I just find it annoying every time someone says something that a person does not like they keep referring to their ignore list.

I think the reason we want people to know they are on the list is so they will perhaps stop posting asinine comments directed at us. Maybe if we discourage the rude behavior, they will cease and desist. Not likely, but maybe.

They included this feature for a reason. It is difficult to ignore posts when you are trying to follow a particular thread.

No it is not. When you see a topic started by "......." you just do not open the thread. If you see someone posted a response, you pass over their posts. Half the time I do not read over all the posts in a long thread anyway. So it is very easy to pass over someone I think is talking crap.

BTW, when you say you put someone on their ignore list do they stop posting automatically?

Peace

Put it like this. 50% of the people that don't like you, you don't care if they do. The other 50% of people, you don't know they don't like you.

I'm 100% sure I don't care either way.

It's no fun ignoring someone if they don't know you're ignoring them but if you tell them you're ignoring them you don't know if they remember you're ignoring them the next time you ignore them, so you have to tell them again but then are you really ignoring them?
Quite the conundrum.
