Ban Users From A Thread

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

I have added a new feature which allows members to be banned from certain threads. Although the usage of this functionality will be extremely limited, please pm me if you feel it would be appropiate to ban certain members from replying to particular threads.

 

Reasons? The user might just be an ass. The user is creating hostility. The user is killing the thread. All sorts of reasons for this features. Thanks.

I'm waiting for Vbulletin to create an add on that will make everybody get along and be equally mature. A bit of a pipe dream but I am a dreamer. ;) :o

 

Is this something only setup for admins I would presume?

 

Have a good one James.

Interesting feature. I've been witness to some cases (on other forums) where such a function would've been greatly appreciated by many.

 

From what I've seen, there'll be little need for that on TL... very impressed with the way you guys handle the site :thumbs up:

If someone is behaving badly enough to be banned from a thread, their reaction and nature will be to behave badly elsewhere. I would expect complications and additional work if the mods have to apply to an administrator for banning rights.

Just ban the baddies if a warning goes unheeded, otherwise you could end up like t2w with rules and regulations several pages long and constantly challenged.

I've only glanced at a few threads here but it seems pretty clean so either the mods are good or the Barbarians haven't arrived at the gates yet :)

yoo-hoo! nice gates you got here. :)

 

the tendency, from the "other site", is that a baddie would simply start a new thread to continue the fight. or stalk them across other threads.

if someone is acting badly, they shouldnt be allowed to post anywhere on the site. ie, warning, then a short ban.

its the difference between locking someone up, or imposing an injunction.

better to have few rules enforced ruthlessly, rather than many rules with ambiguity.

 

yes, agree with FW, better behaved people here, so these issues should be pretty much unnecessary.

I actually think this is a pretty good facility (assuming it doesn't get too onerous for admins). With the caveat that if someone keeps getting banned from threads I guess better to just boot them off altogether.

Here on TL there are so many opinions and styles that we can't all agree. If someone brings good info to the table for MP for example but hates Wyckoff, and they stir the pot in that thread its a good banning tool. If they stir the pot all over though they should be banned altogether. :)

 

LMAO at Ed "I'll get my coat" :o

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful. Remember, sometimes what you throw in the garbage is something that someone wishes ever to have.” – ElZee, Quora   Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
