title: MongoDB C# Driver: Ignore Property on Insert
body: <p>I am using the Official MongoDB C# Drive v0.9.1.26831, but I was wondering given a POCO class, is there anyway to ignore certain properties from getting inserted.</p>
  
  <p>For example, I have the following class:</p>
  
  <pre><code>public class GroceryList
  {
      public string Name { get; set; }
      public FacebookList Owner { get; set; }
      public bool IsOwner { get; set; }
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is there a way, for the <strong>IsOwner</strong> to not get inserted when I insert a GroceryList object?
  Basically, I fetch the object from the database then set the IsOwner property in the app layer and then return it back to the controller, which than maps the object to a view model.</p>
  
  <p>Hope my question makes sense. thanks!</p>
