    Would it be conceivable to implement some sort of blocking feature for PMs, so you can block receiving PMs from certain users ?

    Kinda like an email junk senders list ?

    Maybe create a new PM folder called blocked PMs or something ?

    Just a thought
    If in doubt, Google it.

    Most people do not read their pm's to begin with, so it would be a useless gesture.

    Good idea for pesky PMs.

    Or, if they're abusive PMs, you could just PM me or other mods with the PM quoted and that'll stop them for good

    Well, it won't affect them at all then, will it ?

    I *do* read my PMs and my current method is to just delete those from users whom I choose to ignore.

    Just wondering if this process could be automated a bit.
    If in doubt, Google it.

    We've banned several members for abusive PMs. They think because it's a PM that they can say anything they want and be as abusive as they want. Wrong

    If you block pm's though, some people will never work out their differences.

    Do whatever you want.

    I have used the pm to try and mend many fences.

    I can see some value to having it for nuisance PMs you get from people who go on and on and just won't let the exchange end already ....like from Baldrick ( j/k there boss )

    But I would never block PMs from abusive members because then I'd have to wait longer to ban them

    You are about the third or fourth person to tell me that.


    I guess I need to try harder to lighten up.

    I really mean no harm.

    Those of us that know you know this. It's just sometimes an unsuspecting newbie doesn't understand your intentions like we do.

    Not really much to worry about, mate
    If in doubt, Google it.

    bazooka is passionate about his subject matter. Sometimes he needs a "play nice" reminder here and there, but I'd rather have him around than someone who doesn't really give a flying fig whether or not their advice is sound

    Spot on, cappy

    ... That's not to say that every now and then he can't issue a dose of STFU when necessary though
    If in doubt, Google it.

    That's nothing. Cobra was as pissed as a mule at about this time yesterday and kept sending me videos of people bouncing basketballs

    Jim - I just have another dozen or so PMs to send you to finish what I wanted to say, then, I promise I'll stop for the rest of the week!

    Bazooka - I never said "bulldozer". I said "sledgehammer".

    Yep, by the end of the two hours skype call he was completely inebriated.

    I'd call that finishing the job

    That's when he's at his finest Having a yank and an aussie chattering on about some trivial pap in the background stimulates certain brain centers in Cobra. He can focus more clearly. Add a shot or two of fine Scottish whisky to the equation, and he's da pimp
