Add members to your buddy list to help you keep track of forum members and friends. At myHome, you can see which of your buddies are currently online. Adding people to your buddy list also allows you to easily send them a private message. To add members to your buddy list, click the BUDDY link in a member’s posts or check the "BUDDY" box and then "Submit Modifications" at the bottom of a member’s profile. Adding a member to the ignore list prevents you from seeing any of that member's posts or topics. You will also be unable to send or receive private messages from an ignored member. But you still can send and receive emails from an ignored member. The IGNORE link is always located next to the BUDDY link. Go to myHome to view or edit your buddy and ignore lists.
