Hell no, where would I get my laughs from during the day?

Even nut jobs like spidey occasionally have interesting things to say (in his case he gave me some great skating advice). But this one user who I intend to ignore has never added anything of value to AT.

Edit - I would have loved an ignore feature during the Ron Paul hysteria last year, there were ~5-10 users I would have put on the list.

You can't ignore me!! :|

Oh, I'm not one of the RPBots, so perhaps you meant someone else...just Ignore this Post.

It will take an especially annoying User to get on my Ignore list. I have a few in mind, but have managed to just skip over their Threads/Posts already, so I don't know if I'll use it. I suspect some will have me on their List though, but that's because they like to Fail.

well I'm up to 3 ignores of PN'ers, but they're trolls (and a truther) who don't contribute anything thoughtful and have proven themselves unable to admit when they're wrong or shown any proclivity to openmindedness. why argue with those who aren't there to listen? but i'm leaving on most other ones for the sheer enjoyment of their psychotic rants. why ignore a funny troll and miss out on the humor? I doubt I'll ignore anyone in OT.
