So when someone submitted a url at least at one point it would show up on the right and you could block it. So if someone posted a newsweek link you could block any link postings from like newsweek.com or maybe reddit.com or google.com. Lately though I have not been able to. It seemed to disapear at some point. I have not seen it as an option in a long time.

    i really like this idea, and i can’t believe it doesnt exist.

    it sounds like it did exist, but for some technical reason it was removed… it could be something very innocuous like the code was terrible, and needed a rewrite, or a library was used that needed to no longer be used and it has not yet been replaced.

      yeah it definately existed at one point and was likely the most effective blocking tool compared to user level and magazine level.
