Is there anyway I can hide, automatically, posts with the name Bachman, Palin and
O'Donnell in the title line?

I think it would make it easier to navigate around.

I appreciate other people taking the time to peer into the dark psyche of these, these Harpies, but I have a disease that could take me away at anytime and I would be sorely disappointed if one of my last images in this world would be of those cackling publicity hounds...

Oh the pain, the pain, the pain....

2. Wouldn't that be wonderful? I'm sure many DUers would love to have such a feature.
DU has been obsessed with Palin from the day McCain chose her. Hiding threads by a keyword would be great.

12. Nope.. not the ATA.. (That was here waaay back in 2001-2-3)
Edited on Sun Feb-13-11 06:28 PM by SoCalDem
I meant the "hide by keyword" :rofl:

ATA was great back then, but it got a bit too silly & they 86ed it:evilgrin: we were naughty & it went a way for a long time

6. funny how the ability to search and exclude on one single....
little word, one little simple single 3-letter word..... would automatically make DU a better experience for so many. ;)

5. Aw...things is tough all over!
Actually, such a feature would be useful.

Maybe it'll happen in Version 3, which will happen eventually...

:D

7. The Palin ones are the worst
Every day they are posting some new crap about her, they should devote a forum to Palin and those that like to post daily threads about her.

Palin free zone would be nice.

9. A somewhat crude workaround ...
is to put the OP on ignore.

Christine or Lawrence?

Oh and congrats on starting another Palin thread.

15. The witch is the which I was referring too..
That should have been quite obvious.

I guess tongue in cheek is not to your liking.

Oh what would you have done had Oscar Wilde posted on this board.

14. I would love to have a feature like that
doing them one by one is so time consuming.

16. I've asked for a hide thread by keyword feature several times
The response I got on the Ask/Admins forum was "someday perhaps, but not soon."

18. What you could do is press Ctrl+F and locate the threads with those names,
highlight all and hide thread. It isn't automatic, kind of a pain, but the same end result.
