     Services may be ignoring the users because of a command that took a
long time to execute; in a case such as this either have the user execute
the command again (ignore lasts only the length of time the previous
command took, typically a few seconds at most) or use the OperServ
LISTIGNORE command (undocumented) as a Services admin to see if the user is
on the ignore list.

     Ignore will (hopefully) work more cleanly in version 5.0.
