The current version of the board software still marks topics as having new posts even in the case where all new posts are by users on my ignore list. It's a minor issue, but I'm wondering if it's maybe fixed in a newer version, or if it would be possible to change this in a future version.

I might still want to see posts from users on your ignore list.

I'm pretty sure I've even seen you reply to one of the users on my ignore list! ;)

It's ok...based on this morning, I read facial expressions as well as I read irony.

Got the answer: "Ignoring has never worked for topics."

This is apparently a long-standing request; the thread I posted in was started 2.5 years ago.

Cool, thanks for checking. I'm not sure why it would be a difficult feature to implement, but I don't have any familiarity with IPBoard.
