(6,783 posts)Would it be possible to upgrade the ignore list functionality?
Specifically, would it be possible to add (1) a date field showing when the DUer was added to the ignore list and (2) a field to either note the nature of the commentary or link to the specific thread that led to adding the DUer to the ignore list.
Sometimes when I put someone on my ignore list it is because I don't ever again want to read their commentary or interact with them. I want to permanently isolate myself.
But far, far more often when I add someone to my ignore list it is with the intention of removing them from that list after a few weeks or months - or after a particular issue is no longer being prominently discussed. I want a temporary time-out.
These added features would make it much easier to use the ignore list to make the distinction between permanent isolation and a temporary time-out.
Just a thought for your consideration.
