Would like to prevent selected user/users from posting in thread.

It would be nice if the author of a post could block a troll(or trolls) from ruining legitimate topics with their non-sense.  It could work in concert with the ignore function, that would make it easy to implement on the server side as well as for the users to manage.

I don't go to the unmoderated forum anymore either. I just thought it would be cool to have conversations without the same idiots injecting their BS. Sure I can(and do) ignore them when they do their crap, but that is still having to put up with them. It's just another form of it.

OP is too overly sensitive I've been on BR.com longer than most and don't post a lot and ignore the basic trolls.  Ignore move on.

Problem with that is most of the perpetrators who decry the state of the forum are in the forum daily doing the very thing they complain about.  Some find "internet religion" so to speak and walk away but we are still stuck the with ones that don't.  Unless one wants to walk away themself, ignore and move on is the rule of the day as stated earlier.  Either that or moderate it again.
