    Quoted from FlippyD:

    Hello, I love this site, but like most of the internet it has it's share of annoying and obnoxious users. These users can dominate conversations and shift the whole mood of a discussion. I do not like engaging in these types of chats and will first scroll past their messages but eventually the annoying user gets blocked.
    Unfortunately on rare occasion some of these opinion spamming and obnoxious users will actually share useful answers to a persons questions. The current state of the ignore feature doesn't allow you to peek at the post or who posted it. Being able to click through an ignored message would make the feature more powerful and useful to more users. Instead of 100% filtration of content it gives the end user the flexibility to filter out obnoxious banter while occasionally digesting some useful info or popcorn drama from the trolls.
    If such a feature could be easily and readily added to the website that would be awesome. If not, life goes on.

    I'm sure I'm one of those you're talking about...minus the helpful part.

    In reality, you should've seen the site a few years ago...it was much worse. Robin and his team have gone a long way towards cleaning the neighborhood up. For an A/B comparison, pop on over to RGP and see what a train wreck that is.
