Default Ignore list

How many people do you have on yours and would it better if the persons name did not appear at all?

I would say even if someone else quotes said user, you should not be able to see what they have posted.

None, I would never take this place seriously enough to let anyone get under my skin so much they need to go on ignore. It is just an Internet forum after all.

Having said that I agree with banny that if you place someone on ignore then you shouldn't see their quoted posts in other people's posts either.

Otherwise all you get is some saddo asikng someone else to quote them so the perosn they know is ignoring the can see their post... if they wanted to read what you had to say they wouldn't place you on ignore would they? LOL!

The ignore function seems a bit childish to me.

Agree with the above, specifically with f1.
I find it more fun NOT to ignore.

And if that is who I think it is I think we can make an exception to the rule for her

Sara's not on much these days anyway.

Don't use it myself - it's usually pretty obvious which threads/posters are on the wind up!

Never used it, but I did think about doing it once as I had just about had enough of being singled out and being made to feel like an insecure school girl.

Thank god that person managed to see the error of their ways.

The IGNORE function is there for people who have very little control over their own lives in all honesty ...... people who want something else step in where they fear to make a decision not to read something

Who, in their right mind, could possibly want a device to ignore someone they don't know, will probably never meet, saying something which may or may not be true, as a character on some electronic communication device?? They need locking up IMO

Are these the same people, who sat, alone, in the corner of the playground at school? The same ones who told teacher of someone else? The same ones who, rightly, got their 4rses kicked?

Yep, I do believe they are

That's why I only have 1,567 on my ignore list!!

Don't use it TBH ... just ignore their posts, all it takes is a bit of strong will

Just the one, and yes in my opinion it would make a massive difference to the energy of the board if they just fcuked off

I had pete on ignore after he said a few things that absolutely cracked me up. Within a few weeks, I took him back off ignore as the place was too boring without him.

Same here. Once upon a time I was guilty of the above, especially when you have members starting new aliases just to harass you Now, I really don't let it bother me, better things to do.

I've set it up to ignore posts with certain keywords rather than specific users.

I've included the words: Diesel, Honda, Torque.
