Personal bans/Customer Service Rep

Is it possible to add a feature that allows us as individual users of the forum to ignore posts from other users? Maybe some button that says 'Ignore This User'
That way you don't have to worry about us hollering to ban someone and we can ignore the idiots like MotoF150 and I Fly.

Fortunately or unfortunately no there is not a option for a normal user to do that. I can only imagine the gong show that would emerge from people banning each other and one day I'd log into the forum to find myself the only one here...
I and my staff have chatted with both those members and we are watching them and they know to be on their best behavior. As they are both adults I do think they follow the mature path and do that.
As always, my door (aka PM) is always open and you can write me anytime you like. I want to see the forum as friendly for all as possible.
Mike.

Actually some forums have it set up so that when you scroll over a specific persons post all you see is:
<You have chosen not to view this persons posts. This can be changed in your profile>
It's quite nice really.

You will no longer have to worry about I Fly, that member's account has been disabled due to violation to the terms and conditions by showing a basic lack of respect for fellow community forum members.

How about a link on each post to notify a moderator? I looked for such a link recently to notify a moderator re Ifly but finally gave up looking due to time constraints.

My PM door is always open, I'm here full time so I can get back to you pretty much right away if you ever need me. Just click to PM me or my PM button on one of my many many messages:
http://totalmotorcycle.com/BBS/privmsg. ... e=post&u=2
It's the quickest and K.I.S.S. method.

LOL!!
Thanks Sevulturus for volunteering to take over getting complaint PM's, very kind of you to step up and say, "I'd love to take the job of customer service rep!"
So, just click here:
privmsg.php?mode=post&u=833
J/K
Do send them to me, not Sevulturus!

No I'll do it. I swear, I've got all my options laid out already.
1) I'm not here right now, leave a message after the click
2) Stop crying
3) Get a job
4) You whine like baby girl *Russian accent*
5) You're correct, but I'm not going to do anything about it
6) Hit him back
7) Hit him back first
Then it's just a simple copy n paste to fit in whichever applies to the problem in question. I'd be great at this!
