FfvB has just updated to v2.2.0 which includes 2 new features.
1. Forum Subscriptions allow you subscribe to each (sub)forum that you like with a single click, and then you can view your subscriptions all in a single tab! The screen dynamically resizes your subscriptions to make them all fit, and they auto reload at intervals of your choosing.
So, let's say you frequent 3 boards... instead of having 3 tabs open and having to constantly reload them all to see which threads have new replies.. you can no subscribe to them, view them in a single tab and have it reload entirely on it's own!

2. Menu injection is off by default, but you can enable it in the preferences and FfvB will auto add in discreet menus directly into every thread and post to make ignoring and highlighting much easier and faster. Simply mouse over the menu to have it expand with options and click.
I know these aren't for everyone, not everyone visits more than one forum and not everyone wants anything added to their pages. These are completely optional and can even be hidden away completely in the Preferences.
Hopefully these, and many of the other features will help you to see that FfvB is much more than just a way to ignore someone. Throw these 2 in with the highlighting, navigation bar at the bottom, sidebar option, magic paste (auto adds [img][/img] tags) and more... and it's quite a full featured Firefox + vBulletin extension.
