Ignoring others

I'm curious as to why there is a limit on how many people we can ignore.

Isn't that a customer side thing?

I like to 'ignore' gold spammers, spammers and the overly stupid.

Why is there a limit in place?

And can anyone suggest a good addon to help?

    I didn't even know there was a limit. I'd like an answer to this too.

    It makes me sad there is a limit. I'm sure some idiot will get on and say "But it's a social game, you can and nay must pay attention to everyone all the time, even if you suspect they have brain damage because it's a social game!"

    And that is the kind of person I would ignore, just like a gold spammer.

    Find gold spammers who sell golds relatively cheaper than others and remove them from your ignore list

    Because every individual is a beautiful and unique snow flake that deserves recognition, even if they are spamming "Cheapest gold! You buy here!"

    My block list was full after the first week... :(

    There may be an algorithm, that once you have ignored 50% of the player base it doesn't allow you to ignore anymore.

    If Zen keeps doing what they are doing this actual number will be 20 by end of week.

    The actual ignore cap is 100. This isn't remotely half of the population. Those of us who played on NA from 5-day early release found this cap the first week due to the trove of gold sellers. Since that time it's improved vastly and we've been able to un-ignore all 100 then re-ignore any remaining gold sellers as they continue to pop up. Yes, it's kind so silly for ZoS to have such a low ignore limit, or any at all really.

    You shouldn't waste an ignore on a gold-seller. They use accounts for a few minutes at a time.

    If you actually only use your ignore list for players you want to ignore, you'll never hit the cap.

    Yeah, I pretty much ignore anyone who tries to sell their items 3 times in a row, anyone who seems to like the sound of their own voice, and anyone who acts like a 10 year old who just "discovered" its cool to scream in zone chat.

    Yes, my list is quite full.

    My ignore list is very short, but then I rarely enable /yell and most other global chat channels as there's often little worth reading especially towns where the posters gather.
