No it kills their posts.  :cool: :unsure:  :(

I tried Timmay just as an experiment, but it didn't kill the threads he started.  :(   :P

But I took him off as he such a valuable member, I didn't temporarily put two posters on the list and so far I'm enjoying the results.   :D

You can't ignore me that easily, Mongers.

At another forum I use they have one and....in practice it didn't work for me.
It hides the posts of members but it still says "This post is hidden because X is on your ignore list"
and of course when those idiots are weighing in....the temptation is too high.

Yes, but you could with me, just think of all those inane posts about cycling that you could happily ignore.  :P

I don't need no machine to tell me what to ignore!  I am a man, goddammit, not some bot-loving, brie eating monster.

It replaces posts with "You are ignoring this user. Show me the post" as well.

I assume that none of you can ignore me anyways.

I don't understand the point of an ignore feature. Does one have so little will that they can't ignore a post on their own? :huh:

Raz have you also considered people who don't ignore you posts, don't respond to them.  ?

Because that's the feeling I get with mine in general.  :P

Actually it doesn't bother me.  See, posting things I think are clever and funny are good enough for me.  One of the perks of being crazy is you always have an audience. :lol:

I find it incredibly useful at P'dox. It saves me from having to read so much stupid stuff, and from getting me so infuriated as to having to answer and getting bogged down. My work productivity greatly appreciates it.

Putting Timmay on ignore certainly drops the number of viewable threads.
