    Yep, despite all the vehement denials. And it was used to invade a recipe thread that banned trolls, including the sock's creator. Imagine a fake husband making a sock on an obscure political forum just to post in a recipe thread.

    No one would give a shit, of course, if the creator of said sock just displayed some honesty for once and admitted it.

    "Announcing" that you're moving somebody into the "ignore" penalty box is merely a courtesy
    so that they won't feel the necessity of addressing you directly with words that you will not see.

    PollyAnna PoliTalker has had me on his/her/its "ignore list" from practically day one, and even politely sent me a PM to inform me discreetly.
    I unload on PollyAnna all the time, largely because I find his/her/its "signature" laughingly pretentious,
    but I don't speak to him/her.it directly because I know that he/she/it won't see it.

    Courtesy is a rare commodity on this forum, but the ignore list notification is at least one example of it.
    Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel. Samuel Johnson, 1775
    Religion....is the opiate of the people. Karl Marx, 1848
    Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Kris Kristofferson, 1969

    Oh....well, if you ignore them, and they keep it up, guess who looks deranged and obsessed? Something to consider....it depends on what's important...to you

    It doesn't work for Toxic TOP, either. Example: She will never, ever reply to anything I post. Instead, she reads every last post I make, then makes snide comments about them to others back in her "Tribute Thread." The quintessential, the epitome even! of passive-aggressive childish behavior, eh? lol

    Heheheh. That's half the fun of informing someone not to bother, they are on your ignore list. Some will get the hint; others will obsessively reply to you and look like cuckoos.

    In a lot of cases, someone has proclaimed that they have taken someone "off ignore" and are now putting them back "on ignore"
