I may also have a DISSUADE action, which is similar to DENY but gives the user an option to do it anyway. It will say, in effect, something similar to "I do not like receiving bumps, this better be good."

*AHEM* The ignore feature will also need to IGNORE comments in-thread and Freepmail too. That will be handled similarly.

Oh my , there was a thread just last night where a Freeper was asking how he could do something that was very similar to what you seem to be describing.

We gave him a hard time!

Does this mean that I will be able to ignore my own posts in my self-search list, so that I see only the responses, and not my own posts?

Excellent. Thanks for all the fine work you've done. Does ignoring a poster include entire threads? As in, will we be able to eliminate all articles posted by certain people? Also, will you include a way to put all articles posted by certain people to the top?

FYI, have you ever heard of the Emacs-based mail and newsreader called Gnus? It doesn't use killfiles, instead, it uses score files. Scores are numeric and can be based on context (matching subject text, etc.), author. While reading, you are also allowed to manually score up or down. The manual is here if you want to cherry pick ideas.

Great, there are two forum sites that I use besides Free Republic. They both offer the kill option. Want to ignore all posts from some user? "What" = anything, "Context" = some user

This is the greatest invention/programing asset on these sites. One is a supposedly Conservative Political site often overrun by liberals and those claiming to be conservatives. One is a fly fishing site. The ability to block out clymers is wonderful.

This will be a massive improvement with your great site.

Congratulations on two nice events this week for you and your dad , the judgement, and the successful Freepathon for this summer!

Thanks for all that you do for this site and for us!

BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE ...

It cuts, it slices, it dices. Yes, sir, your own set of Handy-Dandy KillFiles brought to you by the same folks that gave you Free Republic!

LOL! Thanks, John for all your hard work.

Hows this coming if you are close to moving to "themes"?
