A couple things. First, I genuinely don’t like to ignore people, threads make less sense and many times the people who I would ignore for drama reasons, make interesting bball points. Secondly and more importantly, it’s never one poster in a vacuum. Other posters comment, the mods get pulled into it, and the flow of the board gravitates towards that drama. Thirdly, even when people are ignored enough of the spat comes through that I end up un-ignoring them just to catch up. Then I realize I’m smack dab in the middle of drama again.
I come here to relax and enjoy a topic I love. Not to try and filter out people and threads and topics. it’s easier to just stop coming or at least disassociate emotionally to the point that I stop participating.
