Is the “Ignore” function not working?

Or more accurately, overworking.

I’d not put anyone on ignore in weeks, yet Muriel, said I’d 106 posters on “Ignore.”

I laboriously removed all but five (really vile and/or stupid) posters from the list and refreshed the page.

A couple hours later it said I had sixteen posters on Ignore. I fixed it again. Today it says I’ve eight posters on Ignore.

What’s going on? Is anyone else having the same problem with this site?

Maybe it's working in reverse and those are the members ignoring you ? 106 posters ignoring you - that may be a record.

Make it 107

OP, this site is running on technology from 2007. Be glad the page even refreshes.

Definitely a user error, OP.

Obviously it's including the people who place you on ignore.

Sometimes unignoring people takes multiple attempts and time.

Seems to be OK for me, I only have one exceptionally vile person on ignore and they've stayed ignored awhile with nobody else added. I have a pretty high tolerance for bullshit but we all have our limits

OK, OP I think I can offer you an explanation. I just put a few sockpuppets of the vile above mentioned person on ignore, my ignore list blew out to six - then as some of those were ff'd into oblivion by others they also dropped off my ignore list, its now sitting at three. I suspect that is what is happening for you, you are ignoring posters that get ff'd unsurprisingly, and they then drop off your ignore list. I'm guessing I'll have to manually readd them to my ignore list once their timeouts are finished and you'll have to do the same

Thanks for the insights, R8

My list did the opposite. It ballooned. I deflated it and it reinflated itself several hours later. After repeated tries over several days, it’s now dropped back down into the single digits.

Maybe Muriel [italic] is [/italic] listening after all.

OP, you're probably hitting the Ignore button when you think you're pounding F&F.

Based on how you seem, we know it's not the W&W button you're meaning to hit.

by Anonymousreply 10September 6, 2025 1:49 AM

I think it has to do with the proliferation of sock puppets and the runaway time out issue.
