The ignor button has served me well, I am a fan. It allows me to not waist time with those who have decided to message me their opnions, as Huxley once wrote 'Those who feel themselves despised do well to look despising.'

Fair question. Another might be, 'Is it really worth the effort to understand the considerable permutations and painstaking nuances of the noble encounter of chess, when the instant gratification of popularized reaction time driven video games is so handy?' And yet another related question in context of your thread topic, 'Is it really worth the effort to lead a self examined life, when so many convenient lifespace/cyberspace alternatives and circumstantial distractions are available?'

An 'ignore' button represents nothing more or less than an administrative personal message inbox feature (a site joystick some easily threatened souls opt for their own self justified reasons to employ). In terms of objective correlatives, some folks measure out the ennui of their impoverished lives by the relative length of their ignore lists or width of their intolerances as others may do with coffee spoons. A few with capacity for life, insight, self esteem (a parent, spouse, dark night patriot, stormy weather friend) make it a point to be there in random moments of need to pour out their forgiveness like a wine.

What was that last bit? Wine?

Lives to short for explaining why we do things sometimes though isn't it, and far too short for correcting people who've been miss informed.

Of course. Inevitable that all of us will bump into and cross paths with impertinent, obnoxious, uncivilized, insufferable ignorees. Crucial question is do we as ignorers behave noisily in an unbecoming manner or with a touch of class and style.

Verb 'ignore' answers a basic 'what to do' situational question which, truth be known, pops up often. Nothing more. As with many if not most transitive verbs, the imbedded/unacknowledged question regarding 'how' and 'in what manner' to conduct the intended action toward the object or person goes begging (by reason of contemporary language limitation) and in context left open ended and unanswered. Comment above simply suggests one approach available from a range of options.

True, Dive... though, in terms of daily global use, the visceral button usually dominates the cerebral.

IGNORE is key to reducing stress and keeping "bad people" away from you.

Good life advice.

Pressure is inevitable (it's what life does to us). Stress is optional (we do it to ourselves).
