The problem lies with the whole revert/communicate, or warn/communicate problem. We have no way for administrators/sysops to mark comments in discussions as being "in my role as administrator," and people who are "ignoring" said discussion bits may very well cause greater problems.
I'd like to be able to ignore sysops as well. Obviously a newcomer wouldn't ignore a sysop /before/ seeing his first message, so the first message would get through and he'd have a hint about trouble.
When blocking a person, a sysop may be automatically removed from ignore list of the blockee (and his past messages become unhidden of course, if that's the case).
