Would be SO nice to be able to just click on the users name and 'ignore' them without having to copy it, go to the control panel, open the 'ignore' list and paste it in.

I can not fathom how people can actually use that feature, and you are using it SO much that you want it made more user friendly? Wow.

There's no need to copy/paste anything.

Click on the user's name. A menu will pop up.
Select View Public Profile.
Click on User Lists below their name.
Select Add to Ignore List.
Click the Yes button.

If you want to ignore so many, perhaps your judgement is better than you think.

If they regularly bother, harass you or skirt the line of Bike Forums' rules then the chances are they could be on the way to a temporary or permanent ban through points and complaints. Are you able to have a beneficial talk with the member about what bothers you? If not perhaps you should discuss your problems with a moderator or the administrator. They may be aware of the members behavior but without feedback unable to decide to take action at that moment. If something is definitely wrong in your eyes report it or ask. Bike Forums relies on it's members' feedback to keep it the most helpful site for cyclists they know how to produce.

I know that if I am not kosher somehow I gladly welcome a note about it. I'd bet most would, whether or not they were successful in fixing it. Some might never 'get it' and others were never here to 'get it' in the first place and unfortunately you see the results in Banned Users occasionally.

Hey, add me to your ignore list, OK?
