hahahah...you know me so well, FBR. i could care less. the "ignore" function isn't something new. it's pretty old. anyone who has used a newsreader has is probably familiar with using a filter better known as a "killfile". IMHO, it was never a useful funtion. for example, i can still post. i can read other messages. i can still read her messages. i can still respond to her messages. she doesn't have to read them, but others will and if you put enough people in your killfile things the newsgroup starts to look pretty empty. all the "ignore" funtion does is put a couple of virtual fingers in one ears to protect them from things they don't want to hear. well, i hope those fingers are lubed. perhaps, it's societal mores of today. it's all about expecting validation and ego boosts from others. that's fine for the Oprah Winfrey show but, why anyone would go around giving out an automatic "atta boy" on their own lesiure time is beyond me.
