How do I block a user so I don't see their questions?
There is one YA member, an absolute troll, that constantly asks pointless hypothetical questions. Every question is a "one-liner" with no description, only the question header. This woman has a 1200 question history in only the last 6 months and she is constantly flooding the marriage & divorce section with stupid questions. Also changes her name regularly.
I have already blocked her but her questions still show in the question list. Is there any way to be able to filter them out so I don't see them at all?

No, you can't. Every member's questions are open to the public in that sense. They're only blocked if they block their profile, but can be seen in the 'recent/popular' section.
What you need to do is report this member for senseless chat and whatever other violations said member is causing. We're All expected to keep this site free of violators so gather some of these questions together as well as the member's info and report them.
Source(s): I'm a hearing impaired guy that mostly reports pedophiles, pornographic pics, & 'go kill yourself' accounts. I have reported members like those that you suggest because I feel that they're only here to waste time/space on this site and very unlikely to even care whether their postings get an answer or not. - ?Lv 77 years ago
No way to stop seeing the headers. All you can do is just ignore it and don't open or answer them.
As long as users are answering the questions they will continue asking. Went to the category and looked and am fairly sure who you mean. The questions are more of a statement than seeking knowledge.

There is no way you can hide other users Qs,what do you think this is? YA are the only ones who can remove Qs.If you don't like her Qs ignore them,or if they break the rules report them.
