    Yes, because I want to encourage others to do the same as me. If we all blocked the idiots they would be forced to change their behaviour. I am quite sure that you could easily name at least six people on my list. You know as well as I do which posters offer only abuse/ drivel in the hope of provoking conflict. They think it is smart to be disruptive. They have limited knowledge themselves and all they can offer is to criticise and attack others without need. One poster has actually boasted about getting rid of a productive member by abusing him at every opportunity. This boast has been made in the last few days and was backed up with words which showed he would continue to act badly.

    Now do you really want to deal with these creeps ? Would you ever consider meeting them face to face. I certainly would not. Life is a constant battle to avoid dickheads and to volunteer to be involved with them on this forum would be foolish.

    There are still lots and lots of people who are not blocked by me and the size of block list is exaggerated because the men blocked use many profile names, yet another childish action.

    I am far from perfect and accept all the banter under the sun. I will not accept abuse from people whose only purpose is to disrupt. There are also some drunks on the forum and their behaviour varies according to the time of time and the level of intoxication. I put up with these, at least for the present.

    If you have read that, it seems your ignore function has a malfunction - or is a complete waste of time.

    Largely a waste of time. Never used it in 7 years. Put one alcoholic on ignore a month or so ago. Still see everything other than the text. I took him off and now just ignore him.

    You have quoted Neverna. I could not read what he had written prior to your quotes as he is on my block list and has been for about a year. So, it works. Apart from the quotes I am spared him.

    ^Kind of my point, Can. As soon as someone quotes him, you see it anyway, so why bother.....

    I feel that in my own little way I am trying to improve the forum by not responding to those on my list.

    ^^Understood. But the same thing could be accomplished without having them on ignore - just don't respond.

    Baldrick is trying to train me (with reds) not to respond to PizzaBoy, and I now rarely do. I just red him every chance I get.

    So it doesn't stop you seeing posts by those on your block list and it doesn't stop you viewing comments you find obnoxious by people not on your block list.

    As Davis said, a complete waste of time.

    The function's used by wimps and weirdos in futile attempts to avoid criticism, and to blackmail others into conforming to their fwkd up world view, their fragile little egos.

    The ignore function doesn't work as they anticipate though, it only exposes them to more criticism as precious princess snowflakes, and the reds they get must really piss them off,....so .....

    I'll go out on a limb to suggest that those who engage in ignore functions are largely enabling blocking functions towards certain individuals from redding said member.....as one can still read posts by those who've been blocked by clicking on the link next to the particular post. And I suspect that, in real practice, the offended does read those posts/members that are supposedly ignored - outta curiosity.

    Quite silly.
    Kindergarten.

    Name and shame them then, because it seems the mods don't know about them - only you say you know them.
