I understand y'all can't be too specific about how the scoring/rating system works here for membership (because you don't want people gaming the system, etc.). But is it possible to find out whether certain actions will NOT affect your score? Specifically, blocking large numbers of members?

Hover over the link that represents a member's name - either at the top of a post, or somewhere similar - and a popup window will appear. There's a box to check "Ignore User"; if you check that, the main page will shift to the "Ignored Members" page and ask you to (a) specify which types of info you want to ignore about the user (Posts, Messages, Signature, Mentions) and then (b) confirm to ignore that member.

I called it "blocking" earlier, but technically it's called "Ignoring".

Great post and good option. Unfortunately, it does not block their pictures on the main gallery pages, which I have asked if that can be included.

There are several types of scoring on the site. None of them are affected by blocking users.

Thanks! I figured not, but wanted to make sure. Happy to be proactive in not seeing content I don't want to see (when it comes routinely from particular individuals) but didn't want to jeopardize any "status level" in doing so.
