Why is having a mod on the ignore list against rules?

You might be unaware that mods cannot view other user's ignore lists. Given how heavily we use PMs to do our jobs, not being able to contact a member by PM is very problematic.

With no disrespect intended, if you haven't been on the operational side of the forum, you're really not in a position to judge what would or would not create more problems.

We can't put any of the general membership on ignore either - for the same reason: it interferes with moderation and administration of the forum. That in my opinion trumps a member's inability to scroll past what they do not wish to read or respond to.
