New moderation feature - banning from individual threads

[TJ]

Hi all,

After a huge rise recently in complaints about individual posters inside threads that were causing issues for many others, we have now introduced the ability to ban individuals from threads only, as opposed to the entire forum.

This means you wont be able to read or post it in any more if you get banned from it, while still being able to see the rest of the forum as per normal.

Hopefully this helps out in the overall moderation of the forum.

Thanks.

AFL thread likes this!

Political, religious and police threads will now be empty.

[TJ]

No not really.

We encourage healthy debate.

Spouting utter bullshit that does nothing to benefit threads on a consistent basis will see this feature used.

I predict there'll be a few new threads popping up shortly by clueless muppets asking "where did [thread name] go, who deleted it?"

You can still see the thread title if you're banned from it. You just can't read or post to it, instead getting a "you have been removed from this discussion" message.

The AFL thread will be my testing ground xox
