    I just noticed that when someone who is on your ignore list makes a post on a subscribed thread, it shows up as a "New Subscribed Threads" in your Settings page.

    Should that be? If you're ignoring them, shouldn't it not show up?

    thanks,

    Ideally, probably it shouldn't show... But I suspect there's a very large overhead needed to do that on the backend, so a change like that would need to come from vBulletin themselves.

    So now it's supposed to show? I was wondering if it was a bug or not. On some platforms we use, such a post I believe doesn't show although I would have to check on that. Seeing this happened here got me thinking about it.

    Thanks

    I'll add it to my list of stuff to look at once vB4 comes out... Don't really want to go making major changes when it's something they may have fixed already.

    I can't find the thread right off but someone asked a few months back if you ignored someone, would you still get their PMs. I believe we all said that you wouldn't. Turns out that you do and they show up in your inbox. They are checked for deletion though and marked as being on your ignore list.

    Gotta admit I would have have them dropped or blocked.

    Anyone see the thread right off? I would like to note it there.
