65. IMHO a cohost shouldn't be someone who has alienated multiple members.

Very few people seem to use ignore now that it's an inflexible option. One person having me on ignore is a personality conflict. If five or ten people in a group this size have me on ignore that suggests the problem is me.

There is no practical way to find out who has someone on ignore, so it's moot.
