> [@Freudian\_Slit](#): > > No one on mine. Plus the way it works is that when you ignore someone and they have a post it says, “X post is not shown b/c poster is on your ignore list” but you can click on it to see what they posted, right? I’d be too unable to resist the temptation of clicking. This is exactly what I think would happen to me … so no, no one on my list. ---

Yes I have several people on the official block list and concurrently blocked with the VBulletin Manager. If anyone is hesitant to put someone on their block list for fear of becoming obsessed with the posts you can’t see, just try it anyways. As the OP said herself, she thought she’d just get too curious but it hasn’t happened. ---

No. The World is my ignore list, I don’t require help to disregard the opinions of others. ---

I have a couple people on my ignore list. most I haven’t seen for awhile and I suspect have been banned (too lazy to check). the two who i occasionally see post are actually both liberal (IIRC) like myself on general political issues. ---

But, Alice! I’ve changed! Honestly, I’m not like that anymore. Won’t you reconsider? ---

Just one person on my ignore list, their shtick got really old, really fast and never seemed to change ---

Not any more. Everybody who was on it in the past has been banned. ---

It’s been a long time, so I had to check. There is exactly one. Not sure if s/he is even still posting. How would I know? ---

Why is this whole thread blank? 😃 I love my ignore list. **Wilbo523** , it’s akin to fast-forwarding through the commercials. ---

I also only have one person on it. I don’t think I’m the type to forgive and forget–I have a very high threshold for bullshit, so if someone exceeded that threshold and made my list, there’s not much chance for redemption. Having said that, I really don’t recall what the poster did to get on my list. I just know it must have been bad. ---

I’ve had 4 people on my list. One is no longer a member and one just posts so damn much that threads became a bit confusing and annoying because people are always replying to him/her and it makes the thread hard to read. So I took that person off. So now I’ve just two people on my list. ---

No - there’s one person I may put on my ignore list because they’re mentally unstable and litigious, but only if they contact me further. Otherwise it seems a strange and pointless thing to do tbh. ---

Just the one person, but I think they’ve been banned - I haven’t checked. ---

> [@Ludovic](#): > > I have a lot of people on my ignore list. Those who I ignore for arguing a conserative viewpoint in an intolerable/lying/trollish fashion slightly outnumber those who I ignore for arguing a liberal viewpoint in the same manner, and running a close third are those who are one-note trolls of a nonpolitical variety or otherwise annoying people. Christ. Is there anybody \*not \*on your ignore list? ---
