How do I block In-State Rivals forum?

[Farnsworth]

Easy enough....just don't open the threads.
It's not rocket science...

Gaming forum died because a few people coulnt handle a single mafia thread on the front page, but half the new posts being rivals/politics is fine?

Bring back gaming!!!!!

Send a PM to CW. If he doesn’t respond within a couple hours, start a thread asking if CW received your PM

This doesn't happen nearly enough.

I opted out as trying to ignore it wasn't working...too easy to get caught in really stupid discussions. The decent Iowa fans started piling on and it mixed badly with actual trolls.

Gonna report any of Iowa fans trolling actual ISU discussion.

You questioned my ability or intelligence to ignore messages. Feathers ruffled I guess. Again, I came on the right forum to ask why a feature didn't work. You obviously feel I should just bypass. Not sure what you felt you were accomplishing. Guess you need to give your opinion on every topic.

Meh. The point of message boards is offering opinions, right or wrong.
You're pissed because of an offhand comment. Have fun with that.

I'm okay with that.

It would be great if there were an option to keep ISR posts from appearing in lists of new/recent posts without actually fully banning yourself from the board. I don't want all those posts clogging the feed every time I check in but I'd like to preserve the option to visit that board if I choose to.

I second this. I removed ISR forum a few months back because I was tired of the posts clogging up feed. I still wouldn’t mind visiting the forum from time to time and seeing if there are any thread titles worth reading.

Another solution to this would be the ability to block individual threads. If that were available I would probably opt in to ISR but block the annoying threads. If I had a dollar for every time "Iowa Basketball is a mid-major roster" popped up with a recent post, I could build the bridge over University Blvd myself.

My solution to this is to bookmark the ISR forum then open it in a private browser window (where I'm not logged in to CF) if I ever want to view it.
