The ignore list is a feature that allows users to block certain members on online forums and social media platforms. While it can be a useful tool for managing online interactions, it has also been the subject of debate. As the anarchy continues and no official person has the stick, as @Moonbox says: "free for all", have you found yourself using the list more? Who is on your list and why? Are you considering taking them off ignore if they find a reasonable point? Ignore List Pros: Reducing exposure to trolls: By using the ignore list, users can limit their exposure to low IQ material from specific individuals. This can help create a more positive online environment for ideas to flourish. Personal control: The ignore list gives users control over who they want to interact with. Cons: Limiting other views: The ignore list can lead to an echo chamber, where users only interact with those who share similar views. This can limit exposure to other perspectives and stifle productive dialogue. Potential for misuse: The ignore list can be used to silence opposing viewpoints, rather than engaging with them. This can lead to a lack of constructive discussion and reinforce existing biases.

Now that hockey is back I feel like pontificating on how we could make the game better. In your opinion, what changes or tweaks would improve the game? I have several ideas but I'll start with two: 1) Division winners should not be guaranteed a top 3 playoff seeding, just a playoff spot. 2) If we're sticking with this conference layout for now then I think the top 3 teams in each conference should be able to choose their first round playoff opponent. First place chooses their preferred opponent in the bottom 4, followed by second and third place. I think it will make the regular season a little more meaningful.
