Well, some want everyone else to function as they do, I guess. Personally, I think that "ignore user" should be a last resort, and used only for those trolls who tend to push your personal buttons. Right now I have only one person on my ignore list. Not reading his posts keeps my experience here positive, and helps me focus on real discussions. At some point I'll likely take him off ignore, and see if he's still an annoyance worthy of it. If he is, he'll go back on ignore and stay there. But it will be a while before that re-test. IME from other fora, I find at least a 4-6 month ignore is a minimum for me. (And I acknowledge that at least some of the responsibility is my own, but this is my way of dealing with that portion. Back off and leave alone!)
