Do you suppose we will have an "ignore user" feature someday? It would sure come in handy.

I've been feeling funny since I went in that open crypt. Not sure what it is.

For the fora (forums): A lot of people would ask questions "what is he/she talking about" forgetting they are talking about ignored people. I've seen it on other boards. It's up to av, but I suppose he sais no as well.

For IM: you can already block users.

For the chat: That's up to av to decide.

Basically the best "ignore" option is ... to just ignore people.

Remember, this is a website, not a chat channel.

There will not be a feature for exactly the reason IIVQ mentioned:: it would cause too much confusion.

Or a flame war. The administrator of the forum I used to post in added an "Ignore User" function. The one day, there was this one thread that sparked a major flame war, fierce volleys of Ignores were fired about, and nobody posted anymore, causing most members to leave the site cause they were utterly pissed at everyone else.

Crazy stuff.

You'd still see stuff by the ignored user that was quoted in other people's post. So this is really not a good solution. A mental ignore list works well.

Yeah, my mental ignore list works pretty well. For example, whenever I see a post with no capitalization or punctuation, or lots of leetspeak, I mentally label the poster a retarded crack monkey and skip to a real person. Sometimes I have to override that for moderation purposes, but usually ignoring them and a fair amount of ridicule makes them go away.
