DaffyDuck got a reaction from Jonas Erlandsson in Why am I so bad at using IPB to rebuild it's theme cache?
Neither are we - returning the attitude!
Seriously, if you can't be helpful, you should just shut up, instead of buggering up this thread.

DaffyDuck got a reaction from TheWorldNewsMedia.org in Expanded "ignore user" features
10 years later, and here we are - NOTHING.
it’s pretty obvious that Invision developers and product managers, simply said, just don’t care about providing an effective and functional ignore function. This is most likely the case because none of them run their own forums, and thus (as usual) don’t actually have any clue as to what functionality is useful for a forum.
There is a plug-in from Adriano Faria (thank you @Adriano Faria), “Disallow Ignored Members From Replying in My Topics” which does a great job allowing forum members to keep their threads clean of members they ignore - though the ignored members still see the topic, they can not reply or post in it. This is a great start.
I guess the only way to get a proper reciprocal ignore feature is to commission a developer to create it - I’ve asked around, and quoted prices range anywhere from a couple of $100 to nearly $1,500. Might be worth it, seeing as how this will never happen from Invision.

DaffyDuck got a reaction from IP-Gamers in Ignore / Block
... and, I would like to add, this is awesome! It only took me 2 seconds to decided to purchase this. Worth every penny!

DaffyDuck reacted to Biker.GA in Expanded "ignore user" features
We'll just have to agree to disagree with that. While a normal person would just ignore the post without ever using the ignore feature, there are those narcissistic users who just can't help but to click through to read what was posted, and start the flame war all over again. By completely removing the post from the user's view makes for a calmer and more pleasant environment for all concerned.
