Even if he gets banned he makes his way back, and under more aliases.

Even though I'm relatively new to this forums, I support the suggestion!
For a moment, though I was the only one who couldn't stand visiting certain sections of the forum due to the high amount of trash posts...

Oh... and isn't there any other banning alternatives? For example IP Ban, IP branching ban, or a restriction system? That could work for a freak like that... though yeah, there are times when they really don't have anything elso to do with their lives.

If I recall, IP banning is the first thing they do to get rid of a person. Unfortunately, there's dozens of ways around it.

Even after this is implemented, I still don't think I'll go near the discussion forums. Dumb topics, wishy washy answers, answers that make you sound like a fence leaner, people out thinking the topic, and people who think they know everything just irk me too much. Even with this I couldn't block all the things that annoy me so I might as well keep avoiding the discussion threads. I do still want this, though, so I could block a certain someone for the hell of it.

He rarely makes more than one post per thread anyway - he may troll, but at least he doesn't crap.
Peace through Superior Firepower!

That is quite hard to do when the user constantly spams "Dicks!!!" for 15-30 minutes.

This feature will most likely never be implemented.

The reason you find very few forums if any, with this feature, is because it would cause an enormous extra strain on the server. It would require extra, and needlessly complicated mysql queries and a buttload of extra php.

In fact, I can't even think of a way to do it without putting a mysql query inside a while loop, which is a big php no-no.


So, basically, if someone is so annoying you can't stand them, learn to ignore them like an adult. :O
Or push for more strict moderation.

Incorrect, and it's been proven multiple times throughout this thread that there are many more forums with this feature, than without.

You try ignoring people who post stuff like DICKS for an hour or two straight, it's impossible. You end up just having to leave the forum until mods do something about it.

Don't act like it's impossible when this is one of the only forums I visit without an ignore feature or some basis of self-moderation.

Show me forums that have a full ignore feature, and I'll show you forums that aren't powered by PHP.

I'm also willing to bet they don't have near the userbase this one does.

And like I said, push for stricter moderation, if that's the problem.

It's PHP written, but vBulletin does.
And as said on the vBulliten website, it puts an ENORMOUS strain on the server, to the effect of what it would be like having 7 times the user base posting at once.

For people who don't know PHP, let me simplify this.

Normally, to display a thread I assume Xinil's mysql query is something like this(simplified):

SELECT * FROM posts WHERE threadid = $threadId


Now, imagine you have 10 people in your ignore list, it would change to something like this (not exactly, but same effect):

SELECT * FROM posts WHERE threadid = $threadId AND author != 'annoyinguser1' AND author != 'annoyinguser2' AND author != 'annoyinguser3' AND author != 'annoyinguser4' AND author != 'annoyinguser5' AND author != 'annoyinguser6' AND author != 'annoyinguser7' AND author != 'annoyinguser8' AND author != 'annoyinguser9' AND author != 'annoyinguser10'
along with another query beforhand to check your ignore list.

This means that instead of just grabbing all of the posts of a certain thread, it will have to check each and every post to make sure the author isn't on your ignore list.


Or, it could be done to check each and every post as it's being prepared to display on the page, which would be even MORE resource consuming.

Imagine the extra stress this puts on the server, and the extra time it would take to load threads... a VERY NOTICEABLE difference. Is it really that worth not seeing a few posts that say "DICKS" to have to wait 3 minutes just for the page of one thread to load?

Nobody cares about the code.

It's usability of the forum.

It needs self-moderation, that's that.

There's much more than a handful of users that don't always do as much as to be banned, but are annoying as fuck.

Half the time its those same users who say this is useless.
