Hmm, well since someone's still interested in this, I made a few improvements, so I'll share a current version. It now has a few settings at the top of the script which can be edited more easily.

The changes are:
- can be accessed from any bay12 page, but I modified it so that it acts differently on the main boards or replies page.
- option to "mark as read" automatically, to keep the replies page clear (but this sends an HTML request, so can be turned off)
- option to either delete or recolor blocked threads in the main board (can be any RGB color).
- I left a bunch of megathreads in there so you don't have to look for them, just chop the ones you want to keep

Here's the code:

Hooray!

You have probably already noticed this, but in case you haven't: With this extension installed, all text linking to blocked threads becomes invisible.

Edit: I think. I remember some weird vanishing-text stuff happening, but I'm not 100% sure that was what was going on.

With the new one two posts up, it shouldn't do that.

In the old version of the script, it could either be applied just to the replies page (but which meant you couldn't edit the script from other bay12 pages) or to all pages (but would delete topics everywhere). Now, you can specify different behavior.

While I don't ever see myself using this, I'll just PTW anyway.
