We did, but given how obscure the controls are, and that the thread linked is locked (hence not easily seen), it can be pretty hard for people to get an actual useful answer to the question.

Just to clarify, I wasn't admonishing TheBigeb for posting this thread, just grinding my teeth because it's not a thread I love seeing on the front page, since people tend to get opinionated on the subject. Incidentally, if you follow that link, you'll find out how to add those people to your ignore list.

Good times.

In case anyone doesn't want to bother going to the linked locked thread.

Up top of this page is your forum user name. Click on that, then click on the 'edit my profile' button. Then on the left side you'll see a link to 'ignore' preference. You can put people on your ignore list there.

Potentially of critical importance: Don't just copy/paste names into the field - some user names have extra spaces that don't show up when displayed, but that are needed to block them correctly. Just start typing the name you want to block in the entry field and the list will start to auto fill possible names.
