    Simple idea.

    If you have someone on your ignore list and you start a thread, they are unable to post in the thread.

    Over time, the more a person shows up on ignore lists, the less they are allowed to post.

    For instance, I could start a discussion about Tracy McGrady. Since Tinman is on my ignore list, he would not be able to post in the thread.

    LOL.

    You're the biggest delusional homer and kool aider in the GARM. You have so many of the prominent CF posters on ignore that you'll be talking to yourself. That would be hilarious.

    Eh, not really feeling it man.

    We need people like this guy above to keep things in line ^

    The GARM will sound like a bunch of people patting each other on the back: a lot of echoes in a closed box.

    Nobody needs that guy around, and here is an example why:

    And accuses me of being a homer.

    Did you get this idea from Facebook,,,like how you can block people from your timeline. I assume you have blocked tinman from commenting on your facebook status.

    Well, it is your timeline, a crafted view for no one but you. But a thread on a message board is not actually meant for just you to read the comments you want to allow.

    You want to ban people from your threads? Ignoring their posts isn't enough.

    Giving people any power to ban where ppl can post is off-the-charts, weird feedback for Clutch to mull over.

    It's unprecedented user power
    It's unbridled enthusiasm for control
    It's fear of social interaction
    It's oppressive stifling imperious peremptory censorship by the masses
    It's known to cause use of redundant adjectives
    It's Facebook gone mad
    It's outrageous
    It's racist
    It's the singularity

    and I'm offended

    No Clutch isn't going to go out of his way to silence everyone you disagree with.

    Lock this thread.

    If you are already ignoring the poster, why do you want to ban him/her from posting anywhere? You are essentially saying ignoring is not enough. You must be able to control where the ignored people can post.

    We have all said some really stupid, stupid stuff on here (insert the infamous CH Harden for Love trade).

    I, very often, disagree with what he is saying. But I do agree every now and then (more than the "broken clock"), so I wouldn't want him banned on a thread you created. Your gain is my loss. Who you have on the ignore list, I may want to read.

    If a guy is a complete troll, we will report him, and he will get banned. Life goes on.
