Methinks someone has taken the shotgun approach to ignoring as a way of making a statement. With a bit of sleuthing you can find there are other users who have an ignore count of 1 who haven't made a post in months.
EDIT: Got a 1 ignore listed on mine now as well. 
There will be user accounts that have just been created by persons who for whatever reason want to monitor the forum, and can easily be used to stuff around to create some controversy. I think anyone with one or two ignores can safely "ignore" that as any reflection on them.
This wasn't intended this as a popularity contest though, it's to help some members keep themselves out of run-ins with certain other members. It also seems to have created an opportunity for some individuals to reflect on their behavior, and that is very much a positive.
