MOL Discussion Category filter - removing the political drivel

I just figured out how to remove the political nonsense from my forum list:

Click "Categories" heading on the top left (under "Start a New Discussion")
The list of categories will appear
In the shaded box for each category, there will be an "Options" dropdown on the right
Click "unfollow"

And voila! No more "rose gardens", no more "plumbing," no more nonsense!

That's what I did to rid myself of that bastion of darkness, the Education section.

Words and Games..gone!!

Excellent ideas. I'm on it.

Oh, I did that too. Years ago. I careth not for Botticelli.

Ok, this is a hidden feature - but when we upgrade this will be temporarily disabled.

We're aiming for the upgrade in the next couple weeks. I'll try to post more info in the next week or so.

You mean I'm going to have to see Soapbox: All Politics? Say it isn't so!!!

Oh nooooo! You mean I'll have to see Sports again? LOL

We will be away. Make sure you publish it in the West Virginia edition.



Ridski and LL_, you mightn't care for it - but we could do with your wit now and again. ;-)

How does one filter out categories in this new realm?


What? No rose gardens? No indoor plumbing? Next it will be no Pets & Animals! Who is "Lanky"?

Mtierney, Lanky is a returned poster who currently doesn't have their old avatar.

Pls everyone note the instructions quoted are for the Old Board, from 2006, and won't work here oh oh as has been mentioned several times, this old thread was revived as a joke; filters and emoticons and other refinements will come along soon.


Correct.   This discussion started before the change to the new server on 15 April.   The instructions are only relevant on the old forum.   The category blocking will happen at some point.  Hang in there.


Yeah, well muggins got caught, didn't he?


Where's the LOL emoticon or emoji?

Coming soon ...


I never had an avatar in the old MOL, but thanks to your avatar-shaming, I do now!  It was tough to find a rose garden photo so I chose Keith Moon instead...
