I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

I agree, ita.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

it's not really part of my profile (which is all about memememe! and anyway is a very long scroll)

Is it any less about you than the threads you read? In my head it's on the profile page because that's where WebX put it, and I don't see a good reason to move it.

If the profile page is a long scroll, we might want inpage links to scoot up and down it.

My opinion is that the section should be there whether you have anyone blocked or not, just empty in the latter case.

I agree. Maybe have text that says "No users made blinvisible."

I'd rather keep the filter within the profile page. I'd rather not clutter up the left hand column, and I don't expect anyone will be using the filter often enough to warrant it having it's own special page.

t edit But inpage links are a good idea.

I think this sounds great.

I like MARCIE a little better than blinvisible, but blinvisible is fine too.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If the profile page is a long scroll, we might want inpage links to scoot up and down it.

I think it's already long enough that anchor links are needed. More so if we add what could be another long list of stuff.

I'll try to articulate the profile or not business in a separate post.

I think some instructional text might be helpful if no one is blocked. That way, no one will waste time trying to figure out how to add someone to their list of blocked users from the profile page.

A link to the (yet-to-be-written) FAQ entry should take of it, I would think.

Instead of Blinvisible, I'd love to see

No Really. Don't look. You've filtered this for a reason.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

No Really. Don't look. You've filtered this for a reason.

That could be what pops up when you mouseover "Blinvisible."

Several hours later. I like Blinvisible.
