I think this is a good idea.  But I don't think I'll ever use it.   :woot:

Anything that gives us more control of the information we receive is a plus in my opinion.

hmmm well not against such an idea, but personally I think the /ignore list is enough. specially when combined with the /away command, but then again I don't feel a single tell now and then interupts with my roleplaying.

I somehow feel it would probably be used by nonroleplayers that "play evil" more often then by roleplayers aswell.

The /ignore command is something different entirely.  My suggestion is in the interest of having a more immersive roleplaying experience, not in protecting yourself from harassment.

I read that, but seein tells are now in a different tab then normal talking I don't see why a normal /away message stating you are roleplaying and so not responding to tells wouldn't be enough. Specially if you can throw people on the ignore list if they don't listen.

But if you dont want to even be notified of Tells, or recieve them, Zanzi's idea is better than Ignore list, because you wont have to add each individual name to the list.

With the latest chat window changes one can configure the window so that the Tells tab is never flashing. Tells would be still there, but your don't get notified about them. It will be available for everybody in the 0.3.017 release.
