    Prevent a thread from appearing in the thread list.

    Would be useful for forums with large amount of stickies that have been read.

    Could have an "hide unless updated" option?

    +1 on this idea, nice idea this. Maybe make it so that you have to have x amount of posts before you can do it though - prevent someone with 2 posts blocking all the rules without reading them (not that they read them anyway .. but you know .. )

    Sounds good.

    What'd also be handy is if when you stick someone on ignore, threads they post don't appear.

    The poor database.

    It's a theoretically simple one which requires another table...

    select * from thread where ..... threadid NOT IN (select threadid from userignoredthread WHERE userid = $userid)

    It's a little bit more overhead on one of the heaviest-used queries though.

    Afaik, threads by people you've ignored, don't appear.

    Edit: Actually, they do.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
