It’s per thread not the whole forum.You can still post to your fellow posters on one subject ,block on another.
No, account-wide ignore should apply to the entire forum. If I ignore you, that means I don’t want to read your dross, whether on this subject or a different one.

Even on another subject like cute panderens??
It should not function as it does in X/Twitter. Reason being, if you cannot see what is said, then if you have valid recourse to flag or otherwise contest it, you cannot do so. You must rely on others to do so.
On X/Twitter, blocking being two-way can be abused easily.
And we have a winner. This is exactly the response I was looking for.
Ignoring should be something you’re doing for your own “protection” (we’ll use that word even if I think it’s a bit of an exaggeration). You viewing it as some sort of punishment is EXACTLY why some of us view this as problematic (not JUST the philosophical reasons I explained earlier).
People wanting Account-wide ignore–if this is how you are thinking of it…then that’s why some of us are against it. There must be a reason why this forum has ways to post on different characters and it’s either not disclosed or the myriad of other reasons people in here have offered are valid whether you like it or not.
I will support account-wide ignore if it means the person being ignored also doesn’t see the person doing the igorning’s posts or replies. If you want to control that much of your forum experience, and you’re NOT interested in trying to “inflict punishment” then there’s nothing wrong with that and if nothing else, should prevent further conflict between the both of you.
Even on another subject. The beauty of it is that ignored posts aren’t deleted, the person ignoring gets a little button they can click to reveal an ignored post. So if the ignored person is being good and the replies to whatever the ignored person is saying are promising, the ignoring person can click that button and see if they’re worth engaging in conversation again.

thats under the assumption that person is being one. ive been told i was getting place on ignored because the orc guy said i was a troll, but hes still replying to me so thats was a lie.
but besides that i dont have an issue with him or any other so i dont want to be placed on ignored and then have the entire forums a ghost town bc ppl are upset over OPINIONS.

Jeez and it gets even more rabbit-holey than that. Now I want the ignores to be permanent. 
Why would topic matter if you ignore someone, I mean honestly most people if they chose to ignore someone it’s because they don’t want to interact with someone for one reason or another so why would it matter if it’s this topic or another topic because in my book you’d still be the same terrible person I ignored for whatever reason I ignored you if I ignored you.

it’s basically the same thing,just if I ignore you I don’t see my post and I don’t see yours til I have permission to under block it from you.
Oh, get off your cross you wanna-be martyr. If you put up bad takes and garbage posts, yes, you should be punished. You and your ilk use alts to circumvent entirely earned ignores, not to display some mistaken ‘bravery’ against ‘oppression’.
You’re just terrified that you won’t be able to use the loophole of free accounts and alt-bombing to cause chaos any longer, so you want to attach as many strings to any account-wide enforcement as possible to make it as unpleasant as possible for everyone to try and corral bad behavior.

No. Suffer. Look upon the conversation you threw away the chance to be a productive member of and seethe in the fact that you cost yourself the opportunity to participate in it. You’re grounded from these interactions. Go to your room, sit in the corner, whatever it takes.
i never heard of this. is there any forums that does this? ignoring a person for ONE topic and then suddenly friendly on the next? lol wtf.
im not trying to be rude to you, but i think people really honestly need to learn to seriously ignore people with any tools or have some self control. i have yet to use the ignore feature bc 1. idk how and 2. i really dont care.
its not that deep, these forums are seriously not that serious folks.
Threads, you may have a disagreement on one subject but not the other.
Am I allowed to make a suggestion in a discussion?
A ‘disagreement’ doesn’t catch ignores from well-adjusted folk. Ignores are for people that go off the deep end and either relentlessly derail or troll topics, post spam or other useless dross, or are offensive and hateful. Disagreements aren’t any of the above.

i never said you couldnt. please dont think the “tone of my text” is aggressive like most of you like to do lol.
But that doesn’t change that someone will still more than likely see you the same as they do regardless of thread or topic, I am a prime example of that, I could careless if it’s this topic or say an elf thread since I spend a fair amount of time in them as well, if someone is bad enough I have ignored them here, then I don’t wanna see what they say in the elf thread either and that’s even if say they were agreeing with everything I was saying there.
It’s a vibe thing for me, if I don’t get a positive vibe from someone then I don’t want them in my conversations or circles.

Ignores aren’t a punishment and shoudlnt be viewed as such. I wont bother responding to the rest of your tyrade…i’ll just assume it must be late wherever you are.
