Holy old threads with theophany in them!!!
My list is empty,
No-one can't see the point you only end up with a thread with half the replies missing, like overhearing a telephone conversation and you only get to hear one side of it. "Who, what, what are they talking about?!" and you can still see the offender if someone quotes them.
The only reason for it I can see if you don't trust yourself to not get yourself banned replying to something that offends you. If you're really that thin skinned then maybe you do need it.
I tried to block myself! lol
If only that was possible
