Re^4: Having our anonymous cake and eating it too (hide hiding ignore ignoring nodes posts by anonymous monk)

"we can't change behavior via software; what should each user be allowed to control to improve their experience instead?"

As a user with an account , you can today, through the power of css, ignore any author you wish ... maybe this should be made more easily available?

from the memory of Blocking users

.node-from-NNNNNN           { display: none; } /* Newest nodes (and ot
+hers?) */
#id-9488 .auth-NNNNNN       { display: none; } /* Worst nodes  */
#id-397425 .nnt-auth-NNNNNN { display: none; } /* RAT */

So to ignore all of my legion

/* ignore posts by Anonymous Monk */
.node-from-961           { display: none; } /* Newest nodes (and other
+s?) */
#id-9488 .auth-961       { display: none; } /* Worst nodes  */
#id-397425 .nnt-auth-961 { display: none; } /* RAT */

It also has the effect that nodes may reappear in RAT showing no replies, if an ignored user answers. If this bothers you, change RAT-style viewing mode "Minimal Nodes" (top of RAT page)

The CSS in Display Settings can be simplified to allow multiple monks to be ignored at the same time

/* START IGNORES */

  /* another monk */
     /* ... */

  ,

  /* Anonymous Monk */
     .node-from-961,           /* Newest nodes */
     #id-9488 .auth-961,       /* Worst nodes  */
     #id-397425 .nnt-auth-961  /* RAT */

  { display: none; }           /* style */

/* END IGNORES */

note the missing comma only in the last line (RAT here)

For testing use something like { background: #ffffe8; color: red; } instead of "display none".
