Is there any way to hide all games posts?

Don’t click on them ?

Esspee I hide them,
You need to be on the mobile site

Scroll right to the bottom of the page and click on ‘mobile site’
At the top of the page on the right there is a red button click on that a list drops down look for hide discussion.
Then scroll back to the bottom and click on ‘desktop site’ to return.

Sorry not very well explained.

Thank you everyone. Will be trying that tonight tanith.

But unfortunately, you can only hide them one at a time, which is very time-consuming if there are suddenly ten or more on the 'active posts page.'

tanith you only need to be on the mobile site if you use the desktop if you use a iPad and use the mobile you have to change to desktop to hide the darned games
Esspee which ever Site you normally use you have to change to the opposite (Why I cannot imagine?)
Good luck it’s a bit time consuming and you have to do it all again the next day !!!

I nearly posted this myself earlier today when 13 of the active threads were game ones.

I’ve hidden them all but I know they will come back .

I wish I could block them permanently. I know lots of people like them but I’m sure as many don’t and they clog up the feed preventing active threads showing that I would be more interested in than games.

NanaandGrampy once I've hidden a games thread it never reappears i wonder why yours do?

Thanks for this thread. The games clutter the screen so much. I've hidden them as you suggested tanith and it looks as if new ones pop up but I can get in the habit of hiding those each day. Brilliant!

I don’t know Tanith but it’s infuriating ?

Haven’t managed to do it. I’ll keep trying as it really annoys me!
