I never did hear from you in reference to the following post.

127.0.0.1:3456/SI/~wsapi/investor/reply?s=subject29206+ignore&sreply=11500524

I heard about a week ago on one of the threads I read regularly that the "ignore" feature was available and have seen it on some profiles but not on others. Are you experimenting with the feature and turning it on and off, or is there something else which is doing that. I also heard that it enabled one to not only ignore messages from a poster, but those to him/her as well. I have not seen this at all. Is it true? How does it work? Anyway, I'm glad to see you giving it a shot.

I have to admit that I first heard of your "Ignore" implementation when someone on a thread was suggesting to others to ignore someone, the first half of the most strongly felt concern of the anti-ignore folks. It didn't turn into the lynching frenzy that they feared, however (thankfully) and I am still confident that with a little time for people to get used to it, ignore will quietly become a favorite feature of many on SI.
