Don't worry, we let even the worst offenders back on eventually (usually).  &&

Its a simple choice , all of us can chose to Ignore, OR be Respectful and Polite, without name calling, insults or innuendo.
Otherwise, if the Ignore feature stops people from disagreeing/making negative comments on someone elses every single post n thread, then it has worked well. Maybe the ignore feature will make all people stop n think about what they are about to write, so that nothing disrespectful, rude or insulting gets written.

No one on here is perfect. Every single person can make the effort to keep things peaceful if thats what they really want.
Letting go of past grudges is the first step. Wipe the slate clean for a positive n peaceful 2013.
My coments arent directed at anyone specifically, just a hope that everyone can play nice if they chose that option.

Instead of the ignore feature, can we have a "personality defect" icon/warning system next to the Avatar? this way people will pick on posts less if they know someone has a disability - you don't laugh at people with defects in the street when you see them .

Maybe something along the lines of "prone to chronic exageration" or "lysdexic" or "obsesive compulive about math detail" etc?

We'd have to create a different one for just about all of us!!
