Ignore Lists. . .

[Bagpuss]

I've got none. 54! do you see any of the board at all?

I've yet to find a single person on the board that needed ignoring.

 

[Eternalknight]

None. Never even considered using it.

I've been tempted once or twice, but never done it.

And I've been here, since... um... *thinks back* Well, it was Eric's site, and it was before he got the rpgplanet.com account (Which our message board killed... Go us!), and was just hosted on I guess his ISP or something.

I just checked mine, and I've got 10. However, I think at least half of them have gone away, so I could probably remove them. Heck, there are really only two that I wouldn't consider removing from the list.

Zero for me - 54 seems a lot but it also makes me wonder if you are reading this post.

I have never felt the need to use it. And as I said at last years ENnies, no one has come up to me and said 'your post suck'.

I haven't been here as long as you, but I only have seven. I don't Ignore people for disagreeing with me, I just ignore them for being disagreeable with me. (Actually, one wasn't even disagreeable, just annoying!)

None for me.

The use of ignore fascinates me. It's like being in a room where several people are carrying on a conversation, and when one of them speaks you can't hear them at all. Yet the next person may reply to what your ignored person said, so the reply makes little sense to you (unless you go back and read/hear what the ignored person said).

Now, I don't mean to criticize, I am just curious how one can fully participate in the ongoing conversation while ignoring many of the participants.

I suppose the exception is the choice to ignore a person who never has anything to say, and is instead just chiming in with non sequiters and making no sense. I don't think we really have anyone like that on EN World, but I have certainly seen it elsewhere.
