New Feature - Block Users From Commenting « on: May 19, 2024, 10:51:10 PM » Author: Patrick
Previously you had the option to enable or disable comments on an album.  Now you'll have an additional field that applies when comments are enabled, a textbox for entering usernames to block.  For blocked users, adding comments to photos in the album will be disabled.  If a member is being a nuisance by consistently posting excessive comments or poor quality comments (e.g., off-topic, wildly inaccurate, or inflammatory), you may use this feature to prevent them from posting.

It's up to individual members to decide who they block and why they block them, but I ask that you all refrain from restricting commenting due to petty grievances or to limit discourse.  For example, if somebody posts contradictory opinions on your photos, blocking him or her because you don't agree is not a good reason.  For now we don't have specific rules for why you may or may not block a member.  Please use your best judgement.
