I om on Whidbey, I have 4 Black Marans, 3 Barred Rocks (though one is questionable, can a barred rock have brown bars?), one RIR and 4 bantams of questionable sex and parentage :) Looking to add an LF Cochin breeding pair, too :)
 
I think it would only block posts from the person doing the blocking. It wouldn't make sense to block him/her from EVERYONE, just because YOU don't like him/her!

I think it's a bit silly to block someone though. Suppose someone answered; then you wouldn't know what they were talking about unless they "quoted". You'd soon get totally lost in the thread.

No, that's what I meant, to block someone so you can't see them. I wen't into a random breed thread and blocked someone I had never heard of. All of their posts disappeared for ME. ;)
 
Anyone know how to get rid of the junk to the right of the posts?
I went to preferences and clicked on full width thinking that would do it but no go.
I think it's there for support of BYC. It is annoying, so what I did was dragged the right side of my browser to cover it and then changed my prefs so all the posts are the same size (Fixed width) so it doesn't cut off any text.

The problem with doing what I just said, is it cuts the menu bar off at the top of the page, so you have to go in and re size everything again

Wow, the formatting and all on this new lay-out is not growing on me. I see there's a quick-reply window down here, which I am now using, but I can't figure out how to quote and reply to a post. I wonder what the framework is for this look- not anything I've seen before, and I'm fully twenty years online now. The right-hand sidebar is especially distracting, and I can't imagine why anyone would have thought it useful. And there are standard clickable icons for coding a BB post that have been in use for at least a decade: for the most part, they are not the ones chosen above. (and you can't hand-code, I see, which is going to slow me way down, ugh).

It's almost as bad as the Live Journal "upgrade" and that has the excuse of being designed by Russians.

Still really cranky if you can't tell. Griz's little escapade with my breakfast has resulted in unpredictable blood glucose levels, which means I'm on a short, short leash for at least the rest of the day, the sun is shining, I have tons of work to do, and short of carrying a lunch with me I don't dare go out and get too involved with anything for fear of getting lost on the planet. And all the waterbunks were frozen this morning, so I'm behind as it is.
