MUTING unwanted postings
I wanted to MUTE this North Island influx of comments, so I selected the ellipses and was shown two options.
I selected Mute user.
My screen was then showing
Sorry Don
You can't see this profile because it's not in one of your nearbye neighbourhoods.
This reply was totally irrelevant and annoying.
I didn't need or want to be informed that the post was from outside my neighbourhood. I already knew that.
I wanted to stop the unwanted posts from another UNSELECTED neighbourhood appearing in my inbox.
I don't want to see what North Island posters are posting,
I have the soclaiming Moderators tell us that they don't want too many posters.
Well the soclaiming Moderators can reduce the number of posts if it upsets them so much by getting these uncalled and undesired postings able to be MUTED.
Of course this presupposes that NEIGHBOURLY's use of the word "MUTE" user was showing their ignorance of the meaning of the word "MUTE" which means "not audible" for "not visible."
It smacks of that joke a historic time ago, the professor entered onto his Commodore 16 computer, "out of sight, out of mind" and was surprised when the screen response was, "INVISIBLE IDIOT." What more needs to be said of those who have no interest in improving this website. ?!?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
