I think that he didn't ignore you, but that he noted the request. The same as he would have done if it had been made by myself or Bumble. In fact, I made a request myself further down the page that didn't receive a reply.
Fencer has stated many times that he reads and notes ALL requests. Imagine if he had to reply to every single one? And sometimes he can't say yes or no straight away because they need to be thought about, and considered how difficult it may or may not be to implement.
