Click on the offending persons name on the left side of their post and in the drop down click Block This Member

But that's like getting up every 5min when watching a movie. Perty soon, you're lost because you missed half the content!
Maaaybe, that's where some of these weird responses come from, folks that can't see half the post before they chime in??

These member blocking threads can be humorous! Below is my contribution.

When I joined the forum, I blocked all the moderators. I can post whatever I want, they can't read it, can't delete my posts.

Shoooot, I think sometimes I've blocked myself...then I realize it's just another deleted post! LOL

Unless I did it wrong, I tried this once with a poster I found virulently offensive. But it blocked the whole thread the offending poster contributed to. Gave it up as a bad idea, just started ignoring the pestiferous poster and life has moved on. [emoticon]

Blocking them means you don't see their posts. However they do see your posts.

I think I have two posters blocked. Because nothing they have say is ever worth reading.

The tough ones are those that like to pick fights but otherwise provide knowledgeable and useful information. You lose the good stuff if you block them. But if you don't block them, you have to wade through their trollish behavior.

Nickel?

You mean there’s somebody older than me here?

Very highly guarded secret! It would cost you a dime to find out. If you are a betting man, you understand that is 1K.
