'ignore' feature

Seaxwyn

If you put someone on your ignore list, do they know?

I am sure they don't know, no. Well, they won't be notified but maybe they're not allowed to PM you in which case they would then find out...

You can select to only receive PMs from admins, so it wouldn't be a 100 giveaway even if.....

If someone is on ignore, do you really care though?

Is ignore broken again? It's telling me the user I'm trying to ignore doesn't exist.... (and I know it's case sensitive - it's even popping up the user's name, so it knows they DO exist)

I think the problem is if the person you want to add has a capital letter on their name, this has been a problem in the past which I'm sure will be ironed out as the techie guys get to it.

I remember that problem, hasn't it been going on more than a year? :rotfl:
I'm just going to have to stay out of certain forums

Yep. I had exactly the same problem trying to add someone to the buddy list the other day.

frivolous_fay: Instead of typing in the users name, try going to their profile page, and then use the "Add ********* to Your Ignore List" link.

That allowed me to work round the problem the other day, so maybe that will work for you as well?

No, the problem was fixed but with the w/end's upgrade some of the add ons to vBulletin especially for MSE are needing to be tweaked, such as the thanks button which is now fixed and running as before so give them a bit more time or add to MSE Neil's thread here...

Oh no it wasn't. As I just said, I've had it since.

MSE Ian/Neil are aware.
