[QUOTE="Northkill, post: 2583939, member: 110890"] Good questions. I've engaged with folks as you describe but you face it on a bigger scale than I do, I'm sure. You gotta do what works for you. For myself, I've been just trying to scroll by stuff that seems of little value (or worse). I say trying. There are exceptions - the double-standard thing. But let me start here... Since I haven't used the feature, you might have to explain how it works. I assumed that when you "ignore" someone, you're the only one who doesn't see their posts. So, they can keep undermining you or your products and you're the only one who doesn't see it? Guess I'll have to try it after all, so I know how it works. Where should I start? 😜 A little like when it was time to start thinking about dating - it was "man, now who of the bunch is it gonna be?" (spoiler - I ended up really lucky in the end) 🤠 I figure there would be an honorable way to appeal to a forum manager if things become too objectionable. For me it becomes a weapon when "I don't like or agree with what you're saying, so I'm going to ignore you". On the other hand, when its character/ego related (not unlike some of what you described), I can see where you're coming from. But can you just let it go? We are made up differently, that's why I gave the caveat on its use. Do what works for you but do it with integrity is what I'm after. [/QUOTE]
