I just created http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/WEB-1074 that is - 'Blog comments need "Ignore this user" feature'
Please comment and vote it, if you agree this option may be useful in some cases. Here are some details about it. A relevant number of people use / abuse the blog comments. Some examples: * slighlty offensive / provoking statements against other residents * bashing Linden Lab's work * going off-topic * asking help instead of using Support * complaining about bugs instead of using PJIRA I want to be able to 'mute' (on my side) those blog users that I think are consistently abusing the comments system, and / or using it to flame and start unuseful arguments. This is already working on the forum - I need a similar feature on the blog. As a non-english mother tongue reader, having to read many comments makes the blogs reading very hard to me. Every tool that helps me to avoid unuseful comments is good. This can't be accomplished with technichal features, but - I found on the SL forums that "Ignore this user" is a very helpful feature. After I read 3-4 comments by the same user and I find that all of them are stupid, offensive, or simply 100% unuseful, I start "ignoring" that user. This can be good or bad on a subjective/individual point of view. But it's a good OPTION. I like to be ABLE TO do it. I'd like if I could do the same on the blogs. If I could hide comments by notorious trolls and whiners, I'd have a much better blog experience. Otherwise, I will probably have to stop reading blog comments. Note that this is not about moderation. I'm not asking for a more strict moderation about Linden Lab. I'm not saying those users are infringing on any policy. I just want to make my SL experience _more predictable_ (on blogs too). ;-) Opensource Obscure _______________________________________________ Policies and (un)subscribe information available here: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/SLDev Please read the policies before posting to keep unmoderated posting privileges
