I am opposed to an ignore button. While there are advantages, the disadvantages outweigh them considerably, imho. There is a thread somewhere on the topic. It's been largely touts of non-reporting bulletin board 'stocks' who've asked for it. And they wouldn't really use it - they would just pretend to use it, and advocate its use to their victims. Please, Go2net - don't hand the carpstock touts another weapon. They've already got ambulance chasers hunting down the location of posters - and posters' families, i might add - by filing frivolous lawsuits and typing up 'subpoenas' which they hand to SI, while SI refuses to comment on its policy regarding their disclosure of its posters and their families. Despite being asked repeatedly to do so - #reply-10716349
