"Plonking" is now called "muting": IFDB has allowed you to hide a user and their reviews, comments, lists, and polls since 2008. At that time, the feature was called "plonking," which is an old term from Usenet. Now, we use the modern standard term, "muting." (This is just a rename; the feature works the same way it did before.)
How muting works
- If you mute a user, all of her reviews, comments, lists, and polls will be omitted throughout IFDB.
- This only affects you - it won't actually delete the user's reviews or hide them when other members view the same game pages.
- Muted accounts will not know that you’ve muted them.
- You can change your mind and un-mute someone later via the user filter editor.
