Only if they post on more than one character, AND only if the ignore shows “hidden message” and doesn’t just vanish that person from view (that has happened on some threads here for some reason)
This is such a time and resource intensive process to be written off. If a person is willing to put in the extremes of effort, they would be much better served by scouring the armory name by name as it would be infinitely more effective.
Most likely will not find anything as most people don’t use alts, or if they do an extremely limited number.
I don’t even understand this fear mongering they have. If I put someone on ignore, why the heck do I care who their alts are? I don’t want to see them. I’m not going to drop every single other person off of ignore and then search every single thread just to see what posts are hidden to figure out someone’s alts. That’s the definition of stupidity.
I was bought up to act my age, not my shoe size. Though I think this is more of an Aussie slang, since shoe sizes are different in Europe I know for a fact.
I dunno what anyone can do with anyone’s alts? If they place the person on ignore in the game, then not even there alts can message. Though ofcourse, going through it by character, but still.
no, see, someone who wants to harass will put the person they want to harass on ignore, then magically and instantly search all of the forums because OBVIOUSLY everyone posts on all their alts all the time, so they’ll all magically show up as blocked users and they harasser can learn them that way somehow in a timeframe not measured in lifetimes.
You don’t have to be an adult to post here. There are kids all over the game. It’s clear most are adults, in my opinion. But we really may just be dealing with bored teens and their bored friends.
It wasn’t in my nature, but I had plenty of friends as a teen that would have gotten a huge giggle out of causing this much drama between what seems to mostly be a group of adults. I would have had so much more fun if I were mean as a kid, sheesh.
They gotta make that $15 a month sub worth it you know. It’s not like they still play the game. They just sub for the forums. If people start ignoring them then they just wasted $15
When they implement an account-wide ignore feature, I have two more wishes that I don’t know if they’ve been brought up in this thread, but here goes.
When you have someone on ignore, it would be great if any quotes of the person you have on ignore would vanish too.
Instead of seeing “View 1 hidden reply” from the person you have on ignore, it should simply not show anything. That way, there’s no “tracking alts” as implied by a certain someone I have on ignore As though that would actually happen, but this would prevent that and eliminate their entire “argument”.
Sometimes. I have seen threads where ignored posters are just absent without the “user hidden” line. I assume there’s a setting behind the scenes for that
