Component body

Allows users to kill other users (and as a result hide all content written by those users).

Features

  • Allows you to easily "kill" users either via your "Dead to me" page, or via a link on the user's content.
  • Users can be brought back from the dead and "resurrected" to become visible to you again.
  • That's really it. You kill. You resurrect. Lather, rinse, repeat. Just don't enjoying killing too much. But what do I care, it's fun. Do it all you want.

History and personal grudge

This module was written for the DrupalCon Chicago module writing contest in which this module did not even place at all, itself a travesty. I will never understand how this module could lose a contest with a "communication" theme. Ignoring people we hate is the utmost tenet of communication. Appropriately in response, Robert Douglass, Jeff Eaton, and Morten are now dead to me as the judges who could not recognize the shining jewel of a module that was before them, and denied Dave Reid an iPad. YOU HEAR ME ROBERT, EATON, AND MORTEN? YOU ARE DEAD TO ME!!

Similar modules

  • Ignore user takes itself a little more seriously and still 'shows' the content but displays a 'this item is hidden' message on it, whereas deadtome is more whimsical and uses node/query/entity access to actually hide the content from the current user so it's never seen at all.
