   Or do you mean on a person-by-person basis? That would be a bit more work.

That’s an interesting point -- I think it would preserve the freedom for those who use it responsibly, and enable you to prevent abusers from continuing to abuse the privilege.

I meant disabling the viewing of it on a person-by-person basis...not disabling their ability to post that way.

So, does that mean that for example:

• I, Tim Courtney, can see that poster John Doe is annoying me, and flip a switch so LUGNET doesn’t show me FTX formatting when I read his posts

or

• You, Todd Lehman (or another admin), can see that John Doe is abusing the system, and have the LUGNET server not show FTX formatting on any of his posts (while the server will continue to accept posts by him which include FTX, they won’t display them for anyone)

?

(...) my guess is that I choose not to see any FTX formatting, ever, by anyone. That seems the easiest to implement. Dan (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)

(...) Neither... I meant: You, Tim Courtney, could disable viewing of all FTX messages. Other people would still see FTX messages. But the other two options might be possibilities. (Although I'd hate to do the second one.) --Todd (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, FTX)
