That's exactly why we have this feature. All members are responsible not only for what they post on the forums and their behaviors but also for their own self care. I think self care should come first and foremost for everyone.

Since PC is a supportive site for members, what better way to support ones self than to use self care and keep ones self safe?

Purple Fins, Wolfie and Sabby, what you all said is exactly why I asked the question. I was slipping into a bad state of mind. A certain member's posts were beginning to trigger some old "stuff" for me. I didn't trust myself to stay away from the person's posts so I wanted to put them on ignore for awhile in order to protect myself... from myself.
Thanks for this!

The only problem I have with the ignore function is that it still tells you that that person has posted, only that you are ignoring them. This in turn, triggers my curiosity and I end up reading the post anyway. It would be nice if the ignore function means you don't see anything at all that that person has posted.

I see you Skully but the skulls are a little disconcerting. Maybe you are a maxillofacial surgical specialist, though. So it's all good.

Go to your profile, go to Settings and Options and click on Edit Ignore List. Here you will see who you have put on ignore, add to ignore list or remove from your ignore list.

Hope this was helpful.
Thanks for this!

I suspect I may end up on an ignore list or 2. I feel very insecure about writing posts. I try to clean them up, try to think carefully how they may be read. But it's hard for me to comprehend how sensitive someone else may be. Some people are clearly very vulnerable emotionally when they come here. And then I am wondering if my posts may come across as arrogant or uppity for example. I ask myself, who am I to be giving anyone advice? Just a lonely person with opinions, not a good set of credentials for here. Perhaps I should just express my compassion and good wishes and stop there. Leave my ruminations for my journal.

I would prefer people would tell me if they believe that my post is inappropriate in some way. I would appreciate learning. I am learning here a lot, this would be something too.

I hope I'm not on anyone's ignore list also, but I do know the state I'm in leads me to write some rather triggering posts so I hope that my posts don't end up hurting anyone's path to healing.
On a side note - some responses really hurt - I try not to take it too personally, I am rather sensitive and I try to remind myself that it is in some people's nature to be "blunt" and maybe their responses are well intentioned...

I am on a few folk's ignore list. I didn't know until they pm'd me with a "nasty" note and said I was added to their ignore list. Odd as it sounds, it really didn't bother me. Figured it is their choice. I don't use the ignore button.. I prefer to see what is going on around me.. I think just knowing the option is available is enough for me...It offers me a choice.. SO at this time, my "choice" is not to use the ignore option

Do people always pm you when they put you on their ignore list or can you be on someone's ignore list and not know?

Can't Stop Crying....People don't always pm the person they put on their ignore list.. Sometimes they do... Sometimes they don't.... Just in my case, they wanted me to know... shrugs shoulders.......

I doubt you would ever be on anyone's ignore list... You are way too nice...

In the interest of fairness, I try to ignore those who ignore me.
