If I /ignore them, and they continue trying to talk to me, it CAN be (CAN, not necessarily WILL) a bannable offense
In this situation, I disagree.

The "moron" was just being lazy. If he acknowledged that all 5 characters were a single person, he should have /ignored all of them right away.

A while back, I was chatting with a friend in a vent server as he was getting replaced in a heroic for no apparant reason, other than they wanted their friend to run with them but they were not on at the time they started. They removed him from the group, but since they downed a boss, he was saved to the instance (no auto-hearth). He gave them the "you wasted my time, now I'm going to waste yours." They paged a GM to remove him from the instance. The GM whispered him, "...I can't make you leave..and if you don't, you're going to make enemies." He explained his side of the story, and the GM said this is partially the reason why you are "saved" to the instance. While he was chatting with the GM, he was /ignoring everybody in the group because they kept bugging him to leave. When he had the entire group on /ignore, they were asking their guild members to whisper him. He mentioned this to the GM...the GM asked him to create a new ticket, and finally responded with "...all I can suggest is to either 1) Turn off chat 2) Logout 3) /ignore every incoming whisper." He also added that if any of the incoming whispers became threatening or offensive (in the eye's of blizzard; he tried to claim that the word "instance" meant "big floppy donkey penis" in his "native" language), he would need to create a new ticket for each one. The GM saw thru his BS and the games that the other guys were playing and quickly uninvolved himself.

If an entire guild can send whispers, after getting /ignored one at a time...a multi-boxer can do the same.





Who starts a conversation and then puts the other person on ignore when they try to reply? If I was a GM and received both complaints, I would suspend both accounts for wasting my time. This is why I disable chat.
