***Plugins***
Which plugins you enable depends on the functionality you wish to provide. The following list describes them from an administration point of view.
*Blackout*
This plugin blacks out your friendica node during a given period. This was created as part of the SOPA protests and while it may seem generally pointless, it isn't. If you are a school or a youth group, you can use it to turn your website off after school, or at a certain time on a night. It will continue to work normally under the hood, so any content from external sites will still be delivered, ready and waiting for your members to read when the lights come back on.

Server impact - none.
Impact to support requests - potentially high.

*Blockem*
This allows you to collapse the posts and comments of specific members so you don't have to read them. This is very similar to the "ignore" feature on most forum software - except that their contributions don't disappear entirely (you can click to un-obscure them). Note that your users can also ignore, block or delete contacts in their contacts settings. But Blockem has the additional advantage of obscuring comments by people you would rather not read in your friends threads. That means you can use it on people that aren't among your own contacts, but who annoy you in a forum or when they comment on your friends' contributions.
