Hi all!
I'm seriously considering implementing an ignore feature next. I've never used an ignore feature before, so I'm looking for suggestions from people who have used it at other boards to describe how it works and tell me what features they'd like to see.
I have a few specific questions:
  1. When you ignore someone, you can't see their posts, but can they see yours?
  2. If they can see your posts, can they reply to them, it's just that you can't see them.
  3. How public is ignore information. Can other people see who you're ignoring?
I'll post more questions as I think of them.

For those who expressed skepticism that an ignore feature would be appropriate for EvC, while I would definitely test it here, I would also listen to the membership regarding its becoming permanently enabled.
The feedback about it possibly causing fragmentation of discussions is a concern I share.
What do people think of a blocking feature - people you block couldn't reply to your messages.
