I just successfully put myself on my own ignore list!
How cool is that!?

Now I can ignore all the crap I post...

Ah, I can feel the relief already.

So, you actually don't see any of the stuff you post?

That's great, I should try that as well!

There's nothing odd about this. It's easy to do. I did it but it got boring after a few hours.

I was the first person to do this right after this feature was put in.

I demand recognition for my own stupidity!

I don't ignore anyone.............I tried it, but my sense of curiosity left me wondering what depths the person I had ignored had sunk to this time.

I've only got 1 person on my ignore list. To make amends, that same person is also on my buddy list

I never put anyone on my ignore list. How can I flame them if I don't know what they're saying?

I agree, the ignore list is just a form of auto-censorship - indeed, as the word suggests it merely promotes ignorance...

Maybe that's why posters like Lefty and Skywalker appear to like using it...

Yes, it often crops up. Funniest part is MarkG is often ignored.

Yes, users which have been deleted from the database are automatically ignored. MarkG once had a problem with his account once and solved it by deleting his old account while creating a new one. So when you view old posts of him (of when he still had his old account), he will be on ignore. Same for a whole bunch of other posters who no longer exist, or exist under a new account.

How many mods would be on that list?

I only have one person on my ignore list who never posts here anymore.

Some use it. I prefer to see what everyone is saying, even if they are annoying.
