Is there any way to block authors from the story listings pages? There are some authors on this site (none of them on this board) who bug the living bejesus out of me, and I think it would be better for my mental health if I never even saw their submissions.
 
3 to 7 days unless there is a contest going on, in which case it takes a week longer. Except that now you've asked the "Question"... Oops...

No.
 
We want names.

Whose writing could be so bad that just the titles of the stories induce nosebleed?

Yes there is but fortunately or unfortunately, whichever way you look at it, the site owners believe in free speech so it won't be happening.

I wonder if I'm on his list :eek:

The greatest censor is yourself...just because they are there doesn't mean you have to read them.

I know I'm on his list...


Now run along and let us play.


Oh, welcome to the AH.

:cool:
 
No, it's none of you guys.

One of them is Samuelx.

His stories are boring, full of body parts and measurements, repetitive (even of his earlier stories), and rather racist. (African-Americans can be racist too.) He has to submit one or more every day. And I swear he submits them at 12:01 am so his submissions can be first in line for the day.

And another one is He Who Cannot Be Named. (I've been lurking on this board for a long time.)
 
Btw

I think some of you misunderstood me.

I am not seeking to have Samuelx stopped from submitting but I am looking for a feature like the "ignore" on this BB for the story listings.

There you go...just ignore them, the mind is a wonderful thing, don't waste it on those you don't like.

There are those that I refuse to read so I just don't...seeing their name sometimes upsets me but then I move on to other things and completely forget about them.

one a day? good lord, what an output!
 
OK, I have to be devil's advocate here.

Are you sure that Fatbarker isn't an alt of SamuelX trying to get even more people to read his stories.......co's let's face it, don't try and kid me we aren't all now curious to read one (or more) of Sam's stories just to see what the problem is?

*blink*

;)
 
You can be DAMN sure

that I am not an alt of his. I live in MO, he in MA. I'm white, he's black.
 
I think that if you use firefox , there's a newish plugin called greasemonkey. it utilises little java scrip t bits so that you can control things that sites normally control. I haven't messed with it much, but it might be able to block specific words who knows?

You must have been. I've been here since Saddam roamed free, and I have no idea who you're talking about.
 
I have to agree with the others - self censorship is the only way 888,253 people can get along together and still say what they want.

888,253 seems to be the number of users registered on .lit...
