No, you wouldn't need to recode all the modules that you use. db_rewrite_sql appends conditions to queries, so it would apply to everything and you would only need to put in one place.<br><br>But did you try the ignore_user module that I linked to? It seems like it would do exactly what you want.<br>
Here's the link again, just in case: <a href="http://drupal.org/project/ignore_user">http://drupal.org/project/ignore_user</a><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 1:57 PM, Vasanth Govind <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:govivasanth@gmail.com">govivasanth@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I'm not sure if a module already exists to do this, but regarding the "extra load" whether you use an existing module or code your own, it is going to have to hit the database.<br><br>If you do end up needing to code this, it should be pretty straightforward. A table to hold users ignore preferences, and probably a db_rewrite_sql to make sure that node queries don't retrieve results authored by users who are in the current user's ignore list.<br>
<br>Actually, just googled "Drupal ignore module" and this came up: <a href="http://drupal.org/project/ignore_user" target="_blank">http://drupal.org/project/ignore_user</a><br>Looks like what you want<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
