Ignore?

I'm fine with whatever ignore functionality you come up with, including a full two-way block function, as long as it doesn't block entire threads.

Yeah - the reason we have living, breathing people as moderators is that no system will to exactly what's desired in all cases.

If someone is sending you PMs, and you do not want them, reply to them to politely tell them you'd rather not hear form them... AND ADD A MODERATOR TO THE RECIPIENTS LIST.

I was certainly able to get a block lifted by contacting the person who blocked me (a long time after the block) and asking nicely for a second chance

The block was messing up my ability to make the "Best of" post.

Oh, these are moderator functions, not board-member-facing.

They can also PM you, as I found out.

But it is nice to see threads if the creator is on your block list.

Yes, everything about the old two-way ignore feature was understandable, except how entire threads became inaccessible just because you ignored/were ignored by the user making post #1. To me, that always came across as more of a database programming error than something logical and useful.

Please don't re-implement a solution that singles out the first post to be more special than the second, or 99th.

(Not seeing the individual post, however, is fair)

Thx

We're not 'implementing a solution' to anything. Xenforo's ignore function is Xenforo's ignore function. I have no plans to meddle with it.
