What have I been missing? Every time I leave a thread and come back, you people are trying to mate with each other! And in a thread about ignoring users no less.

Ignoring people is how I let them know I like them.
(Did I mention I'm 9 years old.
)
I'm available but no-one wants me.

... never mind that nonsense. Writing is what's important. So keep on working hard and you'll be getting plenty of phone numbers ... from editors ;-)
On topic: The request I just got was contributed to enormously by beta readers. Thank you Mel for doing what you do. That member has no idea what they're missing.

I've found I really enjoy critting, and I'm way better at it than I thought I would be. I wish I had more time... and reading stuff on the screen for long periods didn't make my eyeballs dry up like a couple of marbles in my head.

Hey, I just found the "ignore" function. Cool! I've blocked one person -- not because I dislike them or their posts, but because their sig line includes a bunch of huge photographs featuring something I've got a phobia about and just can't handle seeing pictures of. Being able to blank out the person's posts and thus those photos is making my time here at AW a lot more pleasurable!
I think it's possible to just switch signatures off.
Then again you might miss links in other signatures you'd be interested in...

SP is right. You can turn signatures off. I had to do that a couple of years ago for the same reason Unimportant mentioned; multiple giant photos. I got tired of seeing them a half-a-dozen times in one thread.
... yep it is possible to switch sigs off. Go to user cp > edit options > thread display options ... and then under visible display options click off 'show signatures.' You can also click off 'show avatars' and 'show images.' Then click 'save changes' at the bottom of the screen. I clicked off all three myself months back thanks to a tip from Medi. Makes browsing through threads much easier, among other things. All the posts are condensed.
