Just a couple questions. What would be wrong with knowing who has put you on their ignore list and who is in stealth mode?
I can understand the possible necessity for a mod to be in stealth mode.

Just a couple questions. What would be wrong with knowing who has put you on their ignore list and who is in stealth mode?
I can understand the possible necessity for a mod to be in stealth mode.
Did somebody say something?
On a serious note (I know, I know - hard to believe) The ignore feature allows individuals that tend to upset you (not you personally) to be put in a position that won't do that anymore. Kind of like a peace keeping tool. As far as invisible mode - some people like to read/post and not be seen - I'm sure they all have their reasons.
So, are you saying it works both ways when someone puts you on their ignore list?Quote:

I guess I should take Rick off this list. The big bully keeps making fun of my lumpy chair:)
No - If you place somebody on your ignore list you won't see any of their posts, but unless they place you on their ignore list they will still be able to read your posts.
Got it now. I was unclear.Quote:

Not unless they tell you.
Can you make it visible to those involved?Quote:

I'm not exactly sure what you are asking. As a moderator I cannot tell if somebody has been placed on somebody elses ignore list.Quote:

It isn't available in the software. As Crash said, not even moderators can see who has who on their ignore list and the software doesn't let us change that. We can't change it at the user level and we can't change it at the moderator level.
If you think about, there's a pretty good reason vBulletin doesn't let you do that. Let's assume I could for a moment. So I log on to Who's Ignore and see that Crash has me on his ignore list. So I think, why that dirty so and so. And I end up flaming him (or vice versa). I can see that knowledge sparking no end to arguments and ill feelings.
As for Invisible Mode, I can site a couple of examples in which it IS good to use it. 1. In the past, we've had a member or two that would wait for specific ladies to log on them start PM'ing them. And PMing and PMing and ad infinitum. So the ladies simply began logging on in Invisible mode to avoid the head aches. Worked well. 2. If you are in a hurry, it's a nice option. If someone has sent you a PM but you truly don't have time to answer it then you can log in as Invisible, check what you need to check and leave. If you logged in as visible and they saw you were logged on and didn't bother to answer their PM they might get a bit upset thinking you were just ignoring them.
Moderators CAN see who is on in Invisible mode.
I got it. Thanks for the insight. Knowledge is ... well, forgetful.Quote:

I myself am not a drama person so what ever life throws me I deal with it and I dont worry about it, but not everyone can do it.
In an emergency situation, always keep your environment situation in mind, with the environment in mind what action or materials can be used.
Cut short for a Bday party, I hope I can make it through.

Glass houses and rocks would be an issue for me. Unless it was your house.
Can I put myself on my "Ignore List? :)
You've been hanging out around Jason haven't you?
