I would like to be able to filter the forums for certain criteria that would save me needing to wade through pages and pages of junk that is adding nothing.

In particular for the "Todays Active Topics" section to be able to filter out topics that have no interest.

Specifically I would like to be able to filter out topics where certain users - and you know who you are - have started their usual repetitive holding of the community hostage. I am sick of seeing and trying to avoid it, and it would be great to have some filtering to hide it!
