I'm thrilled and amazed that Paizo staff and contributors take the time and expend so much effort listening and responding to their readership through these message boards. It's a testament to their commitment and enthusiasm.
I'm equally appalled by how much time, effort, and emotional energy is misspent on people who contribute nothing but vitriol and condescension.
Paizo, please... If a post isn't constructive, disregard it. If a poster is a whiner, filter him out. Don't waste your time on rancor. There is no value in it.
Ignore lists on these boards would be a great boon to us all.
You are absolutely right.
I like the idea of ignore lists. I'll add that to our list of desired messageboard improvement possibilities.

I personally never use the ignore feature. Even if someone seems to have nothing useful to contribute, I can screen them out on my own, and occassionally it is useful to know what they're saying to the rest of the world, that way I can respond as necessary.
The community here is generally just fine. I wouldn't mind an ignore function, but there are a number of things that are probably more important. If there is anyone that REALLY needs to be ignored, wouldn't it just be better to ban them from the message boards?
