**Problem:**
If you ignore a user, you still see topics created by that user in your digest emails
**Expected:**
If you ignore a user, you don’t see topics created by that user in your digest emails
**Cause:**
`Topic.for_digest` does not contain any logic that excludes topics created by users you’re ignoring
**Repro:**
- ignore a user via /my/preferences/users
- have this user create a topic
- find the topic in your periodic digest
- be confronted with this users post
- get angry/upset
