OMG finally! This is so overdue.
Best QoL change they've ever made.
if they wanted to do something useful it should hide all of your own chat from the person you /ignored as well a bigger punishment for most creep's would be restricting them from seeing what the person they are harassing is sayingit would also remove their ability to join conversations just to insult/harass the person in public chat channels even if the person has been put on ignore they can still cause problems and if they are on ignore there is no way for you to report them
Finally!I wonder how this works for people you already have blocked? Will it auto block their whole account once patch 9.1.5 hits or do i have to copy their names, unblock them and then reblock them just to get it to apply account wide? Not a huge deal once its in i guess but would be nice to know :)
Good bye booster chat! Can finally have a clean Trade / General Chat, the way it's meant to be.
I was appalled when I learned that these ignore lists are character-specific as I had one player whispering me on alts with zero provocation. Glad to see it's finally getting fixed.
It's amazing that there are people who are publicly against a change like this. Why not just wear a "I want to freely harass women" shirt.
Question, is it account wide on your account too ? IE. I'm pretty sure before I downloaded global ignore list that people I ignored on one character were not automatically ignored on my other characters (which is the main reason I downloaded that addon for). Did they change it ?
dunno if they thought any about this but if someones a turd only one specific character for lols an you ignore them that also ignores the other characters that person may have that they do endgame on and or other stuff that if youre friends with them get done together like if you dungeon with their 60 alts and you ignore list their lowbie toon they screw around on youre no longer able to group with them now is that what this change means?
About time! Now increase the limit and make it much it bigger, like 100 more ignore slots or even higher than that, for Example. So i don't have to use Global Ignore Addon anymore.
Long time coming! Elune be praised!
Thank god! I had a "stalker" in SW that would park his alts by the AH/bank and wait for me come through, bombarding me with whispers as soon as he saw me. (My main is pretty recognizable) He was constantly begging to be my "sugar daddy" if I would RP with him for gold. Lmao.Would whisper me or try to follow me out of SW until I blocked him again. He even found me in Hillsbrad, once. Blocked him so many times now, but he kept making new alts. I reported it every time it happened, now it's been about a year since I've seen him. I always still wonder though, passing through SW on my main.Nice I never have to hear from him again, for sure, lol!
Seems funny, I complained about this to a the CM twitter account, and was told they already do this (was sure it was crap), that by ignoring someone in wow, their entire account is ignored... Wish I had the patience to go back and find that tweet.
So instead they can use a second Warcraft account to whisper you.
Horrible change, how about the trolls who ignore you to have the last word? That's not fair, is it? So with loads of chars on different realms I could always tell them stuff, now not any more, so long live trolls\griefers?
typically what a troll would say
Doesn't work on guild members it seems. Someone I've ignored on several of their toons keeps popping up on others. I find him extremely annoying and thus, I've noticed his other toons when he logs them on and says something. Ignoring him each time but it seems that this supposed account-wide ignore does not work in guild.
