If you click on someone profile you will see something that says 'add to buddy list'. When you add them you will be able to know when they are online, their will be a plus sign by their name. You see this by going to the home page and looking at the bottom where it shows who is online.

If you add them to your 'ignore list' it will block everything posted by them.

Just wanted to add . . . Up top where it says User Control Panel, Board Rules/FAQs, etc, there is also a heading called Quick Links. If you click on that there will be an option to "open buddy list." If you have added someone to your buddy list, you can click on that quick link to also see if they are online. There is also an option to send them a pm. If you have several people on your buddy list, you can make a group pm to up to 5 buddies.

I have made "friends" since registering and sometimes I'm just curious if they are online at the same time as me. If so, I like to shoot them off a pm just to say hi. :)
