I was wondering if there are any plans to build in a blocking option?
No, Pownce is not Twitter, but one of the things I like about Twitter is its ability to block someone directly from their userpage.
I, for example, have a user that requested friendship long ago. I decided to ignore the request and move on. The problem is, this user keeps adding comments, and I'd rather not hear from this person. I can't block him, though, until he requests friendship again.
Are there any plans in the works to add this?
By the way, I'm happy with the increased stability as of late. You guys have done a good job turning this around :)
I want to see a feed of all notes from everyone on my friends list and everyone I'm a fan of. Like how the public feed is, except instead of everyone on pownce, it's just the people you're specifically interested in. Is there no way to do this?
Since I'm a featured user, I've got a lot of friends requests and a lot of subscribers. I know that subscribtions have been set up for people who are kind of afraid by the "friendship" notion.
But sometimes these people are really interesting, and the only way to see what they post is to browse the entire list of fans.
By adding a link to the Pownce page of the subscriber, it will be an easy way to access his notes and add him (and it could reduce the time I spend on browse the entire list of fans). Now, The e-mail only displays the name of the guy who has subscribed...
I was going through and adding people who had "fanned" me a friends and found that any public posts they had that I *could* see prior to adding them as a friend became the following once I friended them:
"Nothing to See Here...
%username hasn't sent you anything yet." (%username = their user name)
I think it would be great to be able to add people I'm a fan of to my sets, instead of just friends. Now that Pownce is no longer invite-only and the number of people I follow increases, I'm having a harder time keeping up with the notes I receive. Right now I can use the "show" drop-down to filter by set, but it leaves out public notes by people I follow who aren't my friends.
For example, I could create a "Pownce" set, add Leah, Daniel, et al. to it even though they're not my friends :(, and use the "show" drop-down to see only their notes. I think it would be a great way to sort through the noise and keep track of notes by my favorite people or the ones I find most-interesting.
