**Allow the ignore list more than 10 Blocks**

Since the hammer started dropping on the bots - I get 5 or more pms a day with the same message spam that they were texting all over the game. Could you please allow for us to have more than just the 10 slots we have now. And please don't say report them - as you cannot report them because they are rarely in the same dis when they nail you.

Pretty please

You can't see me

If server space is the problem, at least a 'temporary' list that is not saved would help, like the 'last trades' and 'last party memberes' there could be a 'temporal ignore' list.

I get alot of people yelling crap at me, flaming me because they die by me in arenas, and just plain spammers and bots. 10 isn't enough.

Would it not be more usefull to have an allow list rather than a block list.

ie
I only get whispers from people on my friends list party members and those on my allow list.
Said allow list could be 10 same as the present block list.
All crap is then auto blocked unless allowed.

If this would screw up trading then maybe a dual security switch is needed.
High security you have a 10 slot allow list
Low security you have a 10 slot block list

Yes, increase ignore list please.

P.S. We all know Anet and NCSoft love bots, its their main source of income, so reporting a bot is just a failure idea in general

I was never whispered by bots until i went to a Euro distrcit to meet someone for a trade.

I couldn't believe it, I had like 5 whispers to buy gold in a matter of 2-3 miutes.

Between the guild spammers and the gold bots, 10 isn't anywhere near enough anymore.

/signed, and /signed in blood for an "allow only" type list someone else mentioned.

Everyday when i log I get like 5 pm's, a larger ignore list is the least they can do to combat this problem.

Maybe move the whole friends/ignore list to be stored locally on the player's computer. Then it can be loaded up at start up or only whne needed. O and if a overhaul is gonna happen also add a small description to each person so one can remember why they are friends or ignored. Just store the database locally and make the whole thing more robust with functions and user friendliness.

I say make the list unlimited in size and have it stored on our own computer instead of the servers.

Make the Ignore List stored locally only yeah, I wouldn't recommend storing the Friends List locally.. As one thing I forgot to do when I re-formatted my PC a few months ago was backup my Templates, which kinda ticked me off..

Now losing your friends list would seriously annoy me, however the Ignore List isn't really a big of a deal if you lost that..

So yeah..

This would be really good; it would allow us to share ignore lists and essentially maintain a blacklist for the GW community. Yes, please do this! (I'm being so sincere right now...)

i agree because reporting is annoying when you can't find bots. You should be able to type in names to report

that would be beyond a nail in the coffin of pugs that would be a metal spike through the corpse insuring it does not dig its self out the grave and wreck havoc among the poor townsfolk

Not specifically for you, perhaps, but it is needed. If we can store builds locally, surely we can start storing contacts locally.

I gave up ignoring bots... however, I have had two stalkers on GW and a few angry ex guild members that got "el" boot from officers of mine. Another incident in UW got one dude pming me randomly about inappropriate stuff. Although I don't mind getting people banned, the last thing I want to do is screenshot your dumbass comments to me and report you to anet. I would much rather play with mature.
I think I have three people on my ignore list... two stalkers and an nub from UW that swore he was leetsauce (he was another failed attempt at trying to call UB leet).

/signed everyone even though I don't need it.

Server space isn't a problem, you are talking minimal storage for this.

Not just for bots..
I dont have any bots on my ignore but its still full.
problem is that alot of people have multiple accounts and they have absolutely no lives so they pm on you every account so you have to ignore that one too.
I had someone pm me from 5 different accounts just because he talked trash before a match and got owned and I told him next time dont talk trash.
So everyday I took him off ignore to free it up and there he is again.
So I have 5 names alone from 1 person on perma ignore.
another 10 slots would be great.
I would even settle for 5 slots and 5 temp slots.
