Closing Out Thread

Blizzard has done a lightweight version of that

Accounts that are used for the primary purpose of advertising may be closed.

If an account is used primarily to spam trade it will get closed :+1:

Alternate feature. A notepad attached to the current ignore so you can make a note to remember why your ignoring the person to begin with. Simply take the general chat and shift it to another screen then hide that screen that will take care of most of it.

Frankly if you forgotten why they are on your list you can probably edit them out. Besides your best ignore feature should be built into your wetware.

Every time someone complains that someone is risking their account by bypassing being ignored I always think, damn what did you do to that person to make them that mad ? 14 yrs playing this game, still have exactly 0 people on ignore.

Honestly I could see that happening. They already made it so lowbies can’t use the premade finder

So everyone selling in the premade finder has to be 50. Doing something similar to trade chat could probably be done but I can’t think of how without also affecting legit players :thinking:

Maybe a certain amount of questing? You can’t base it on dungeons as new players may not have done a dungeon and want to ask a simple “Where can I repair my armor” in /2

Several people already have told you what to do and a GM even told you what to do in your previous thread that got locked down. Closing Out Thread

I gave you some advice too and just put them on ignore and follow what people have told you. Others told you to take some of the ones in trade off ignore and right click report for spam those so you can place his toons on ignore. If this person is causing you this much distress you need to do what is being suggested. Coming to the forums and making new threads just doesn’t help matters any. Providing all information to a gm that you can in 1 to several tickets and placing every single one on ignore and not engaging with them will help get it to stop.

Have you heard the phrase, “Someone got your goat?” meaning they are getting you so riled up and mad that you lost your temper sanity (your goat in the phrase). I’ve had similar happen to me, and not feeding into it makes it stop. Reason being is they no longer find getting your “goat” entertaining. Doing what you’re doing now if the other person is reading it is feeding into whatever they are doing to harrass you because it’s working to make you upset. Place them on ignore, do what others have suggested, and move forward with reporting and tickets.

Everyone in this thread thus far has gave 100% solid advice already so I won’t expand upon that regarding addons and the like.

I had this happen to my lock the other day. Guy was harrassing people in the newcomer chat and when I called him out others said they were going to report him and he flipped out on me and went on a whisper extravaganza. Was going on about how I instigated this and that and was just a big mess. Someone asked for advice on what to play and he essentially trolled them for asking at such a low level on why it mattered. Absolutely blew up my dms and idk if he had alts already made on other accounts or however that works but after the 5th toon, I logged off for a while. Haven’t heard anything out of him since.

Why there is even a maximum limit is something that continues to baffel me.

Hey I’m trying to be nice to you no need to be rude. I can read and I’m stating the facts that you already brought up the subject and it was already answered, several times. You opened up with similar stuff as you did in the other thread and you just opened up another one complaining about the same thing that was already advised on what to fix!

You need to put the tickets in! The CS in the forums cannot help with this matter and making new threads just to go on regarding addons and track/block spammers isn’t going to help your case.

If you place one toon of his on ignore it ignores it for that 1 account so if he has let’s say 8 you need to ignore only 8 toons to have them all ignored. That is the only way a person can bypass the ignore function now is if they use other accounts to whisper someone.

Stick him on ignore anytime he mentions you in trade and anytime he whispers you and it will 100% fix the problem. After a while, he’ll run out of accounts and you got more than enough info to send to blizzard via that ticket thread.

“You are unable to ignore the player whispering you death threats because you put too many trade chat trolls on ignore, so you have to un-ignore them in order to put the other guy on ignore”

do you just not see the issue?

Just say you’re sorry to the person for whatever you did, and move on.

This isn’t good advice.

If someone takes time out of their game activity to throw a temper tantrum, you shouldn’t grace them with any of your time or energy.

Like sharks, they will go into a frenzy if they smell blood in the water.

I see the issue and did he say anything about death threats? I didn’t see anything in this forum thread regarding that in this one or the last one (if it’s there point it out). If there are death threats then 100% that needs to be reported asap! He was talking about in his other thread putting M+ spammers on ignore, which took up room, and he can take the spammers off his ignore and right click report for spam and they are placed on a temp ignore til he logs off AND they get reported in the process instead of just sitting on ignore. They are still on ignore too even if the spammer gets deleted! So if this person had… let’s say 8 (that’s the max per bnet) accounts and he ignored one on a bnet ok that’s fine but if the person doesn’t have all them on the same bnet then what? I believe you’re allowed up to 3 bnets but still! It’s the same problem then even if they changed it! Just quit interacting with them and slap them on ignore.

Put trade in another window or something too if you don’t want to see constant spam. I do this… this way if I want to glance in trade I can.

Then quit posting and put the person on ignore and move on! EVERYONE has given you advice, CS has given you advice… what else do you want?
