if you have too many IDs on your yahoo ignore list, names added after the list is full will only be ignored until you log out, and back in, they are no longer on ignore, because yahoo didnt have any more space to save that person to your ignore list. so delete someone who doesnt bug you or that you ignored sometime in the past, or clear your ignore list completely, and start re’ignoring.
