Absolutely Heartbroken. T_T

I just read a magnificent story by one of my favorite authors. I was accessing this site via my smartphone at the time, so it was a bit fiddly. I went to leave a comment... ...and I somehow managed to touch "ignore user" instead of "add new comment". D=
Just one single misplaced click/touch was all it took, and one of my favorite authors was instantly put on my ignore list. I was absolutely devastated. = (
Of course I immediately went to view my ignore list and remove the entry, but that did little to change how I felt. Hammering a nail into a block of wood and pulling the nail out again always leaves behind a hole, no matter how brief the period for which the nail was in there.

Dear admin team,
Maybe my experience is somewhat narrow, but I simply cannot imagine any situation in which a user of this site could be such an asshole that someone would want to put them on their ignore list with just a single click.
In my opinion, the process of adding a user to one's ignore list should have an extra level of confirmation. It shouldn't happen with just a single click. Being asked to specifically confirm the action could save other users besides myself a lot of unnecessary anguish... ;-;

Yours painfully and honorably,
Extravagance
