I need not to take any s**t, I play to relax.

Since launch I put maybe 10 people on the list. Only people that are beyond inappropriate and make fun about sexual violence.
I usually empty the list a couple of month later again because I rarely see/read the same people twice.

When I craft gear for someone, for free, and they don't even say thanks. Yeah, never again, kid.

/ignore.

I tend to block loud, obnoxious microphones in zone chat. I block the "high threshold" category of people and I also write them on my "blacklist" where I write names and the reason why I blocked. Otherwise, "medium threshold" or lower goes on the written blacklist so that I know in the future to not play with them. Totally stupid that the block list has a cap.

I used to report hate speech from zone chat but the responses to my tickets always suggested I ignore them so I just do that now. I also ignore the people who get baited into responding to them. I'm not going to forced to be an audience for any of that garbage while I'm trying to see who's looking for help with a world boss. I'm not here to change people's hearts, I'm here to play a game.

I have no one on my ignore list, but the criteria to get put on it is very, very specific.

Either you're being an annoying lil jerk and spamming me in whispers with harassing messages or a gold seller.

That's it.

The things on high threshold are violations of the game's rules, and they get the report button.

Ignore mainly gets saved for people who are just unreasonably rude.

But I usually play with zone chat closed, and when zone chat is open, I usually have the fortune to find myself in a zone with decent people.

People who with poor mic control annoy me. Especially when they forgot they leave their mics on and they start talking about health issues.

If someone is sending me unpleasant rage messages in Cyrodiil or acting like a child with their parents' credit card info, I'll put them on my ignore list but remove them later on cause I know sometimes people are just in a funk sometimes. It wasn't until a few weeks ago that someone and their symbiotic slime found permanent residence on the list for death wishes against my family and attempting to make my integrity seem questionable to others.

I don't agree with the order in which you put the different kinds of players to ignore.
My ignore list is half way full, mainly for the following reasons:
- spamming in zone (especially Cyro)
- kicking me from group finder groups (if you kick my alt, I'll make sure to never carry you on my main)
- if I need one enemy somewhere to test stuff and they kill it over and over again even though I asked them not to do so

However, I think it's a lot more fun to troll scammers than putting them on ignore. When someone offered you the "fake" tempering alloys, the best thing to do, was tell it's not worth trading such small numbers of items. When they came back from buying more of those trait stones to offer you, telling them you are currently towerfarming on a pop locked campaign, but they are free to join you to trade there was a decent way to keep them busy.

And for sexist / racist behaviour, it's part of the game's lore (and even part of the backstory of my main), so depending on my mood I'll just rp with them. It can lead to funny results, if someone tries to offend you as player, but you respond in rp style, as if they were offending your character.

I only ignore people who are serious jerkwads, say racist/sexist/overly bad things in chat, cause serious grief to friends, and people who send me hate tells.
