Not just ignoring in the sense of it's there and I just ignore it, but ignore the threads they start as well as their posts? This would be a quite useful and who knows, might help us be nicer to members (by not acknowledging they are here).

I think the new, but too resource hungry, version of the software allowed that.

Why would you want to ignore someone? I have about 2 people on this forum that I can't stand for whatever reason.

BUT, sometiems they submit something that really helps me. I think the best bet is to "close your eyes"

Weird, I see a thread open, but I don't see anyone posting in it? Geoff, did you get your "ignoring" software to finally work? Maybe I should take those three guys that really piss me off and annoy me, off my list?

That's an extremly pathetic attempt at ruining an otherwise serious thread.

Yep it was available in the new version of Vbulletin that crashed the service. I had four people on my ignore list.

I think its a dumb idea.
