  • Block members?

Is there a possibility to block members on together?
There are some people that are rather annoying than helpful, so it would be a nice feature to block those people.

    @ThatOneAss#73859 Hey Roland 👋, right now there is no option to block/hide posts from other together members just for you. If someone is spamming or so, bunq 🌈 themselves can block someone, but this is the last step.
    Although I would love it if all people on together would love each other, but bunq 🌈 is getting bigger and bigger and so such a feature will be necessary in the future, I think.
    You can't love everyone, there is a reason why you have a block feature basically everywhere 😞

      It is not possible, nor do I think it is desirable to be able to block members on Together. The best solution here would be to just not reply to such comments when you do not agree. We, moderators, will keep an eye on comments, when they become rude/not adding to the discussion/etc. we will step in. I think this is a nice balance between not being able to block but still "enforcing" some common politeness. Everyone is free to respond to any topic they want, as long as they adhere to the Community Guidelines. 😁 Let's keep Together a happy, clean and organized place where we can discuss ideas, exchange experiences and help each other. 😁

      I will moderate some comments here that do not necessarily add to the idea itself, but I will leave the idea open to see what other bunqers think. 🙂

        I do think it would be nice to have a "report" or "This message isn't relevant" button. The report for when people are rude or post personal information because they think this is for the support only and the "This message isn't relevant" for when people start a discussion about the bunq 🌈prices again, when this is not the topic to do so.

        Maybe an idea to hide messages that aren't relevant (but with a showable button when the user want to see the message).

          I agree that some users hijack topics (with broken English) for irrelevant questions or just plainly rude. It’s a shame not everyone obeys the guidelines, then again it’s noteworthy bunq allows everyone to say what they want (unless very rude).

          Having said that, I do think the system Tweakers.net uses might be very helpful. People can sort of moderate other comments (-1 troll/spam, 0 off topic, +1 on topic, +2 helpful, +3 highlight) and it’s working quite well on Tweakers 👍🏻

            @Delano#74081 Ok avec l'idée. Mais l'anglais cassé vient des traducteurs, il faut excuser ceux qui comme moi, non pas la chance de parler brexiter

              @Delano#74081 I’m not sure. The mod points on Tweakers are effective, especially with my css tweaks that hide all but the +3’s 😊 But quiet often people vote with emotion rather than objectivity and there are mod trolls that downvote or bonus vote random posts for kicks. Resulting in decent and completely relevant replies being scored incorrectly. Then you get moderation wars in public, feeding the trolls even more.

              I think it is better for the positive vibe of the community if Together had two or three forums/categories. One for beginners where all the repeating and support questions are asked or moved to. Another for advanced topics like API stuff or detailed budgeting setups. And one for everything in between. Then the moderators can move individual content to the appropriate section, send the author a friendly note about the edit and making it also easier for everyone to find stuff months later.

                The hackernews system also works well, unless a conversation turns to politics or religion ...

                  I can understand why @ThatOneAss#73859 wants this. There are definitely a couple of people on Together that I'd like to hide for myself, even though they're not really posting things I'd deem unfit for Together. Their attitude just gets on my nerves personally and I would much rather not even see their comments.
