If they did, I didnt have to see it - which is a blessing

Although I will take this opportunity to say again that I2.0 needs a slight tweak so that when someone logs in to reply, it checks the poster they are replying to hasnt ignore 2.0'd them, and rejects the post if so.

It'd be perfect then, and probably save the site....

If someone you have on Ignore replies to you, you won't see it, so what does it matter?
Or do you log in and out, to see who may or may not be replying to you? No amount of tweaking 2.0 is going to fix that sort of behaviour.

actually, you misunderstand my drive, but since i didnt explain thats my fault

With a bit more safeguarding of its rules, ignore 2.0 would mean that people who act in a way generally likely to be found offensive would find the number of posts they could actually interact with would slowly reduce, effectively making them into viewing participants who cant interact, reducing their impact. Its a darwinian motivator :-)

Dont pretend this place hasnt suffered because of the new hobby of a small clique of genuinely unpleasant people.

that "clique" was here for years before you'd even heard of the place, you soppy fucking herbert

On the other hand 2.0 gives people the opportunity to wreck b3ta for anyone they've taken a dislike to.
It's not a good thing, and encourages cliques,. The original ignore only affected the person doing the ignoring, which was fine, as it was their choice to use it.
