That's the way to do it, be a better person. I'm sure you won't have any problems, but just in case......keep all email/private messages if you do get harassed.

It's in the UserCP link seetings and options>edit ignore list. Happy ignoring people! __________________ I do not respond to private messages asking for help. Please keep it on the forums only.
