Whaddaya mean? It still works. I just added you as a test (and now have to figure out how to UN-Ignore (since I have no intention of ignoring you for real, **Quasi** ) )

Into the Twilight Zone, I mean. 😃

I could have **sworn** there used to be an **ignore user** “button” down there with all the others. ( **Profile, Search, www. etc.** ), but now it isn’t there anymore. Not on **my** page, anway.

I added Fenris as a **Buddy**. **That** worked fine, but I can’t ignore him, and wouldn’t anyway! 😃

Thanks

Oh, Jeez! I just figured it out: You have to go to **User CP** and enter the name, right? :o

Old age. Gotta be.

**Where the hell are my teeth???** 😃

Sorry, guys. Thanks for takin’ it easy on an old Codger!

You can also select a user’s “profile” button, then at the bottom of their profile, you’ll see an option to add that user to your ignore list.
