I’ve noticed a frequent poster who constantly turns every posting on VB to a political discussion. I looked at his postings (he’s a 5 star member) and has over 60 pages of posts, a lot of them have false information or accusations - none are about volleyball! Is there any way to mute such a person, so I don’t see his trolls?

Is there any way to mute such a person, so I don’t see his trolls? Yeah, click on the user name, and then go to the gear button in the top right. Select "Block Member" and then make sure to check the box that says "Hide this member's posts." Then click on "Block Member" again, and you're done. |

I am in my browser on my phone. Clicking the user name takes me to the profile, but there's no gear there. The only gear is on the post itself and it doesn't offer me a block/ignore option. There's someone whose reply to someone else was so out of line that I don't want to have anything to do with this person, but I can't find a way to ignore. |

I tried to block someone from my phone once and couldn't figure out how to do it on my phone, so I blocked them when I got to my computer. |

I finally got on a computer and it is, in fact, the only way to block someone. At least it's done now because this very unstable person is continuing to word vomit all over a thread at various people. I may not be the target, but I just don't have time for that level of disturbed on a board about volleyball. Thanks for the help!

I stumbled upon this thread just now and wanted to share with you and kimdc an easy way to switch over from the default "Mobile Version" that shows up whenever you're accessing VT on your phone over to "Desktop" mode. Desktop mode is the normal interface we see when accessing VT from a computer.
When you're on your phone and viewing the default VT interface, scroll all the way to the bottom of the screen, and you'll see the word "Desktop" in yellow. Click the Yellow-Font "Desktop" and that will toggle you into the version we know and love that we see on the computer. Once you do your thing and block that bothersome poster, you can toggle back to the cell phone version by scrolling all the way to the bottom and clicking "Mobile Version" in yellow.
Cheers!

I get very tired of certain posters having multiple accounts.
Posters that frequently change their account display name are annoying too, but I believe once you add someone to your Ignore list, the ignore feature continues to work after their name change too (still annoying, though)

So not for multiple accounts, but yes for accounts that change their display name. (Tagging also works on the account name but not the display name.) |
