I've never even thought about adding anyone to my ignore list, but I've read such dribble from certain posters recently that seem to add absolutely nothing to the subject matter except their own twisted logic and ill-mannered behavior (that is repeated over and over again), so it just made sense to not even see their posts.
I have to say, this feature is great! I am not an overly sensitive person, by all means, but I agree with some that Off Topic has been pretty bad lately. Instead of trying to silence those individuals, it made sense for me to just self-regulate the content I view.
Some might say if you don't like the content, then just don't open the thread or don't open Off Topic. This does not make sense to me, because I do like most of the content in most of the threads. It is only a select few that I don't appreciate. I do like to see other points of view that I don't necessarily agree with, as long as they are logical, articulate, well thought out, respecting the fact that there are other points of view, and not degrading other posters. Name calling and trying to force your opinion on others just shows that your position is weak.
The ignore list is a great tool, I expect others will find it helpful as well. Now you all can add me to your ignore list.
