Yes. Someone else PMed me recently with the same question in fact.
Do like so:
1. on your user control panel go to private messages, and click on the bottom tab on your left: rules folders and settings
2. where it says if; click sender then hit next
3. in the new space that appears, select is foe and then hit next
4. select delete message, hit add rule.
5. click on the person's usename wherever you can find it as a link to get their viewer profile; hit add foe.
6. All incoming PMs from that person should now be blocked. Works with as many usernames as you care to select.

There seems to be a number fo requests for this kind of thing lately. Is something going on that a mod should know about? I'm wondering if perhaps a number of members are being hassled by the same person, for instance. If so, we want to know this - well, *I* do, anyway.

Surely, if someone is being a nuisance (trolling), a report to the mods would be a good idea.

You're welcome... Shootbinladen.
Odd, being thanked by a different poster than the one who made the request... and yet not by the poster who made the request.
Must be modern manners.
