[QUOTE="AaronOfBarbaria, post: 6904735, member: 6701872"] Yes, it is. I really dislike the ignore feature of this forum. I get providing users the option not to see my posts if they don't want to read them and would rather not have to remember me by name or avatar and manually skip my posts. What I don't get is what is perceived to be gained by removing those users' posts from my sight when I am still open-minded enough to hear and even consider opinions not directly in line with my own, or how whatever that gain is isn't outweighed by the net effect on the community by having any guests or new users yet to ignore or be ignored by anyone see not only the insular and often community-toxic opinions of those people close-minded enough to liberally apply the ignore function, but also see those opinions as having no one provide disagreement or differing opinion, giving the illusory perception of those opinions being uncontested or more widely accepted.
