[geeklog-modules] Forum request

[Blaine Lang]

I will  add it this to my list - I can see this being handy for large public 
lists but almost see a need for a generic plugin to allow members to manage 
their buddy/ignore lists. Maybe it's just something that is built into the 
forum and I have been thinking of adding API hooks so that certain forum 
features could be extended, integrated/replaced or exposed to other plugins.

 - BB_Code parsing
 - Smilies
 - Private Messenger
 - Attachment Mgmt
 - Filtering of posts (HTML, SPAM etc)
 - Rich Text Editor
 - Buddy/Ignore List Mgmt

I have a pretty extensive list of items for my next version so we'll see how 
it goes.

I'm going a step further...I want members to be able to permanently
ignore other member's posts.  The ignore list must be editable by the
user so they can undo any mistakes.  An added feature would be to show
members how many users are ignoring them....then maybe a few members
will take the hint.
