@Moonchilde, your "IMO, a certain amount of "I wish there was a Block or Ignore function" is just a way of posting publicly "I don't like certain posters and I want a way to make them go away" cuts to the chase perfectly.
That's exactly how I view threads like this, especially when the OP refers, albeit vaguely, to a specific poster or posters.
Maybe it's just me, but I try to keep this place in perspective. It's just a message board, one that I happen to think is fairly well-run, all things considered. I don't expect it to cater to my every whim.
