Skurai Filter

This suggestion is comparable to that of a spam filter. There should be an option implemented that would allow the creator of a thread the option to not allow certain members in the thread to stop any derailment of discussion. The Skurai Filter would work efficiently, and should only be allowed in areas where real discussions are to take place.

I can list examples if needed.


/discuss.

Motion seconded.

I'd rather it be give the owner of a thread the option to remove posts from their thread, instead of just outright denying the posts. Otherwise, you're not even giving the person a chance to post productively.

In his example, he has over 1,000 posts and none of which have been productive. I like denying access all together. Censorship ftw.

I've deleted some of his posts in semi-serious threads before. Notify me if he has de-railed a decent topic of discussion.

Honestly, I like this idea. Mostly because it's named after me.

Honestly I'd thought I was getting better with staying on topic at least, or with at least keeping the conversation going. But, if not, then... shoot. But K_A is right, everyone needs a chance.
Maybe the Filter could only be used after a poster posts in the thread, and judging by that post you can decide to filter it or not.

Like a YouTube type system? We could have Thumbs up and Thumbs Down for each post and if one post is able to get 5 tumbs down then the post will be marked for deletion and the moderators would have to approve?

Well, I guess so...
But really, the whole down thumbs get deleted... I dunno... I mean, alot of the time, fail posts keep the thread going, y'know? Without fail, it's hard to tell what win is, yeah?

I agree with this.

I agree with this.

This could be easy to code.
An example might look like:

Exactly like that would be fine.

+1 for Jess. /cheer?
