    I do it mentally. After looking for it now I see there's an ignore button in profiles. It's next to the message button in profiles. Looks like it isn't a perfect block feature.

    Here's a quick link for blocking the most annoying poster I've seen on this board

    "If" you block him this ^^^ way, does it also block his original posts, too? Blocking using @dawgnms ' way, blocks comments but not OP. Just curious.

    If it does not block earlier posts the admin would have to tweak it. If I understand what y all are saying is that it blocks posts from now on and not previous posts...

    My guess it that WC’s new goal will have to be to try to get people to quote him in their replies. That way all these people putting him on ignore, they’ll still see what he says!

    I think when they say “original posts” they mean when he starts a thread. OP is a common acronym you’ll see that means original post or original poster. It refers to the post that started the thread or the user that started the thread.

    I responded to a post that read as silly and paranoid.
    You think I actually care enough to form some silly strategy ?

    I read, I respond, it ain't rocket surgery.

    I realize this is a lot like asking Trump why he is worth so much money. But if that is all you are doing, why are you so hated here?

    Ask the haters.
    I suspect it's because I don't hesitate to post contrary views and I'm very good at doing so.
