Ignorance Is Bliss

Thanks to the hard work of our wonderful technical bods, registered EuroGamer users can now block posts from specific people, a feature which has been one of the most widely requested amongst our regular readers. If somebody annoys you, just hit the "ignore poster" button next to their name and you won't ever have to read another comment from them. If you have a change of heart, you can unblock people from the "edit profile" page, where you also have the option to ignore every post made by non-registered users. All of these features obviously only work when you are logged in. As part of the changes, we have also posted guidelines on the use of the comments system. The short version is that racism, personal abuse, excessive swearing, requests for CD keys or warez, potentially libellous comments and reposting of copyrighted material are not tolerated on EuroGamer. Any posts which break these rules will be deleted by our staff as soon as they are spotted, and repeat offenders may have their user account closed or (in extreme cases) be blocked from the site. As always, any feedback on the latest changes and suggestions for other site features are welcome.
