    I don't believe it is something that is fixable.

    Ignore is for quitters.

    You'll have to do what I do and ignore them, that's scroll past their posts without reading, on your own.

    Hey, it's not as bad as some forums. There was a forum (about a completely different subject) that I abandoned because the entire mod team and policy was insane. They're not all nuts here.

    ...yet

    Hopefully that never happens.

    I mean, if abuse were allowed here, it would make sense to use the ignore feature. But all the ignore feature does is shield you from opinions that you disagree with, since abuse is pretty quickly cracked down upon.

    True. I'm not even sure what the ignore feature is there for, other than to shield you from opinions that you don't want to hear.

    Yes, yes, sure, sure.

    And trolls, and posters you have attempted to have civil and fair exchanges with but they never answer or address anything you've actually said ... I mean trolls ... not that we have any here of course

    No we just use it "to shield ourselves from opinions that we don't want to hear"

    Not to shield ourselves from trolls and freaks.

    Right.

    So, what kind of reaction were you hoping for with that kind of post ?

    No worries, I'll be scrolling by any further B.S. and baitings you offer here.

    I've used it once. There comes a point where an attack with no grounding counts as abuse in my book. These things tend to get overlooked so long as they're not consistent.

    There is a option in vbulletin to enable ignoring moderators. Speaking of which, please remove post in this thread that have nothing to do with my question.
