Check boxes, and other ideas that won't work.

I oppose the idea of the filter or kill-file. If we make it too easy to ignore contributors, the threads won't be threads anymore.

If they're implemented, I doubt I'd use them. I'm managing to read all of the threads I'm interested in... sometimes there are idiots, but you need to read them so you can understand what those who respond to them are saying. And sometimes even the idiots post useful info.

I never post off-topic (not true, but I want people). I'm never opinionated or derogatory, except maybe in the joke threads or something, where such things are allowed by charter. Check boxes for such probably won't work.

I've been trying to give every one of my posts a title, in the first line or the first few words. Saves a lot of trouble.... I recommend it to everyone.
