Re^4: Having our anonymous cake and eating it too (hide hiding ignore ignoring nodes posts by anonymous monk)

"we can't change behavior via software; what should each user be allowed to control to improve their experience instead?"

As a user with an account , you can today, through the power of css, ignore any author you wish ... maybe this should be made more easily available?

from the memory of Blocking users

.node-from-NNNNNN           { display: none; } /* Newest nodes (and ot
+hers?) */
#id-9488 .auth-NNNNNN       { display: none; } /* Worst nodes  */
#id-397425 .nnt-auth-NNNNNN { display: none; } /* RAT */
[download]

So to ignore all of my legion

/* ignore posts by Anonymous Monk */
.node-from-961           { display: none; } /* Newest nodes (and other
+s?) */
#id-9488 .auth-961       { display: none; } /* Worst nodes  */
#id-397425 .nnt-auth-961 { display: none; } /* RAT */

Should be noted that any subtree of nodes will be deleted, i.e. any following discussion disappears. It also has the effect that nodes may reappear in RAT showing no replies, if an ignored user answers. If this bothers you, change RAT-style viewing mode "Minimal Nodes" (top of RAT page) The CSS in Display Settings can be simplified to allow multiple monks to be ignored at the same time `/* START IGNORES / / another monk / / ... / , / Anonymous Monk / .node-from-961, / Newest nodes / #id-9488 .auth-961, / Worst nodes / #id-397425 .nnt-auth-961 / RAT / { display: none; } / style / / END IGNORES */` [download] note the missing comma only in the last line (RAT here) For testing use something like `{ background: #ffffe8; color: red; }` instead of "display none".

  ,

     #id-9488 .auth-961,       /* Worst nodes  */
     #id-397425 .nnt-auth-961  /* RAT */

  { display: none; }           /* style */

/* END IGNORES */

For testing use something like { background: #ffffe8; color: red; } instead of "display none".
