Strap Yourselves In
I don't think there's anything wrong with using the ignore feature to put someone on 'time out'. This is like a parenting feature to teach naughty children to not misbehave.

Currently I have two users on ignore, asfasdf and maxie. This isn't permanent, it's just until such time as they can learn to stop doing the following:

"Crispy! Hey Crispy!"
"Hey!"
"Crispy, hello, hey! You're a faggot!"
"Fuck you Crispy!"
"Hey! Cirspy!3 HJeloou?"
"Craaspoy due daggty."
"Hey CRUAPY:"
"Crispy, you're a faggot!#@"
"Hi Crispy die faggot."
"DHEY@ CRASPY!"
"Shut the fuck upCrispy"
"Crispy you're a faggt."
"cRapys Faggit"
"Hey what the fuck cCRiPYSY Die."
"Hi Crispy."
"Hey"
"CRIIIIIISPY"
"La creatura el Crpspera mia dios"
"FUCK YOU CRISPY"
"You're such a dumbfuck Crapsy"
"Hey CRISPY CRISPY CIRSPY PAY ATTENTYION TO ME PLAESE>"
"Crispy why are you so mean to me?"
"CRISPY@##"
"Crapsy die KILL URSLELF"
"CRISPY"
"Hi Crispy I fukced you mom"
"CRIPY"
"CRROOOOOOOOPSY"

and so on.

A wise decision, no matter what pains someone enough to have them lash out, it's not your responsibility to be a victim to their negative exuberance. Your altruism ends where you want it to, as you can only be made accountable for yourself, so let the children have their meltdown, and if they use better words to express themselves, maybe you'll listen.

Every day I ignore my family, the brats playing in the street, and clipboard surveys. It's a built-in mechanism. Delegating such a basic function to a machine is a stone's throw away from replacing your healthy lungs with a mechanical respirator because breathing is too much effort.

That's very sweet of you to say, Merc. Allah's blessings be upon you.

As for the original topic - I appreciate that the feature is available. I've yet to find any use for it, but I understand Crispy's stance perfectly as having starstruck kids pester you like that is a bore.

The ignore feature should be stripped of its functionality as it only seeks to promote weakness and cowardice. If anyone tries to ignore someone else it should automatically post in a thread of shame that X person wants to ignore Y.. you can even have fun with it like "X can't handle the bantz with Y" or "X is butthurt and tried to ignore Y" etc.

Also bring back CONDUCTOR WE HAVE A PROBLEM but have it do the same thing.
You won't be able to sleep tonight after you'll find out I've put someone on ignore in adblock like this:

Previosly in this thread someone referred to the Codex as a "small community". Totally fake news, folks. Codex is a very prestigious magazine available in countless nations around the world. Responsible for brexit, election of Trump, the destruction of ISIS and bravely flying the flag of toxic maskulinity. And now constantly monitored and infiltrated by both CIA, FSB and Mossad all vying for supremacy by trying to outshitpost each other.
