes to mind where any staff needed to get involved. Perhaps Rendo needs to take a page from the chat program...lolol.

If I knew what needed to be coded, I'd offer my services for free just to get it done. However, I can't code my way out of a paper bag...lol.
