Blocking users could be easier.
« on: February 07, 2013, 06:36:11 AM »
Last time I was here and people suggested blocking/ignoring users, I had a look around and couldn't find it. This time I have noticed you need to go to your own profile and add their names to an ignore list. Most forums I have been on simply have a block user option on everyone's profile so you can just go to their profile and block them, surely I'm not the only person who didn't really know this list existed?

Let me get settled in before I start trying to add any new code. This feature is not available by default so I would have to find a plugin or create my own if I wanted to add something like this.

It is there, they just have to go to the users profile to block them ..... heck if they are too lazy to do that then they don't want to block them too bad.

Not really a case of laziness, it's more a case of people not knowing that it's there as most other forums have a block option on each users profile so when they don't see it there they don't think there is one.
