More changes to the behavior of ignore list?

[billd91]

Something appears to have changed on the site. And I doubt I'm the only person encountering this issue. But I know I'm on Morrus's ignore list. But prior to this afternoon, I was still able to see the threads he created - because that's apparently how the ignore feature worked. People you ignore could still see threads you created.
But now, I can't see any of the threads he creates. And that means I can't read any of the news articles he posts.
Why the change?

Ah, this would explain why a couple of responses in a thread I was occasionally following in my notifications suddenly brought me to "something went wrong." I'm presumably ignored by the thread starter.

This has happened before, it's a Xenforo thing. The last time it happened, it took a few weeks (as I recall) and they eventually corrected it, so that'll probably be the case this time around.

For reference, here's the thread from where it happened about a year ago:

Thread 'Thread Not Found (Unless I Log Out)'

So this is a rather odd situation. I went to check up on this thread...

WotC - WotC President Cynthia Williams Resigns

Cynthia Williams, who has been president of Wizards of the Coast for the last two years, will be leaving the company at the end of the month, according to an SEC filing dated April 15th. Hasbro is already looking for somebody to step into the role. Williams worked for Microsoft on the Gaming...

...only for it to be missing entirely, as though it had vanished. When I went to my post history, it confirmed that I had posted in that thread, but when I clicked on my posts (i.e. to send me to my posts in that thread), I was instead sent to a "Oops! Thread not found" message.

Even stranger is that, when I log out, I can find the thread no problem. It's like it's been set to be invisible specifically to me.

I've never heard of...

I am also encountering this issue, I'm on someone's ignore list and can't access the thread, in which i've posted and have gotten notifications that others have posted in it.

Like Alzrius said, we've had this before, it was just odd for it to suddenly recur. I suspect a software update.

This seems to re-occurring right now. My sympathies to Morrus (not @ing him as I'm sure he's aware) and the team having to repeatedly squash the same bug, I have been having to do similar at work and it's not much fun, to put it mildly.

Morrus and team do not squash the bug. It is a Xenforo thing. We don't touch that code.
