Nairaland software design pattern is somehow wack. I notice that whenever any of my posts is banned, I will see empty boxes without the said post inside. It looks so ugly and annoying.

What you could have done is to create an extra column in the table where all the posts are saved, let the column decide if a post is banned or not, when fetching for users posts, only fetch posts that are not banned. Then you won't have to use client side code to handle which post is allowed be displayed.

This is 2024 NL.

Small programing way you learn you think say you be expert, How is this different from whatsapp "Your message has been deleted". I don't see you making post complaining about that?
