Block one individual from commenting on your posts? You can block someone from messaging you but what about this?
Probaly a few here are getting "random", unassociated comments and its tiresome to have to delete them.
Wouldn't it be nice just to block that user from commenting.

I think editing their comments into something sarcastic is fun.Deleting is no fun.Plus they get an email with the sarcastic message when we edit their comments.In case we delete,they wont even know.

Me too.Same radio has been annoying me.I edit his comments into something rude

Pro You can't block an individual person, but I have set my comments to moderated. Friends comments get through immediately, everything else has to be allowed by me.
Not ideal, but it works.
As for the problem, ask him to stop commenting on your blog. If he continues to do so, he IS breaking rules, and BCUK can get involved. Let them know what's going on and they will ask him to stop commenting on your blog, and if he carries on they will take stronger action.
So, next time he comments, ask him to stop.

Hi scooby,i take that you know much about programming.I refer you a website which you might look into.No i am not spamming 
.
Their IP tracking service is paid for,but there is a free trial available.The tracker is the most accurate i have seen to this date.They claim to provide a service for bloggers in which the blogger can block IP adresses,and even a whole range of IPs.Can block ISPs cities and geographical areas.
Apparently,they generate an HTML code for you to replace the link on your blog of which you want total control.If the "Send Comment" button can be replaced by their HTML.All comments will redirect througfh their servers and comments from Blocked IPs will go into the oblivion.
I liked the idea,but since i know nothing about HTML editing,i cant say if it will work with BCUK or not.
You might have a look at their website and let us know

If it works,many bloggers will have a solution,although it will be from a third party and paid for,but at least it will be an option.

Pro That service is not particularly useful unless the person has an unusual ISP. Most people in the UK are with either BT, Virgin or Sky for their internet service. Blocking one person from that ISP means blocking EVERYONE from that ISP.
safriz
yes,i know that,but they also have options for blocking individual IPs,instead of whole ISP.Eventually it will be the user's responsibility to identify the IPs or range of IPs who leve unwanted comments,and they got tools to assist that.
The main question is if their code can be integrated into our blogs or not?
scoobydoofus
Pro It's too easy for someone to change their IP address really, and if they leave it long enough their ISP will assign them a new one anyway.
It's a nice idea, but not really practical unfortunately.
safriz
Yup,thats true.But today changed 7 IP addresses,as i was using three mobile broadband on dynamic IP,and everytime they recognised me as me,without fail.
Anyways thanks for the interesting discussion
I know exactly who you are referring to! I afgree totally with Scooby.. If you ask him not to comment and he continues to do so..He is breaking the rules! Good luck hun x

He has to get bored soon, i've had a few from him but just ignore it as i don't want him thinking he's got me eating out his hand

I don't like him shouting and upsetting people.... 
Send him a message ( a blank one will do ) , then find it in your sent folder , then somewhere around the top right of the screen there'll be a 'block user' option .

I think I can guess to who you're referring - he's annoying everyone but not managing to overstep the mark to contravene BCUKs terms and conditions and he knows it!!! He's enjoying the notoriety.
I think all we can do is carry on deleting and/or ignoring him.
