  • Is putting people on Ignore rude?

    I've just added three people to my Ignore list and I am wondering if it was a bit rude of me. Are there any pitfalls that I should avoid with the Ignore procedure?

    What if the only people who answer you are on your ignore list?

      It's obviously a bit snarky to tell somebody that they're on your ignore list, but considering that the person is on your ignore list they might deserve a bit of snarkiness.

          how can you tell if you're on someone's ignore list?

            Ask them a question directly, and if they don't reply...


            But basically, the person can't really tell that they are on your ignore list, so it is more of a personal sort of thing. It (presumably) makes your 'Poly experience just that much more pleasant, and doesn't cause much harm to whoever you are ignoring.

              yes yes but they always have the option of taking it off and looking at the thread just to see what you said. We're human we're gonna look.

              And no. If that person or persons is being a ****e to you then put them on the ignore list. You don't have to listen if you don't want.

                Why not scan through their posts?

                Ignore is way more obtrusive, and everybody quotes each other anyways.

                  That's the problem -- usually it's impossible to ignore the people that you want to ignore, since they're obnoxious trolls that everybody feeds.

                  It's the annoying people I want to ignore, though, not the people who are jerks. It's more enjoyable to tear the jerks some new *******s.

                        Gotta go with loin on that one. It's just more fun because they are usually so into themselves or their opinions that it's oh so easy to push buttons and be an a$$

                          I've never used the ignore list, nor will I ever.

                          It reminds me of the "lalala--I can't hear you!" people from elementary school.
