I used to think it was some kind of badge of honor that I didn't need to ignore anyone. I only had a single poster on ignore for years. And it wasn't even based on interactions I had with them, it was just an annoying posting style.
Then this year I realized how frequently I was making the same comments to people about the stupidity of the things they post and how they conduct themselves. I decided to start ignoring them instead. I can't make people stop being idiotic children, but I can filter the amount of it I'm exposed to.
