Re: Message / User filtering

Are you talking about ignoring chat messages from other nodes, or messages posted on the sub-board? If it's messages from other nodes, Synchronet
I was thinking about ignoring messages in a sub-board.
Example user case: Somebody in some sub that is always sharing
information about some disease he has in his feet, and posts an
update everyday. I would not ban a person like this, but if I
find his feet uninteresting, I would like to filter this person
out so his feet updates don't pollute my New Messages scan.
Actual user case that prompted me to ask this question:
Somebody in the Fidonet -> Politics Unlimited sub is
disrespectful and I would say he is there to pick up fights
rather than have a healthy talk, but I don't think it is bad
enough for a total ban. Which means I'd like to have the option
to ignore sub messages from him without involving a sysop.
There's also the twit list, but that amounts to the sysop putting a ban in place, which you said isn't enough..
The twit list sounds like overkill to me.
