I so respect what you're saying.

I would like to share my thoughts on that from my experience...

When I joined, I accepted the guidelines here...knowing that I should post within them, but also knowing that everyone else here was only obligated to post within them no matter the upsetting topic (for me), opinion, etc.

In knowing that, I knew there might be that time that I have to put a member on ignore if their posting was triggering, upsetting, or otherwise, but within the guidelines for the community.

I think the ignore feature is a great feature. I also realize that it could be abused but I have RARELY seen that happen here. Some may have to ignore more than others for a short time because of the place that their in for the moment, as well as triggers, depression, etc.

When a person uses ignore, it's usually due to personal reaction and self-comfort, I think...not meant to upset.
