I've set this in my .gnus:

 ; Scoring, don't show the lowest of the low:
 (setq gnus-summary-expunge-below -9999)

And in my ~/News/all.SCORE I have (among other things):

 (
  ("from"
   ("someone@stupid.example.com (I Don't Want To Read)" -10000 nil e)
 )

That puts them completely out of eyesight. The people I don't want to
read but still want listed I just score -5000, for fun.
