+/IGNORE without any arguments displays list of ignores. If you want to remove
+some levels of the ignore, use /IGNORE <mask> -<level> -<level2> etc
 
 The best match always wins, so you can have:
     /IGNORE * CTCPS
     /IGNORE -except *!*@host.org CTCPS
 
+Examples:
+
+    /IGNORE #channel ALL -PUBLIC -ACTIONS   - ignore all but public/actions
+    /IGNORE #channel -JOINS                 - don't ignore joins anymore
+    /IGNORE -replies *!user@*.host.org ALL  - ignore user and all replies
+
+Some suggestions for ignoring annoying public aways:
+    /IGNORE -regexp -pattern "is (away|gone|back)" * ACTIONS
+    /IGNORE *zzz* NICKS
+    /IGNORE *afk* NICKS
+    /IGNORE *away* NICKS
