Can we get a Temporary Ignore option?

Ignore is only as permanent as you choose it to be. You can remove players from your ignore list at any time. That lets you temporarily or permanently ignore a player as you see fit.

I have to agree. My tendency is to put annoying folks on ignore. And the next time someone's on my ignore list, I remove everyone else that's on it. So, other than this one character, who I'm thinking got banned for racial slurs, there's nobody else on it. As far as raid leaders and such...I just make notes, mostly good. The bad ones, well, I've only rarely run into truly bad leaders.

I was on a team of three one time. I kept asking one of the others to do something and they never replied. Finally, I asked the third person what was going on.

He communicated with the second person and then told me that the guy had me on ignore. I asked him to ask the second person why I was on ignore (I didn't recognize the global or anything). The third person said that the second didn't remember why I was on ignore. 

 

I think this is reasonable QOL suggestion. I think a lot of people are prone to use ignore and then just forget about it. It doesn't just affect them.

I think a time-limited Ignore feature would be a good thing, and it is something I would use.

 

The limited number of players on my ignore list are a mix of folks who had public meltdowns of hateful talk or just an endless sort of jibber-jabber across channels or for some reason got into public spats in open channels with each other. Some of these just needed to be off my radar for a short period of time.
