Off topic --- Ignore questions ... If a person on your ignore list sends you a private post, do you still get it? Do you learn of its existence? If a person on ignore lists changes their SI handle, are the ignore lists updated for their new handle or does posts under the new handle slip through? If everyone has a person on their ignore list, what purpose is served by letting the person continue posting? Can a person determine how many ignore lists include them? Why do some people inform the offensive poster of their decision to ignore them? This strikes me as almost a good-bye kiss. If you send a private message to someone who's ignoring you, are you informed that your message would probably not be read? If you un-ignore someone, can you see previously ignored posts? Obviously, I've not chosen to ignore anyone through this feature of SI yet. It's easy enough to click NEXT once I see their name. Cheers, PW. P.S. Anyone know the entomology of the word IGNORE?
