If you want to ignore someone's output, it should mean exactly that - you cannot see it at all - and the only way to see it is to un-ignore them again.
I have no current desire to ignore anyone but a proper, comprehensive ignore function would go a long way to keeping the peace in future.
The existing system is akin to two drunks arguing in the street, and then being separated by a police officer - but you can still see his lips move and his friends are also quoting what he just said !

My current thinking is that there will be two levels to the ignore function - first is "Hide their posts, but let me see them if I really want to", pretty much as it works here (but having hopefully solved the quote issue), and the second is "Don't let me know they even exist". The latter will even hide threads that they've started, I think.
Nobody, however, will be able to ignore admins or moderators.

I see zero value in a "Hide their posts, but let me see them if I really want to" system. That's no different from a self-imposed "I'll skip over that post and not read it" approach. It's human nature to look. It's more frustrating half the time to fight with your urge to read what they've written than it would be to read it anyway. I have plenty of experience in this field !

But, when it’s a free to use forum run by volunteers then it should be down to the people who put the hard hours of graft in to decide what and where and how. I’m sure @digitalscream has more than enough experience of what works/doesn’t work here now to put together an iteration of forum software that is much better than it is now. It will never please everyone all the time.. but as a free to use forum we have the choice to use it and get the most we can out of it, or not use it. Simples.
