You are, after all, here to have your posts read.

Makes sense to me that they would tell you they're placing you on ignore. You can't improve w/o knowing to what extent you've offended someone, if that was what happened. Secondly, they're letting you know not to bother posting any more for their benefit...they won't be able to see your posts. Third, the ignore has more impact when the ignoree knows about it.

Methinks you doth protest a little bit too much.
