I'm still not sure how all the technicalities of Lit work. If I ignore a person, can they still read what I write? Some things have happened in the last 24 hours to make me an absolute nervous wreck. I don't want to post anymore details here, but I am fearful. Can someone please explain to me how 'Ignore' works?

If you have serious concerns about another user
I would PM a mod, he/she can have them banned

oh yes they can see you
but you cant see them

Sorry, but "ignore" is a one-way function, you just don't see posts of someone anymore. They still see yours.

As far as I know, ignoring someone doesn't affect whether or not they read your posts, so yes, they can still read. All it does is make it so that if you're subscribed to a thread, and they post to it, you won't be notified, and the content of their posts is hidden from you unless you explicitly want to read a post (there's a button for this).
 
But can another member read my posts if they are on my iggy list???

Sorry to be so vague. And sorry I still don't understand how all this works.

:eek:

Yes, they can still read your posts if you have them on your ignore list.

Sorry, I replied before seeing this. Okay. Fuck. That's what I was afraid of. Thank you for the info.

yes
all ignore does is stop you from seeing threads they make or what they post

Yes, they can. You can't read theirs, but they can read yours (unless, of course, they iggy you).

Yes, they can.

But you may be overreacting. VBM may seem like a creepy stalker, but I assure you he is harmless.....
 
VG, if someone is threatening you or "crossing the line" as far as PMs, you can PM ChargerGirl and she might be able to help.

All Ignore does is block you from seeing what people on the list post. You can't totally block someone from seeing your posts. Unless, like above, they Ignore you.

If someone is hassling you, I would PM a mod like I said above AND make yourself invisible.

Ignore means that you cannot see their posts but they can see yours.

If they start a thread you will not see it.

Who's bothering you? We have sharks with lasers.
 
VG, I just PMed you. But PM me back. I have an idea that might help you, but I won't say it here.

^^^^^ This. It doesn't block them entirely, it just makes them "invisible" to you. It doesn't stop them from seeing you. Creepy, huh?
