Hide Previous Submissions

from the self-post dept.

I would like a feature to hide previous submissions by a user, though all posts are public and someone can find all posts by that user, making it private will help in unbiased comments.

Seeing someone's past posts lets us make an informed opinion about the poster's expertise and allows us to find other interesting sites they wanted to share.

If you don't want people to be biased by your previous posts you need to think about what you're posting here (and elsewhere), and how it reflects upon you.

It's still biased, past submissions only tell if user isn't a troll, apart from that, it's only use is to bias opinions.
