# i don't really understand how the ignore 2.0 thing works
if someone puts me on ignore, they can still see my posts AND comment on them, but i can't see theirs..? is that right?

seems weird

# The idea is that you can't see them and they can't see you.
It's a horrifically broken system, cobbled together to pander to some weeping precious flowers on /qotw.

# fun sponge has me on ignore, but comments on my posts
very queer

# Queer?
I thought sponges were hermaphrodites.

# that suggests he logs out comments and then logs in
it's an awful lot of effort just to be rude to someone and stupidly sort of makes ignore 2.0 worthwhile, because you can't see whatever it is he's gone to the trouble of saying.
No one wants ignore 2.0, but as long as people keep being shit to each other I imagine it'll stay.

# Really?
2.0 is shit. Desperately shit. It excludes people from the conversation and interaction on here and has probably hurt the site overall.

perhaps he un-ignores me, then comments

# out of interest, are you saying that you now agree ignore2.0 is shit?
You did seem to be sitting on the fence about it when the initial debate was bubbling away.

# as I said I'd love to see it gone
But as long as people are trolling I think it serves some flawed use.

I was talking about the feeble attempt at trying to be witty at others, when they can't see the mighty wit?

But I've not noticed them putting each other on ignore and then posting in those threads.

There's a fair bit of 2.0ing over there. Seriously, it's fucked.

... and to be fair, if ever one user (almost) justified the existence of ignore2.0, it's SpanishWombat.

# oh fucking hell, anyone who is upset by any of this needs to man/woman up [delete as applicable]
and remember it's just a silly website.

Being called rude names was part and parcel of the b3ta experience, before it was neutered and overrun by delicate little flowers who only like each other's posts because they're all such good lovely mates.
