This problem has been posted before. Can't be difficult to fix. Someone please have mercy.

Thats what you get for hanging round in bars.

What? Why ignore? Alcohol doesn't do the job for you?

there is an very easy metered to use /ignore in real world bars, all you do is type /ignore in a laptop then beat the offender repeatedly round the head with it intill he shuts up...

It's a feature...bars are supposed to be a haven for abusive, loud, boisterous, annoying, stupid people.

You can hear an /ingore person in the bars?

if they're in the bar with you...yes, sarahanne.

I use /ignore a lot to filter out people with a potty mouth. My brother uses my ignore list when his kids play vendetta. I would prefer if /ignore would apply everywhere.

Kids shouldn't go into Bars, heh.

No, seriously, it is a teen rated game, but then again, even typing /hidelog does not get rid of bar chat, I guess they could add a command to totally remove the ability to see/take part in Bar Chat, like on the Options --> Game menu (Bar Chat On/Off). But alas, thats a suggestion, heh.

He's a man of few words.

a) chat filter.

b)....go find some other spacecraa...oooh! something shiny!

Between Miharu, Joyce and the new kid, why do you need anyone else to work in the bar? And who is this "/ignore" person that won't work there, anyway? Is the new guy not working out?

Seriously though, if I choose to ignore someone, I'd want it to be in effect on all channels (including the bar).

As I stated in that "other" thread...

Muted players should NEVER be able to communicate with anyone except a guide or dev.

/ignored players, to follow the concept of roleplay, I'm not against having them be heard in bars--you can filter out a comm transponder on the radio, but you cannot as easily filter out a single person when they're three feet away from you.

Personally, I don't see the /ignore command as being role-play oriented: if it's only my character (not me the player) that wants to ignore someone, it is not necessary to actually block the messages in the game-engine, the way /ignore does, I can just role-play my character as ignoring that person. I see /ignore as being essentially the same as /vote mute, only on an individual level: if I use /ignore it's probably because I find someone's messages to be offensive or otherwise detracting from my enjoyment of the game. As that's how I see it, I think messages from muted and /ignored characters should both be completely blocked, including the bar chat.

Meh, I guess that's a good way to look at it as well.

*shrugs*

We'll see what the devs do, when they have time.
