    This has been bothering me for a while,

    Its really a long a laborious process to add somebody to my ignore list.

    Especially when contrasted to my buddy list which, as far as I can tell, serves no useful purpose whatsoever.

    Is it a big job to add an option to that drop down menu you get when you click a user name to include "Ignore User"? Cause that would absolutely make my day.

    3 Clicks? Your life is that busy, and this is such an issue, that 3 clicks is a problem? Jesus save me.

    The quickest way is to simply not read their posts, surely?

    But reading the posts of people you would ignore gives you new reasons to hate them everyday!

    tba, if this is your biggest worry in life, you're one lucky bastid.

    Store this url into your taskbar/favourites;

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/profile.php?do=addlist&userlist=ignore&u=

    and then pop the users id at the end.

    Well, you're right, it does take longer to put someone on ignore than to add them as a buddy. However, personally I barely use the ignore feature, theres a few people I just can't tolerate but not sufficient usage to warrant any concern over it.

    If you're using it so often that the length of time to use it p1sses you off, you must be one angry bastid :D

    How many posters are on your ignore list?
    Would it be quicker to set up your own BB and not let anyone on?

    If I wanted to ignore somebody, I'd use good ol' blink 'n' scroll.

    But I don't ever tbh.

    Adding someone to your ignore list is simply admitting that they've won....much better fun to hate them right back but make sure it ends up that you're the one they want to ignore...
