Right enough of that.
So we've had Ignore 2.0 for nearly a whole day now.

Anyone noticed a difference? Has b3ta been destroyed forever or is it just the same old shit?

Also: Bankers and markets have gone mental because someone said something, i think we should replace them all with robots.

Ignore 1,0 you stop seeing the person who you're ignorings posts.
Ignore 2.0, you stop seeing the person who you're ignorings posts and they can't see or reply to yours.
