Basically as stated in the title. I'd like the option to remove specific stations and citadels from my market view. This option would preferably be independent with respect to buy and sell orders (e.g. I could block sell orders, but still see buy orders). It'd be like ignoring contracts from specific issuers except with the market and stations/citadels.

I don't think they'd be able to implement a feature blocking indvidual citadels by name, but perhaps a simple toggle to ignore market orders with citadels would suffice?

I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

That's probably about the best you'd get without impacting the market performance on an undesirable level.

So you don't have to see Orders for specific/stations or citadels that you're not interested in purchasing or selling at. There are many reasons you may want to do that.

Maybe, but dev time is a limited resource so it's best not to spend it on unimportant features or things that won't be used. Also if your thinking was that this would improve load times or something that's just a bad reason because it wouldn't, if anything a server-side filter would increase load times since sending the data isn't the time consuming part, it's gathering up the data in the first place.

As long as this was a client-side filter I can see the use, but that said I don't think it's worth the time to make it apply to buy or sell orders that are placed, and I wouldn't put it at a particularly high priority if I were CCP since you can already see the location in the browser and filter manually yourself.
