Stosh (in the parent thread under the second reply) wrote of the possible ability of tag muting.
Dont want to have religion threads? Auto-hide #religion #god
Dont want abortion and gun controle on your Bnet? Auto-hide #abortion, #guns, and #politics for good measure.
I would love this option, and i hope it is implemented in an effective way by the end of the Beta.
Do you want the option? How would you use it?
I think it is important that we have the ability to use auto-hide / tag-mute in either only the mains or the mains and groups. [i]Some will want to hide #politics in the mains, but show #politics in their private groups, where they have a community with which they like to discuss such things.[/i]

Not going to solve the problem because people don't and will not tag their threads correctly.

Absolutely. I don't care if people are tagging incorrectly or anything putting a whole bunch of nonsense. If a thread has a tag I want to avoid, I don't want to see the thread regardless of other tags. So... woo.

This would work great if people tagged their posts. It would be nice to have this option.

It wouldn't work. I can make a religion thread tagged "offtopic fun lol catpics" and then you'll have to see it. Then people also tag politics or religion in their gaming threads so they can maximize who sees their thread.

If someone taggs a gaming thread as #religion, I dont want to see that thread. Either they actually tie religion into gaming, which I dont wan to read, or they are a moron, so I dont want to read what they write. As far as people abusing taggs by basically lying with them, those I can hide.
