CR, Rest assured that I am all but allergic to the ban button. I think moderated threads have been the bane of SI. I have never used the ignore function. Those two "features" have gone far in killing the free exchange of diverse thoughts and knowledge in what are purported to be open forums for purposes of enlightened exchanges. What's worse, I see <ignore> and <ban> used primarily as petty little power plays by the otherwise ineffectual and effete.

That said, I will be the first to admit there are glaring exceptions to what I have posted above. - Holly
