16. A forum/group host can block you, but all that does is block you from posting

it doesn't affect the visibility of the group's threads.

Trashing this group and putting some individuals on Ignore should make their threads and (in the latter case) their individual replies invisible, but as someone pointed out, the threads will still show up in the Greatest Threads and Trending boxes on the home page. I sure wish there was a way to hide those from view.

I don't know what happens on the Greatest Threads page. Or the Latest Threads page. I suppose I could experiment.

FWIW, there's apparently only one group host of pets, Stinky The Clown (click the About This Group button). The other host is TorchTheWitch who hasn't posted since 2016.

Apologies as I'm not well versed w/ commuters so I guess I still don't understand. Deuxcents Nov 2022 #6

Thanks. I don't understand it either really. mahina Nov 2022 #7

I think you can ignore a person and trash a forum but posts will still appear on trending/greatest Siwsan Nov 2022 #9

You're in Schrodinger's Group? WheelWalker Nov 2022 #10

HA! Seems so mahina Nov 2022 #11

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking for. ShazzieB Nov 2022 #13

Thanks. I've trashed the forum many times to no avail. mahina Nov 2022 #14

In that case, I'd recommend trying the Ask the Administrators link I posted. ShazzieB Nov 2022 #15

I already tried that mahina Nov 2022 #20
