Hey Admin, how about a Celebrity in Memoriam forum

with a special 4 hour hide button, so when we’ve had enough we can hide the topic for awhile. I’m not trying to be a grump, I liked the Queen and Betty White, but sometimes it overwhelms the feed.

Just a thought. Thanks!

So all the people who can’t stop posting about him and his spawn have a place to be together.

I know you can permanently trash words here, but you have to go back and untrash them and it's easy to forget in the mean time.

Twitter gives you the option to temporarily mute words for periods of 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days (or permanently if you so wish.)

I don't begrudge those who want to talk about a certain subject that I may not be interested in so the function clears up GD for me and it doesn't interfere with others who wish to discuss whatever it is in numerous threads.
