help with ignore
 

the ignore feature in the new bb doesn't hide quotes by the "ignored user" ...

the extension to firefox (vbulletin management) does...

how can i turn off the ignore function on the bb software so that i can use the firefox extension instead, or do i even need to?

There's no real reason to turn it off in your settings if you're using FfVb, as far as I know. If you really want to, all you have to do to "turn it off" is to remove everyone from your ignore list in your UserCP.
