I didn't know there was an Ignore function... I do use similar functions on Facebook, mainly because I can't stand those stupid games I'm asked to participate in, but I don't think I'd use it here. It may be frustrating to see people at the starting line and realize what a long road they have ahead of them, esp if they're still in denial--but I read those posts to remind me of how much it work it takes to further my own recovery.
I typically read the pop-up off the headline and if I think I'm either interested or I could help, I'll read it. If not I just ignore the post on my own.
But definitely whatever works for you--I do think it can be a useful tool. I also appreciate your no-nonsense talk, Cyranoak. Your type of communication always is so refreshing--which is why I LOVE Dave Ramsey for instance. Nothing like hearing like it is. (Hmm... maybe that compliment went smacking up against Cyranoak's block :-)
