Blocking posts?

Possibly a question for a different forum but does anyone know if there is a way to block certain Forum posts?

i.e. I know you can block other Fab users from viewing your profile, but can you also block all posts from certain people when you read forum posts so they just don't appear on your view?

Like you can when you block people on Twitter and certain other Forums etc?

Anyone know? It really would be a most useful piece of functionality if you could.

Thank you

nope.......

besides it would make forums threads incredibly disjointed....

just because you don't like someone doesn't mean there contribution to a thread isn't any less valid

...AND if someone it would stop the arguments..which are kinda fun to watch.

Hi - ok thank you for a prompt reply

I didn't think you could but took a chance just in case you could! I didn't know about the green arrow for weeks so thought on the off chance the functionality might be there!

Just scroll down . It really is easy to adjust your experience on here. Ignore, don't read, filter, block...etc etc.

I wish you could.. I blocked someone for being rude they then found me in the forums and were particularly nasty and take some time for the posts to be deleted that shouldnt be allowed to happen

But wouldn't that be a personal choice? They would only be blocked from your own personal view, not everyone else's.

You can do it on a number of other forums I'm on - and I'm not suggesting anyone's views aren't valid, it's just that I don't want to read them (just the same as people have the right to block me from reading their profile, it's their personal choice)

What if you had blocked lots of people that posted on the forums? You wouldn't get the drift of the thread would you?

When you see certain names don't read the post. Of course this may mean that you don't see this suggestion

But what happens if someone quotes the post? Should that be blocked, too?
