27. I absolutely *love* the ignore option.
I think y'all are nutty for avoiding it. No, I don't have anyone on ignore right now, but I have in the past.

It's a lovely feature designed to help a person avoid being rude or even getting tombstoned for smacking the verbal crap out of someone who seems to richly deserve it.

It's got nothing to do with whether I like a person, or even whether I've got thick skin. The single individual who long ago made it to my Bozo Bin did so by spectacularly and persistently trying to push my buttons. I figured sooner or later I'd come home after a pissy day and he/she/it would be ripe for the smackdown he'd been begging for. Ignore lifted that fear from me gently and put a soothed smile in it's place.

The Ignore feature, - I love it. I recommend it. Because everyone gets rubbed the wrong way by someone and GD is a living example of how little restraint y'all really have. :hi:
