    ...in case anyone considered ignoring me at some time and then forgot my name.

    Personally, the curiosity keeps me from ignoring anyone for very long...so I use my built-in "ignore/disregard" function.
    Wait, you mean to say you rely on your own mental acuity and emotional maturity to simply read something and decide then - after reading it - whether to ignore it or not? It's almost like the real world, interacting with different kinds of people. Very brave, sir. I like it.

    That's madness. Big government is the way to go. I want things ignored FOR me.

    It would figure people on here would get on their high horses over the ignore feature.

    Anyway, OP. Thanks for posting this for those that didn't know. :)

    This is fantastic. OP, thank you so much. Everyone wins. All the trolls will come in to make fun of this thread, and have a lot of fun. And everyone else can ignore them as they come 'round.

    Brilliant, win-win solution. NICE!

    Hi everyone. I volunteer right now! If you don't have the mental acuity to ignore people using your own brain, then you don't need to be reading what I write.

    We should keep this information available to newcomers somehow.

    Sometimes I enjoy the goofing around, but there are times when it just annoys me and interferes with the topic. You don't have to keep people on ignore. Just un-ignore when you are in the mood for some goofy stuff.
    I agree, it is a wonderful sense of freedom. If you read through a thread, and then go back and re-read it after you ignore all those who deserve to be ignored, it is a pretty pleasant, supportive read!

    I see what you did there.

    No, you're not on ignore.

    Indeed. If this ever catches on here, it will revolutionize MFP.

    I just tested the ignore feature to see what the fuss is about. Yeah, no way I'd stick to that. i'd unignore people as soon as I saw them post again.

    Ah, the irony of not being able to "stand rude nasty people" while laughing at a post which alleges that someone has no life for posting 3,336 times in 2 years and arbitrarily mocking another person with a high post count...
