    I find that I rarely have to put people on my ignore list, but there are those from time to time. I also go through and clear it out from time to time.

    I'm on low threshold. I feel bad sometimes when I put not too bad people on ignore, but when players are jokingly giving out bad advices to new players or spamming zone chat for attention, I add them on the list to save myself from being annoyed. I don't remove them from the list either even if they happen to be in the same guild.

    I rarely do, but that is because run with guild mostly. I will quickly ignore someone though if they are bullying or just being an excessive jerk(want use other words, but filters lol). I don't put up with it and will say so and tell the person why. Then put on ignore and move on with my life.

    There's a lot of people that deserve the block on Xbox. Sometimes I feel like I'm dealing with a teenager jacked up on cheap energy drinks that draws self worth from the game.

    A lot of the vocabulary over voice chat is also cringe worthy. Not in a nerdy way either because I can stand that. It's hard to describe but if you're on xbox one you probably know what I'm talking about.. unless you're one em. Lol.

    I don't have anybody on my ignore list. I don't read zone chat though, except in Cyrodiil. I report people who spew racist/homophobic/sexist garbage there, but I don't ignore them incase they actually impart useful tactical information between their slurs. I'd ignore after reporting if they were spamming though.

    The report button has been great for getting rid of racists, sexists, and scammers so that I don't need to gum up my ignore list. I only recently ignored someone, and only after weeks of endurance, because they just will NOT shut up in PvP. They don't really say anything reportable (as far as memory serves/I can keep up with their constant rambling), but it's just the sheer volume of nonsense and self-aggrandizement. I couldn't take it. :`-(

    That's what I used to for a long time actually. Mostly because I felt too guilty. Now that guilt, wherever it sprang from, has been drying up mostly. Still there but in trickles only. So much better without stuff I don't want to see or hear.

    Does ignoring them make sure you load into a separate instance next time? Or prevent them from being assigned to your group?

    If I ignore someone I want to be sure I don't accidentally heal them later down the line. :D

    Also if they are really that horrible, I screenshot it, report them, then ignore them. I haven't had to ignore someone in a while. When I first started this game last year it seemed like no matter when I signed in Stonefalls was full of gross edgelords. Really colored my view of the Pact as a taint.

    Oh no. There's a cap? In that case I need to be more selective. I noticed that you can add notes to those on ignore list. I should rank them with numbers from now on, in case I need to make room.

    I have a high threshold for /ignore and an extremely high threshold for /report.

    Mind you, that doesn't mean zone chat isn't full of truly detestable people saying truly detestable things. I just prefer to let them dig their own graves. The community often seems to find awfulness entertaining, though, so it's often not that successful a tactic.

    I used to put guild spammers on my ignore list until I accidentally put my own GM on there (spamming another guild) and she threw me out. I just hate people who do that. It annoys me. So now I just ignore them and put my ex-friends on ignore that I've had disagreements with.

    I think your ex-GM did you a favor there.

    I would have to disagree with you there.

    People who purposely flood chat with excessive spam can make it impossible to communicate with others, or to look for groups or trade offers you might be interested in.

    So I would put excessive spamming at the very top of the threshold when it comes to offenses worthy of an ignore.

    @Megabear "Low threshold - All of the above plus those that simply annoy you (immature, unresponsive, generally incompatible player, etc)"

    I would only mute someone for spamming excessively. To the point where it becomes hard to read or parse the chat at all. I simply report people who do things that I think would be breaking the TOS (very rare), and leave the chat free-range besides the spam. I think my block list has like one person on it, and they've probably been on there long enough to be removed.

    Low but also very high.

    I won't ignore somebody for profanity, cursing, being rude, being dumb - any of that.

    I have one single condition for ignores and that's people who spam the chat with overprices, low quality items and continue to bring the chat HUD up constantly - especially when you can see the same message every time, indicating they aren't even making sales. It just gets annoying so fast. I like the chat because it can sometimes be useful... but it would be nice if they did like Warframe and made a separate tab for traders so they could spam there to their hearts content.
