Forum Feature Request

Some members of this forum add little to the discussions aside from disparaging remarks and personal attacks. I know the moderators do the best they can to remove objectionable content, but I've noticed that there are a few folks who consistently post within the boundaries of the rules yet, in my opinion, add no value. Could you add a feature for us to "ignore" particular members, their replies and their discussions?
It would certainly make the forums more enjoyable if I could filter the people who make a point to only post complaints, attacks and other sentiments that degrade the enjoyment of participating in these forums.
Thank you for your consideration.
  • @Cometheloser would the sense of humor button put whiney and depressing post through a hilarity filter?
  • Noted and asked for.
    The trolling is something we are *really* trying to get a handle on. I wish I could spend half the time I spend dealing with a few people doing more positive things like directing people to solutions or helping with real issues or questions.

    It's not easy when some feel the forum is a game in itself and just have the need to seek attention or be silly.

    We try.. we *REALLY* try. I can promise you that. :|
  • Thanks for the reply @BentWookiee. I appreciate what you and the other moderators do. Part of what inspired me to request this feature was seeing you have to clean out a bunch of garbage posts from a really good discussion thread.
    Cheers and thank you for your time
