“This order [i.e. capitalism] is now bound to the technical and economic conditions of machine production which today determine the lives of all the individuals who are born into this mechanism, not only those directly concerned with the economic acquisition, with irresistible force. Perhaps it will so determine them until the last ton of fossilized coal is burnt.”
—Max Weber, 1905

I have been hacking the TodBan script in order to add a function that gives an overview of the number of posts per poster for the current story:
http://graphoilogy.googlepages.com/todban.user.js
Changes:
* function "Show users" that opens a new window containing a table with the list of posters along with their number of posts and their ban status.
* added TOD:Europe and TOD:Canada
The original set of instructions from Greenman is here:
http://www.theoildrum.com/node/2288/160949
Note: I'am not sure the "Manage Posts" function in the GreaseMonkey plugin is working properly. I suggest you to first remove the script and then restart Firefox before installing the new one.
Hi, Khebab. More changes from me, mostly just cleanup. They're in the change log. http://stalkylittleboy.com/todban.user.js
Thanks! I've updated my url above with your version.
Looks great, guys! Stalky: did you merge out khebab's change to add tod:europe and tod:canada?
Three days, and the reason for the script went away, and you guys turn my hack into a masterpiece.
I'm just too old to keep up...
I changed www.theoildrum.com and europe.theoildrum.com into *.theoildrum.com.
I'm thinking to add a Hide Thread option next to Subthread in each comment's header bar. When clicked, it would hide the post and all replies, but leave the header bar, changing the option to Unhide Thread. Any thoughts or requests?
Maybe it's time to learn how to write a proper Firefox extension...
Feature creep. Leave that for a server-side upgrade. Let's finialize this and I'll slap a fresh version on my page.
To others: apologies for airing this stuff on the public forum.
I agree, this is not the place. Sorry, all. GreenMan, Khebab, I'm chris at stalkylittleboy.com; if we're going to keep working on this, let's discuss it somewhere other than the drumbeat.
I agree, my address is Khebab@TheOilDrum.com
About firefox extension, there is GreaseMonkey script compiler:
http://www.letitblog.com/greasemonkey-compiler/
but it seems to produce only .xpi compatible with FireFox 1.0.
Wow! This is fantastic. I installed Greasemonkey several days ago and was trying to create a ban script myself, but I just don't know enough about javascript to do it. This will make TOD much more pleasant to read.
Thanks, Khebab and all the moderators of TOD for your work on keeping this forum reasonable. It's a breath of fresh air among all the other sites and their flamewars, caracter assassinations, strawman arguments and pointless "how many angels on the head of a pin" quasi-philosophical pissing contests. :)
Hey, any chance of getting a version for Windows XP for those who dont run Firefox?
If you are asking for an Internet Explorer version, no. It does not support this sort of plugin.
Firefox does run on Windows. Try it, you'll like it!
Yes, try Firefox. It works great on Windows XP. And it has free plugins for just about anything.
Including many that are helpful at blogs like this one, such as HTML formatting, spell-checkers, etc.
