This is such good concept... just leave it to programmers with the slightest amount of free time to invent a "win" button!

I will try this out asap.
Quick question though; Where do we add more people to block, in the code?



After 'Muted'?

Say, I wanted to block the following people (for example):

-Muted
-Ghot
-JuicyFruitSweet
-Urbanshaft
(and possibly others)

Would I write(?):

Codevar regexString = prompt('Please set the regular expression used to select users to automatically hide (or blank not to hide any).','Muted');

try this:



i haven't really looked at the script so it may not work

I'm assuming you don't know regular expressions...

The first time you run the script, it will ask you for the regular express you would like to use to automatically filter people.  If you want to do more, you have to regex them together in the text box with a '|'.  Which means, your question would be something like:

This option can be changed at any time by selecting Tools>Greasemonkey>User Script Commands>Set D2jsp Forums Autohide


This won't work, since I build a regexp literal from the string, whereas the /.../ statement tells Javascript to build a regexp literal.  So, those slashes are interpreted as actual regexp code, which is not what you want to happen.

Yeah you're right I don't... just some java and html, java looks similar to this, but I don't even know what language this is written in lol.

Anyway, when my motherboard is repaired, I will try this out on my computer with an actual mouse.

It's Javascript, which, while it bears a resemblance to Java and is often confused with it, is not related to Java.

I was thinking: would it be a good idea to maintain a system like AdBlock for annoying users?  A community system for filtering out content, that is.  I mean, it would basically be a community ban system if enough people used the extension.

EDIT: Also works in Firefox 3.5.

I see horrible abuse with this without severely limiting who can modify the list.  Though, hiding scammer/locked/warned accounts would be a good start and if in theory, everyone used this, then those tags would carry more heft than they do now. 

I just noticed PENandPAPER would be hidden with this...

Another alternative would be to highlight their posts in light red or something.  You could also highlight trusted users with green, etc...

and it could also shoot fireworks.
