So now I don’t even get to control my own ignore list? Lookie here, the mask is slipping. Look at this troll wanting more unearned power over someone else.
Again, I’m suggesting that the ignored person work to be better, but it’s entirely within the power of the ignoring person to decide if they’ve earned their way back into the conversation or not. The ignored can do whatever they like, continue to be toxic, obsess over the ignore, whatever, but their self-correction shouldn’t be the responsibility of the ignoring user.
This it’s still weird to me how some people don’t get the point to just be good person and you won’t have that problem because most people don’t and won’t just ignore you just because.
first you say you need stronger ignore features in order to enjoy the forums better, now you say you want weaker ignore features so you can choose to interact with the person you ignored whenever you feel like it?
Are people really that up in arms about being ignored? I mean, yeah, not everyone is gonna like you and want to deal with you. That’s their problem, I’ve been ignored before, and it’s not really any sort of punishment or thing that harms my forum experience. It’s just someone who doesn’t want to talk to me, big whoop.
There is always this option, turn muted into the ignore we have now, which means those you mute have their messeges displayed with the “show “ignored” content” and then turn the ignore into what we are asking for.
How disingenuous. What you’re asking for isn’t a ‘stronger ignore’, it’s a nuclear button that everyone would be terrified of pressing and would actually take agency away from people that use it since they would now have to seek consent from someone else to change their personal settings.
You’re attaching fetters to the ignore function to make it less convenient to use, to stop people from using it in the first place.
If I ignore someone, it is entirely my choice whether I remove that ignore or not. You lost the privilege to be in this conversation by being garbage. I will decide when, and if, you’ve earned that privilege back.
