It's different because putting people on ignore leaves their threads in view, it just blocks their posts when in a thread. This would allow you to not have to look at these threads which are apparently upsetting people; although I don't know who.
How is it adversarial? No one would know who has blocked who, any more than they know about it with ignore lists.
Well, I've had my say and suggested alternative action, so I'll drop it now. The point is, there appears to be no reason to have this rule at all, and it could potentially cause a lot of problems and arguments. I'm suggesting a less adversarial way of dealing with it.
I'm perfectly calm. I'm trying to save you guys flak in the long run.
