wondering what that entails...

Try it and see.

Why is this thread blank?

It'll show you a message that you have the person on ignore whenevr you run across a post they made.

Give it a shot.

You can even add yourself to your ignore list. Now that's handy!

Can you still see threads started by someone that's on ignore?

Yes, you'll see the thread title.

since no one's responded to the OP I'll give it a go.

Every time a post appears by someone on your ignore list, a message will state that the person's post is hidden due to them being on your ignore list.

How strange. A completely empty thread.

Except for copycat posts.

I pretty much said that in post #4, do you have me on ignore?

There ya go. Thats what shows up.

I'll tell you what happens when someone asks this question in feedback. Seventeen people make the same lame joke that Groucho originated back in 1987.

Cripes, I had to take all of you off ignore just to read this thread. Thanks clowns.

I'm on another message board also based on the vBulletin software and have three people on ignore. One is the resident troll. One is the resident bag lady. One is the resident political troll. Whenever there's a post by them, it appears in the thread so you know they responded, but all you get is a message which says, "This message is hidden because so-and-so is on your ignore list."

Thing is about the political troll, even with him on the ignore list I am able to read all of his messages. Why? Because people quote him in their posts and then respond with their own political musings.

I would like the "ignore" functionality modified to show who has you on ignore, such that you post something and it says "Your message has been posted, but the following people don't give a ****:"

I'd like that too so I could know who to put on my Poo-Poo List.
