Ignore Button

[jaded]

I never understood why people would like to miss part of a conversation.

As for the global ignore, if I'm not mistaken, it made things slow.

I've always considered the ignore feature as logical. No one knows which of any one persons posts is going to  send you crazy-making just their even breathing, much less posting "spaghetti salad" opinions. 

The ignore feature gives you a way to self-regulate yourself. 

Was on one forum an eventually had 60 members on ignore before it was all done & dusted. It was a subject specific forum but quite a few of them would collect over on James Randy's skeptical forum. It was a godsend to be able to just not know anything they said & focus just on the forum's topic.
JMO Cheers!!
