Feature Request: user filter

Perhaps next time you speak to your web monkey, how about a button to hide posts by the occasional obstructive board member?

Karma Module

Tue, 2008-10-14 16:56

This module will keep track of your users' karma using the fantastic VotingAPI.
It does so by assigning one vote per user, where the vote is the user's karma.

 

How does karma work?
--------------------
So, if user 99 for example writes 10 comments, and they all get votes > 0,
the person's karma will stay positive. Vice versa, if user 98 has 10 comments
and they are all flamebaits which get votes < 0, the person's karma will be
negative.

This assumes that rating can be < 0.

Now... some modules work differently, and only allow positive voting (for
example rating from 1 to 10 etc.). This module will work in those cases
too: since karma expires (meaning that only content newer than N days will be
considered for karma), the users' karma will eventually stabilise.

 

 

When a users karma reaches a certain negative level I will set it to automatic ban with notification so I can then deal with the situation.  Sound good?

Except for enforcing the veracity of such votes :p

Is the system really all that necessary though?

Hi Ya,

I'd like to see a "Mark All Read" button.  That way I could keep up with where I'm up to without having to actually open each and every thread even when it is topic I'm not interested in.

Cheers.
