I am the same as you Littlemo, but I would guess it would be 'Buddies' helpful people with similar or same Interests. And 'ignore' would possibly be the opposite.:'(

No doubt we will find out for certain soon.

From the FAQ section.......

The buddy list is used to keep track of the friends you have made on this forum. By going to your "Open Buddy List" in "Quick Links" menu of the navbar, you'll be able to see which of your friends are currently online and send them a private message. Adding people to your buddy list also allows you to send private messages to multiple forum members at the same time. You may add any member of the forums to your buddy list by viewing their profile or by going to "Buddy / Ignore Lists" in your "User CP".

Ignore lists are used for those people whose messages you wish not to read. By adding someone to your ignore list, those messages posted by these individuals will be hidden when you read a thread.

hope this explains it.

Thanks Jon,
I wasn't too far off the mark.
I must admit that I did not really notice the Buddy/ignore list.

Hi Littlemo

Yes, if you want someone to be your buddy then just send them a request.
