If you send a message to someone who's blocked you, does it let you know your message won't be received?
-
Send me a message and you'll have your answer. ;)
-
Silly. You posting answers that question....if I were asking about you.
-
I don't actually know. Someone will need to test :)

Ummon:
Or......they just didn't reply ;)

Well, there's the rub.
-
Yeah, see, you assumed that because I didn't reply, I must not have got your message because of the ignore filter. Obviously I don't have you on ignore or we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Not quite true. If they haven't switched their theme over to the SMF basic (I think), the person ignoring someone will still see their posts. I have a few people that I am ignoring but haven't switched themes. I do it out of principle. ;D
Edit for grammar that made me look like an idiot.

Because you wouldn't want grammar to take credit for stuff that you already do so well ?
;)
FWIW, I was serious when I suggested that UmmoTranqHair could PM me for testing as I have him ignored for PMs, so he could see what happens.

And one more now on the list. ;D

Yes, I know this, but refuse to use it. I actually DO have him on my ignore list, but I still want to see the messages. I use the ignore system as a mark against the person, not for actually ignoring them.
So I'm using the same setup you are.

Strange that ignore is brought up as I have one person ignoring me, but I have no idea why or who it is. Actually, after I posted a reply about this basic thing about a year ago, the number of people ignoring me jumped up to like 4 (then a few days later back down to one), but for the life of me have no idea who added me as an ignore.
Would be kinda neat to find out, as I highly doubt I could have pissed off someone so bad on this forum to actually deserve an ignore... Meh, its prolly just Ginsu marking me.
/me waits to see ignore count jump up to 20 because I made this post... (because we all know that the majority of people on this site are mature... :P )
EDIT: Just checked, sometime between the last month or so and this post, the number of people ignoring me is 3...

Nope. ;)

Your avatar alone prevents me from doing that. :cheers:

:applaud: ;D Yahtzee fan too, eh?
EDIT: And a quick look shows that now 4 people are ignoring me... I wunder if it is just trolls who add me to their ignore lists... :dunno
-
Wait....you ARE on my list....ha ha. Must've been a jerk at some point.
I've removed you.
-
I have no idea how this system works cos I've never explored it*. Hence, Ginsu, I assumed nothing, and my question was...an actual question about the system. Besides, even if I were asking in regards to a message sent, who says it would've been a message to you?
*I have no insecurity over what people post or say, and have the ability to not look at something if I'm not interested.

Yes, I'm the one guilty of making an assumption. It just seemed odd that not long after you sent a message that I didn't reply to, you posted this thread. I totally admit being at fault on that count.
-
It is worth mentionning at this point that there are two different mechanisms -- one for ignoring PMs and one for ignoring posts.
For example, I didn't ignore Hemi's posts, but did put him on ignore for PMs because he was getting obnoxious with them.

I've wondered for a while. An unanswered message to you and one to someone else prompted me to ask.

That's what I gathered, but wanted to know more specifically. I could've tried it out, but sometimes like to ask round to see what people know, too.

For example, I didn't ignore Hemi's posts, but did put him on ignore for PMS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premenstrual_syndrome) because he was getting obnoxious with them.
