maltesefalcon Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Been a member and content contributor for some time now. This week I noticed that posts from one member (unnamed for now) will not open. Not Authorized apparently. Begs the question... can members exclude other members from reading their posts or is this done by admin/mods? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Avataг Posted September 11, 2019 Moderators Share Posted September 11, 2019 There's the ignore function: https://curvage.org/forum/index.php?/ignore/ Quote Ignoring a user allows you to block some or all of their content from showing. Users are not notified that you are ignoring them. 3 hours ago, maltesefalcon said: can members exclude other members from reading their posts or is this done by admin/mods? No, members can't exclude other members from reading their posts. The board staff has no interest in hindering especially you from viewing some threads. Maybe you want to PM me the member's name and links to said threads so we can further investigate the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Avataг Posted September 11, 2019 Moderators Share Posted September 11, 2019 Damn, @S77, even with your screenshot, it took me ages to find where that setting is. It's under "topics", no wonder I didn't get this was where one can block others from watching one's content. How about renaming the feature from "topics" to "blocked users"? @maltesefalcon: I'm sorry I gave you the wrong information and hope that your question has been answered by S77's interference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S77 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 It only blocks folks from viewing your "topics" There are other settings for different types of blocks. Plus it's not really something we want everyone using. It's there if we need to direct someone to it. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maltesefalcon Posted September 15, 2019 Author Share Posted September 15, 2019 Just for the sake of closure on this, I did PM the member. It was not a glitch-he locked me out. No biggie lots of other fine posts to see. Avataг 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest high Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Yes, I believe I know the member you speak of and he locked me out of his threads, too. Not a big deal since he's created a lot of division here and if I never see anything from him again, I"m OK with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maltesefalcon Posted October 2, 2019 Author Share Posted October 2, 2019 After some thought I am wondering if the Admin/Mods would consider disabling this "feature". Lets say member A starts a thread. Then member B (me) posts some additional content to that thread, not just comments. Then member A blocks me. Now I can't see his thread, which also traps content which I posted myself. So I can't view my own post, or any followup comments. Does that seem fair? There is already an ignore setting if you don't wish to see anything by a specific member. There are also protocols to ban harrassment and abuse. is that not enough?
