Simply Ignoring People

Postby Leo Luncid » Tue Nov 08, 2005 4:40 am

I can't believe no one else ever thought up of this one, I think. I searched through using the terms ignore list, ignorance, ignoring, and hate. But here's my suggestion anyways.

There's seems to be a certain number of people whose characters hate others, right? How about ignoring them, really? There could be an "ignore button" beside each character under "people," and clicking that would lead up to options such as: Ignore this person until he/she hits me, Ignore this person until he/she says (type word/s here), Ignore this person until he/she gives me something, Ignore this person until tommorow and so on. And if you decide to not ignore a person who was saying something to you, you wouldn't know what he/she said before because he/she already said it when you were ignoring him/her, so not knowing what he/she said would be your fault, really. And, course, there would be a button to disable ignoring a person. Oh yeah, I forgot: You can hear that person who was talking to you, but you don't know what he or she just said because you were ignoring him or her.

Example:
Instead of...
"A man in his twenties says: {censored due to extremely strong language; seriously, you don't want to read it}" :wink:
There would be...
"You hear a man in his twenties say something."

Go ahead. Tell me what you think.

Characters seem to be able to manage the trick well enough as it is. Who needs an extra button?

Yeah, I think if you wanna ignore someone else just don't answer them. No need for another OOC button.
I refuse to answer that question on the grounds that I don't know the answer.

Yes, that would be to much OOC. Please move this to rejected at once :P

Agreed, too much OOC. If you were ignoring someone in real life you would still hear what they say but choose to ignore it. You can't just turn them into a blank spot in your life.

:lol: Haven't thought of it that way. Though on the other hand if it were to be implemented those of you who don't agree to it should just ignore the whole thing yourselves. :lol: ... Still, you've made a good point.

There, I've updated the introductory post. Will that change people's minds now? :lol: Oh yeah, I can still see a few flaws, but still...

Ok, I guess it's all settled then, Pie. Although this may be a bad topic to mention this, at least it's settled.
