Just to let you know that I never read your steaming piles disguised as “comments”.

Carry on!

Just to let you know that I never read your steaming piles disguised as “comments”.

And why exactly do you feel any particular need to tell me this?

Many moons ago I started what's still the largest political chat channel on IRC. Most IRC clients had an ignore feature, which when engaged for a certain person, would filter out all comments from that person.

Routinely two people would get into some argument which ended in one person telling the other in public, "I'm putting you on ignore!"

I always thought that was the most childish behavior. Why not simply ignore them and just move on? What's the purpose of making some public announcement of it? Never could quite figure that out, but it always made me feel like I was babysitting a bunch of five year olds.
