DMaA, B is carrying on a one way conversation - He never has to see what A is saying but he shoves posts into A's face. A can put B onto Ignore. If A still has a problem ignoring B's posts even after putting him on Ignore, then A is the one who needs to grow a thicker skin. B of course is being a troll and probably knows that he can get underneath A's skin. But that's the Internet for you. Trolls can feel significant by playing these games. Tenchusatsu

Dear DMaA, B temporarily undoes the ignore on A so he can see one of A's posts. From what you describe, no temporary change is required. B can always see A's posts, with hide ignored turned off (show ignored selected). Hiding or showing posts from members on one's ignore list is a preference that every Member has control over. "he shoves posts into A's face." If A doesn't want to see any of B's posts, or only wants to see some of member B's posts, A should ignore B. This is the purpose of the Ignore list; it is designed to prevent member B from accessing Member A's active notification system, as well as from being able to send Member A private messages.
