So I was browsing pinside on a friends computer and hadn't logged in, I noticed that I was getting ignored user in some threads. I checked a thread I had noticed it in on my computer without being logged in and had the same thing showing at the same posts. I logged in and found that the posts that were showing ignored user were made by lowepg.
If you're not logged in .. how do you expect the web site to know who to ignore?
The ignore feature requires a login.
It's not a bug.
If you're not logged in, your personal site preferences won't be applied, and you will simply see the site as an anonymous visitor.
Quoted from tmontana:I think he is saying when he is not logged in there is a user who is showing up as ignored.
Exactly. When I'm not logged in I should be able to see every post.
Is that individual using the < pinsideonly > tags?
« Some content hidden, only visible to registered Pinsiders »Interesting bug. I can confirm that there were a couple of ignore entries on the "guest" user account. Very strange. I will look into how this happened, but it should be fixed now as I have deleted those entries from the 'ignore' database.
I did laugh that lowepg was being globally ignored to peoepl not logged in 
Not all bugs need to be fixed Robin...

Surprised some other users aren't on that list. Would be an easy way to make Pinside more friendly.
