BootmanLA Posted September 7, 2020 Report Share Posted September 7, 2020 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, it does not block their pictures on the main gallery pages, which I have asked if that can be included. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators rawTOP Posted September 9, 2020 Administrators Report Share Posted September 9, 2020 There are several types of scoring on the site. None of them are affected by blocking users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
