I would love to see a plug in that would allow a user to ignore a particular thread.
Use Case:
Tom is a member of a forum where they post about all manner of topics. Some of the members are big cricket fans. Tom has no use for cricket and feels every cricket thread is a waste of his time. Sometimes there are multiple cricket threads going and it gums up the board for Tom. Tom hits the check box next to the cricket thread(s) he wants to never see again. He chooses the actions drop down and chooses "ignore thread(s)" or something similar. He's brought back to the forum listing and the ignored threads are no longer visible (to him!).
The thread would no longer show up in the user's view of the forum. A list of ignored threads would appear somewhere in their profile in case they ever wanted to un-ignore.
