I think that would only cause problems and inflamatory arguments, and aren't we sick of them.

I think the idea is pretty good. You often see people ignoring others and they hardly know them. That's why I would totally support that idea.

i really wouldn't let it worry you. if they're ignoring you then just accept that they are and move on. sometimes it can even be a total accident anyway because people just hit the ignore link without actually meaning too. besides anything else i can imagine that in a lot of instances people wouldn't fill anything out anyway and you'd be none the wiser. it's not that the idea doesn't have anymerrit, i just can't see the admins going for it though. it sounds like more trouble than it's worth.


just my thoughts. Dan.

Not only is it more trouble than it's worth, but look at it this way. When people ignore u in real life, are they required to give u an explanation as to why? Sure, you would like one, but the reality is, if they wanted to tell u why they were ignoring u, they would have sent u a message explaining their reasons in the first place. Given this, I think it would be a feature no one would utilize, and could only cause more drama.

lol yes peoples, I honestly don't see a reason for this. It just wouldn't work...in my opinion...but, I for one, will let the admins know about the suggestion...

Eh, I don't see the point in putting it in. The people that are ignoring me I either don't know, or have there account disabled. Only like seven or so, and most of them I go "Who?" I think it was probably an accident for most of them.

i have a stranger on mine too, sure i would like to know why but the person barely logs in. I figure it is his or her loss.

they are ignoring you because they have chosen to ignore you. if this bothers you, then you need to find better things to do with your time besides wondering why someone who is represented by text is ignoring you.

I agree with many others that this idea of putting in a reason for an ignore would be a very bad move. You can't assume that somebody is going to be honest when giving their reason. They might well say something that will just cause more needless stupid drama than we already have. I understand that some people just want to be liked and paid attention to, but not everyone is going to like or want to talk to absolutely everyone else. Plus, since we have quite a variety of personalities and temperaments on the Zone, to be blunt, you are just bound to get on somebody's nerves whoever you are, and if you do get on somebody's nerves, they are within their rights to use the Ignore feature that's available to them. How often can you permanently ignore a person in real life?

Nobody's jumping, unless you define any disagreement as jumping.
