I went thru my buddy list and realized that there were actually some people on my BL that I had on ignore.  When the BL came out we all sorta went crazy and everyone was adding everyone.  LOL.  So, I guess if you're ignoring someone, they stay on your BL?  I've deleted those folks, but I think it's funny that you (general) would want to ignore someone, but they have access to you thru your buddy list.  But my second question is, if you have someone on ignore, is that just a feature for the forums, or does it apply to your whole profile?  Meaning can someone on ignore still PM you, see your shelf, etc, etc?

I believe the ignore feature is just on the forums, independent of everything else. So, it doesn't affect your buddy list, PMs, bookshelf, or anything else. But, without knowing for sure who's ignoring who, I obviously can't be certain. At least, not without being rude enough to go around asking everyone on my ignore list if they can do those things.
