I don't know how it works, talking about the ignore and unignore issue
Just try it. Click Ignore, after that the button toggles to Unignore. Or Show/Hide (this one doesn't work well on my mobile). There's no permanent change if you don't want it.

Now I'm kind of having this confusion on this, I haven't ignored anybody since I started using this Forum (haven't seen any reason to anyway) but my question is,
"IF SOMEONE IGNORES ANOTHER USER, CAN I UNIGNORE THAT USER OR IS IT ME THAT MISTAKENLY IGNORED THAT USER TO BE ABLE TO UNIGNORE IT?"
"IF SOMEONE IGNORES ANOTHER USER, CAN I UNIGNORE THAT USER OR IS IT ME THAT MISTAKENLY IGNORED THAT USER TO BE ABLE TO UNIGNORE IT?"
Of course, you can remove users that you have set "ignore" from the list.
Just go here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;sa=ignprefs
On that page, a list of all the users you have ignored appears. Remove the names of the ones you no longer want to ignore.
I know but the question is can i UNIGNORE someone I didn't IGNORE? That's what have been confusing me.

Why? You like reading shitposts? A combination of Report and Ignore makes it easier to find the posts worth reading.Not that like I love reading shitpost don't get me wrong, is just that I find these whole thing confusing. I don't know how it works, talking about the ignore and unignore issue, just want to get it straight that's all, because I feel I have touched a button that I'm not suppose touch or that I have clicked by accident.

Why? You like reading shitposts? A combination of Report and Ignore makes it easier to find the posts worth reading.I also never ignore anyone. I usually do the reading filter, just looking.
But, maybe because I don't navigate in areas of the forum where these users usually post.

By knowing who ignores who might cause a little bit of problem (like hate or something) because users won't find it ok to quote or reply whosoever have ignored them, so is best to let it be hidden as it is.

I noticed such happening severally and I don't know if I'm the one who did it or not.

I'm glad there's no way to know who's on who's ignore list. That would add one more layer of drama to the forum, which is something we definitely do not need.
I'm sure everything will be fine and no drama will ensue as long as the user doesn't announce his ignore list.I know anyone can ignore anyone for any reason, but fortunately no one knows who ignored who. I agree it should be private enough, but someone there can publish their ignore list regardless of the purpose.
I have less than 20 users on ignore list, maybe there will be more users as time goes on especially for those who ignore rules and keep repeating the same mistake.

Don't be surprised if there are certain individuals that would use them as bragging rights lol
If you think someone's giving you the cold shoulder, the best bet is to message them directly and ask.
If you expect a response from someone in a thread and they never write one, or for pretty much any other reason you might think you're being ignored, chances are that it's because very few members here actually read posts--and it's even rarer to have two or more members having an actual discussion. Most sig campaigners and all bounty hunters I bet just write something quick based on the title of the thread. Even if it looks like they're reading because they quoted someone else's post, they usually just write generic shit.I'm glad there's no way to know who's on who's ignore list.

Lately I've been wondering if we can find out who ignored us.
Is there any way to find out who ignored us?
I was wondering who ignores me but what is the point of knowing? Will they give us reasons or explanations? Is there any way to find out who ignored us?
There's no way to find out who ignored us, maybe if they tell us before they ignore us. We can only see who we ignored us on our profile and the board preferences that we ignore.
Good Luck on finding out, let them pay for it lol
I will like to ask if i put a user on ignore, will he be able to send me PM? i need to have this clarification because I've discovered recently on receiving unsolicited messages on my PM which i will love to stop the sender against future reoccurrence, i think this will help me more if possible than reporting them to moderators which may also get them into more troubles, any PM i received and suspect them to be abnormal will get the sender ignored by me.
To block members from sending you private messages on bitcointalk.org, go to your "Profile" and then to "Personal Message Options" (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;sa=pmprefs). On that page, you will find the "Ignorelist" feature, where you can add the members you wish to block.
Back in the day I believe people's ignore button would glow different colours depending on how many people had ignored you but that was removed.
That could save time in identifying shitposters instead of wasting time reading their posts, but it can also be abused. So maybe it's for the best we don't have that feature anymore.
oh man i loved that glowing ignore button. it glowed brighter yellow or something the more peeps ignored the account iirc.
saw some plenty brights ones back in the day lol.

Having someone put you in their ignore list and having someone distrusting you, which one is more damaging?
None! I believe, when used correctly, both improve someone's forum experience. More people should just ignore each other instead of starting long, damaging feuts.If the person has not managed to devalue these users' posts, then it is even better to use the ignore option to avoid getting into disputes with that user. And not involving the community in these debates.

Is there any way to find out who ignored us?
Yes, it is possible. You just need to PM him to ask him if you have your doubts. Is there any way to find out who ignored us?

On your profile settings there are two different ignore lists. One under "Ignore user options" which simply hides the ignored user’s posts from you (but has no effect on PMs), and another under "Personal Message Options", which does what you want (the latter).Note:
I’ve personally got both of those lists empty, and although I (seldom) use the former every now and then, I also resort to clearing it periodically.

Then you go to war if you knew 😂. I believe there are users you ignored too. Would you want them to know they're ignored by you? I think it's best not to bother one's brain about a minute issue like that. I'm sure there are users on whose ignore list I am but I don't want to let that bother me a bit. They must've their reasons for taking such an action but I'm not going to be bothered by their action. That's a past for me. Anything past shouldn't be a weight on anyone. There's a reason a vehicle's windscreen is bigger than its side mirrors. The windscreen sees the front and that's the future while the side mirrors are for things behind (past).Is there any way to find out who ignored us?
Yes, that's right, I agree with your point of view. Personally, I don't see any need to know who ignores us. Basically, I don't see any need for an ignore list.
I honestly do not know what is the great benefit of the forum from having such a list, as it increases conflicts in the forum and leads to personal hatred between some members at times.
Even spammers should not be put in ignore list or we will not be able to read their posts and report them.

Jeez I can’t even get proper reply from my neighbour when I greet them in the morning despite the fact that we once shared beer together. So you stop greeting them and drink beer with friends / gang.
It's true... sometimes it would be useful to have an "ignore" button in real life, so we don't have to put up with some people.
Maybe one day ... Like an episode of the "Black Mirror" series portrayed the connection between social networks and real life.
Here in the forum we learn from one another. We don't know whether the person we are ignoring has the information we were looking for for a very long time and if we are ignoring the user and the information has been dropped, how will we know it.
