Is there a way that someone could be blocked from posting on a particular topic?

Would be a bit crap if a decent OP gets locked due to a few people dragging it down. It would be quite good if the OP could warn and bar someone from posting on their thread if they have been given ample chance to change their behaviour.

Some folk could deliberately post insults to have a thread they do not like closed down.

I believe this is an option open to the mods.

If they were blocked from a thread, they would just jump all over other threads moaning that they're blocked and making the point anyway, derailing even more threads in the process, so it would just end up worse. :(

Some great tips in there on how to get your threads locked, cheers mate.

This may result in some short term pain, but ultimately I think we will gain from it. Posters who deliberately post insults to have threads locked will very quickly be banned, so that problem will go away. Others will see that we are serious and rethink their actions.

We have tried deleting offending posts, temp banning repeat offenders, etc but these are all sticking plasters which do not solve the problem. The same could be said of banning posters from threads, they can (as govanblue says above) just move to another thread and ruin that as well.

If some posters are unable to abide by these rules, the forum will be better off without them. If an OP is worth re-posting it can be re-posted following the locking of the original (tu)

I'd like to see them try such insubordinate behaviour. :lol:
