Blocking a member would only work for the member blocking you. Everyone else would see your post.

Are you guys planning to target the 12-18 year old demographic here by any chance? Block an user first, maybe next specify another member as a BFF, and maybe a un-heart button too.

I was thinking we could have a "selfie" button for those on laptops that would automatically upload a selfie to us, and instagram, and snapchat, and hipchat, and then tweet a random line of code from their current IDE.

Sounds good. I'm guessing this will include the notification of a member who is being block. So that he/she will refrain further comments incluiding any future problem on the blocker member. If not I suggest to be considered like that.
I also suggest to any member to have this ability. Or else, members who are mature enough, ego less, not being so proud having points and more especially who do not pimp around for other member, have existing >=15 or more years and off course the CP staffs.

No: blocking someone would not send them an email saying "you are blocked". That would be counterproductive.

So why I spent my time sending and composing few statements while I know the member blocking me regardless of the content.
For example. Suppose my recent reply to Mike Hankey was blocked, but someone who has sent similar reply being replied. How that I feel? It might be little racey. Just saying.

You're missing the point.
This isn't for your benefit. It's so people who are being annoyed by other people can tune them out and enjoy silence. They aren't trying to educate, or make feel bad, or make feel good, or make the person feel anything.
They just don't want to see their messages.

Ok fair enough, though I keep the the question as is. What about the next question. Who is capable of having this feature. I've few private emails that is sent to me. I can send you. I want to block those members.

You don't need to send anything, just wait until the feature is released (if decided to). Then you can block them yourself

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Sometimes one comes across an old post from a familiar name. When checking their profile it would be helpful to see quickly when they were last active. This can be done by checking messages, comments etc but if this were shown directly on the profile it would be helpful.

Maybe put the date the last activity in the indicated category (messages, articles, comments, etc).

That would work, but one unified "last activity" time would be better.

I'm not sure how it would be helpful.

For example there is a popular article posted in 2007 still receiving messages where the author has passed away some years ago. The author has not posted since 2008. Going to the profile to find that out is useful.
There have been other questions about members in the lounge. Again seeing when they were last active gives some clue.
When a regular contributer seems absent from a forum one may ask "when were they last here or anywhere".
[edit] After more thought when they were last logged in would be the real clincher.

In the past couple of days, I've found a few replies to my forum messages which haven't appeared in the notifications list. Is there a bug lurking somewhere?

Hmm - could be a database load issue. Our system for this is a little old and doesn't retry (or queue) notification messages. If there's a glitch right at the time it tries to store a notification then it's screams are lost in the void...

I just had a message moderated in the lounge and noticed that I was directed to the first page of the lounge instead of the page of the message I was replying to.
A minor bug, to be sure, but probably not intended behavior.
|

|

Can you please clarify?
You posted a message that went straight into the moderation queue and instead of being sent back to the message you were responding to, you went to the lounge homepage?
cheers

Yes, that is precisely what happened.
When I posted the message, I immediately received email notification that it had been put into the moderation queue, and was directed to the lounge homepage instead of the message to which I was replying.

Yes, thank you for whatever you did. It is accessible now.

Looks like digimanus left some unclosed HTML in his/her comment that has messed up the page.

Strange Behaviour++: While signed in on CP, I see only the deleted comment of digimanus. Not signed in, I see three answers. But an answer from you I don't see.
(Same for IE11 and GoogleChrome).
