Upgrade the ignore function to 'block' / Blocking Ignored Users

[Razasharp]

I think ignoring someone on a forum has never really worked from a users perspective. On vB you could still see the 'ignored' person had posted, and on XF when you ignore someone it doesn't prevent them from quoting you, seeing your threads, posting in them.

Usually when someone 'ignores' someone, what they really want to do is block them.

Any chance of this being included?

I have removed <xf:showignored wrapperclass="block-outer-opposite" /> from templates, so content stays hidden. Otherwise members just click 'show ignored content'.

And use force ignore when necessary.

Oh man! This could actually be a solution!
We could force 2 way ignore on both the oppressor and the oppressed and remove that from the template so they would never see each other?

Some of us are closer than others to that.

I came to say the same thing. Time is running out!

Or have a global ignore feature that allows controverisal people on that with the mods controlling how it all works.
