Does vbulletin impliment 'ignore user' functionality?

I know IPB does. I've never looked for it on this board before now, and can't seem to find it.

Well, it's something that the staff has discussed a lot historically. At one point, the feature was turned off with the thougth being "if you aren't mature enough to deal with folks that irritate you, then you shouldn't be here anyway" but we ended up turning it back on for a variety of reasons (not the least of which was to make all of our software patches work well together).

If you HAVE to ignore someone, go to their user profile and click the "user lists" dropdown menu. The bottom one should be "ignore user". Selecting that should put them on your ignore list. However, you cannot ignore staff, which means that you can neither ignore me nor one-touch ban and clean me. The reason for that should be obvious, despite what a raging asshole I am (or at least supposed to be).

And you can't ignore administrators, so you'll just have to learn to appreciate The_Jazz.

We have, at times, cleared all the ignore settings though. Frankly, people should be able to handle seeing others they may not like using the same site.

Ah, bullshit. I use it to great effect.

You call it petty, I call it aversion.

It's literally exactly the same thing, yes.

This is also a great reason to have Exhibition blocked. It prevents damage to my eyesight.

^^ I think he meant that his exhibition part is blocked, in which case, yes, I can picture jazz saying that to him.
