>>There are times I'm just after "information" and I'd like the ability to be selective. For example, threads that have a 100 posts or more a day are obvious examples of ones I would like to filter.<< I also navigate threads for information and would like to see enhancements directed towards this capability. I support Spots concept of viewing five or more posts in advance with one to three lines of the post showing for review. This way you could leap forward just choosing the posts you want to read. I would use this methodology for threads like the Intel thread. The "view replies" option has given us a good research tool. I use this function in conjunction with the search tools. This has given us a great tool for quickly moving forward through a thread on a specific topic. This capability will be enhanced when ( take your time Brad) the search functions are developed. I would support the "ignore poster" idea if it were on a delay basis (24 hrs?). This would not effect the existing flow of information on a thread and it would help those of us who navigate a thread for information. Regards Zeuspaul
