I don't like drama (except on TV) and I don't like confrontation. I don't care if it is seen as a cop-out, I still believe that in the cases I used the Ignore (three only) I did the right thing, for me, at the time, and for my continued enjoyment of this forum.
Well yea, I think that's a totally reasonable reaction. There's a difference between an expression of a negative perception and harassment. What I'm more speaking to is a default method of removing negative perceptions about oneself from the mouths of others by creating an environment where they don't exist. At least, that's what I was talking about when I responded to the post I was originally addressing.
