Good man...
I've never understood why anyone would choose to use the ignore button...what's the point of being on a forum, if not to hear people's opinion, whether you agree with it or not.
read back through your posts for the explanation as why people might want to use the ignore button Reg.

People who use the ignore button have superiority complexes. Certain people on here think others are beneath them. That's how it looks anyway. Others far too touchy and sensitive. Why it's a us vs them thing on here I don't know? Just post your opinion and back it up if it's challenged regardless of what anyone says or how the label you. I respect people who have a view and stick to it over those who either follow the crowd, change their views by the day or think the popular opinion is the only one worth airing.

I'd imagine there are people who feel posting their views on a subject is not worth the hassle of being branded a mong or a Jed shafter. I think that's a shame myself.
That works both ways as well Batch. Very often I can't be arsed with posting a more realistic/non story telling/positive view as it not worth the hassle. I usually just end up looking like an argumentative cunt regardless then.

I ignore 1 person, and it's because I'm not that interested in the freemasons or conspiracy theories. (To be clear, I do also have a superiority complex, but that's not why I use the ignore button).

I meant 'Jed shafter' in the context of brown nosing man love, not someone waning him to fail. My point was it is the same at both poles of the argument, and that neither is necessarily correct or incorrect. I think Arriba expressed it better.

Yep. There's a number of people over the last couple of pages particularly who haven't even bothered to comment on the appointment (myself included) although we've obviously all got a view. People who use the ignore button have superiority complexes. Certain people on here think others are beneath them. That's how it looks anyway. Others far too touchy and sensitive. Why it's a us vs them thing on here I don't know? Just post your opinion and back it up if it's challenged regardless of what anyone says or how the label you.

Well said. Pretty much the point I made in another thread a few days ago, which iirc somebody jumped on.

If anyone is too scared to post in case someone else disagrees with them and calls them names, then they don't deserve an opinion in the first place. Grow up.

The ignore button is a strange one. I don't use it, but presumably those who do, do so because they get really riled up by that poster.
I can't be the only one who would be 'unignoring' momments later because I want to see if that persons latest comments wound me up. Isn't that human nature, to hope someone says something that you can use to provoke a row?
