As someone who joined the site roughly half an hour ago, I agree. I'd happily browse the site ignored while reading the content,
the sort of person who leaves a site or thinks worse of it just because s/he's not getting enough attention isn't one I'd want to interact with in the community. this would keep maturity levels higher, because someone who can't cope with the immaturity following summer break or another community leaking into this will have the power to ignore them, and stay with us, aswell as the possibly immature new-commers being likely to leave due to lack of attention. And that's why in my (low valued) opinion this should be a feature.
