Need some context to give any adequate answer.
I can say the only people that go instantly to ignore in game are really bad spammers of some variety or another, be it language, racist or immature things, or sales. Given we only have the 10 slots for ignore, I just cycle through and take a few off that have been on there forever and put a couple on.
In the forums, everyone has their fair say. I have never ignored anyone on a forum anywhere. May have replied to them directly, disputed or noted where I disagreed, but I see no point for ignore on a forum. Have fun with replies? Well sure sometimes, but I dont flame very often, I rather tend to share my view and where I agree or disagree.

In-game jerks almost always just do a hit and run and then ignore you before you ignore them. So what's there to do really? It would be interesting to see a more evolved jerk that could actually carry a conversation, but I haven't seen any yet.

If people are obviously being ridiculous, I don't mess with them. Report them if need be on the forums.
If they really don't know something and are just incorrect, I'll help.

Olim Chill
I'll try to help someone with a legitmate question or I might tell a beggar to go out and kill something.
As for the Hey everybody $#@#$% banter, well, I can't really be bothered. /ignore.

If it's someone needing help, I usually just don't say anything, though yesterday I actually gave a lot of help to a fellow Ritualist who asked about which quest he was supposed to do next; ended up giving him a bunch of tips for the class. One of the rare occasions that I do kind things for people.
If someone's begging, I mock them, and hilarity ensues for all listening.
If someone's arguing with me, I generally crush their feeble attempt at a debate.
If someone argues and uses racism, sexism, etc; I take advantage of that to take a screenshot and tell PlayNC about it.

For Beggar infestations I make this announcement: "FREE MONEY!!! See Ipillu Whupwup in Whitman's Folley!"
For potty mouthed twits: I tell 'em to grow up and put 'em on ignore.

I love it when this appears in local chat AB, it's like catnip to me.

If its something funny or interesting, I'll stick around for a while and maybe even join in the convo if I'm intrigued enough. If its some rant/drivel I ignore it or if I'm offended enough, report it and move on.

All the noobs love to call you names and then /ignore. They so annoying..

here is the urban dictionary version of e-peen for females. (second definition)
But seriously I find the best way is just to ignore them completely or be like I am stalking you outside your window.

Depends on what they say. Spammers and people who irritate me by begging for help or money or whatever get ignored. People who are genuinely newbish I try to help unless they cross that line and start to irritate me by begging. People who are just wasting my time I don't respond to, as most of them will go away. Those that don't go away get ignored.

Depends on mood.
Saint Zeth
I usually respond to people instead of just putting them straight on my ignore list. Arguments are the only kind of socializing I get in GW.
Parson Brown
I usually have my local and trade channels turned off, but if I happen to turn them on, I always play along.
DDL
I like how the original question simply asked "How do you react to what other players say", and EVERYONE to a man (or woman) has assumed "other players say negative/idiotic things only".
So..I'd go with "it depends on what they're saying".

just beat the mission with a friend. total of 4 mm really made this doable. and position really helps.

I just lure them on and on. I can actually see in my mind them pounding there keyboards and cussing my character
Its also funny to see that the more angry they get the worse their typing gets.
Great times!

You mean if i'm being flamed? Well, flame back. Then when i think i've won, whack 'em on ignore.

If I'm being subjected to another players oh-not-so-niceness..I usually ignore them until their mommies make them log off, and go eat their din-din.
RhanoctJocosa
agree with dan
Taurucis
It usually depends on my mood. If I'm feeling grumpy, I usually retaliate with sarcasm, sometimes I'll just ignore them.
Most of the time, however, I spit absolutely random insanity back at them. It's really fun, because then they get all confused and quit.

I usally play along, until I can think of a super-amazing zinger to end the flame war, or else I just dont join in. It goes a bit far when 2 teams are screaming "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBBBBBBB BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBSSSSSSSSSSSSSS" at each other.

Regarding the topic, usually I don't care what people say unless I know them.
RedStar
I'm a bot. So I don't care what players say (all my chats are generally turned off so I can farm more effectively xD).
If I like the players, I'll just think of an answer that will make him happy
(RL ie :
-"him": does that makes me look fat ?
-"me" : no ^^).
And Avarre, thank you for answering that lol.

Marty Silverblade
Depends really. If its one of those up-themselves wammo stereotype people yelling at me for not running mending, I'll have a bit of patience but the second thay start any hostility I'll give them shit until they realise I've owned them and they put me on ignore or threaten to report me (in which case I couldn't care less because I know they're just bluffing).
If they disagree with me and they can prove themselves, then that's fine with me.
Can't really give a much more detailed answer then that unless we have a specific situation.

Most of the time my talk channels are off, unless I need something. But even when they're on I ignore the gross of what is said. I only say something if someone needs information/help.

^^what he said^^
Local is off 99% of the time...because immature discussions about sex, uneducated political debates, and random flames about someone's mother just don't interest me.
If someone tries to start something with me I simply blow them off...100% of the time they give up and move on to somebody else.
