No Block for Forums?

Recommended Posts

On these Nexus forums, someone just made a very aggressive comment to me and an outright hostile one to someone else, so I figured I'd just block them so as not to see them anymore. But after searching I couldn't find an option for blocking them.

Eventually I found a tiny block button in the "About" tab of their profile, but clicking it did nothing for the forums. Am I overlooking something, or is there no Block feature on the forums?

I'd rather just block than escalate with a reply or asking for moderation. Thanks.

Mouseover their picture on any post and choose the "ignore" option on the popup menu.

Oh, I never would have found that without your telling me. Thanks! I have my PC set to around 300% text magnification plus another 200% or so in the browser, so the ignore option has always been off the screen (at least on Edge browser it doesn't scale with my browser settings). But I was able to scroll down and find Ignore. Thanks again! Now I can browse with peace. I like peace.

(I'm visually impaired so use a 55" monitor and a lot of magnification to help me figure out what people type.)

I'm adding a screen shot for reference to show the Ignore button isn't visible without knowing it's there in advance and scrolling down.

The other way to do it is to click on your name in the upper right to open the menu and select the "ignored users" option directly.   You can then enter a name of someone you want to add and it will display a list of names that match so you can select the right person.
