  • How To Ignore People *IN GAME*

People have requested it, trolls prompted it. Similar to my tool to ignore people on the
forums, now there is a tool to erase them ingame as well.


Not only can it ignore specific people, but it can match and filter certain phrases as
well. Hate those WTS spammers? I do too; this gets rid of them (optionally).



Download link:
http://nfignore.googlecode.com/files/nfignore-1.1.zip

No setup is required, just unzip anywhere and run the NFIgnore.exe

There are two text files:
ignore_users.txt
ignore_phrases.txt

Both can be edited to your liking.


For those who are interested in the source code or have bugs to report, here is the
project page:
http://nfignore.googlecode.com/


Enjoy

*update* (Oct 3)
I have released a new version with several improvements and bug fixes. I am still working
on ingame-integration (typing /ignore person) and user whitelists/blacklists.

This couldn't have come at a better time. Spamming is getting worse and worse. I cannot
wait for the white list feature. I wanted to suggest it but I am not as bold as Rehor.
I'm going to start making my list of people who i don't block. I've been advertising this
nifty program to as many people as possible and I've talked with a few mods and they have
said this program is OK to use, but to keep watching the post in case the GM's say its not
allowed. What I don't understand is why this feature wasn't programmed into NF in the
first place. Thanks for this program. I'm tired of telling people that advertising in
battle rooms is against the rules.

Alot of it was self taught, and some also came from a computer science degree. The
biggest factor was self interest.


I usually recommend people get started with python, because it is easy on beginners and
powerful enough for hardcore hackers. Here are some links for non-programmers who want to
get into programming:

Shaggs, you are #@%^ing BRILLIANT! Where, how did you learn your stuff? I aspire to be a
programmer myself one of these days, so any hints or advice you would give would be
lovely. ^_^

Ok rehor. I will had a whitelist in addition to the current system that is a blacklist.
I can also add regex support to player lists just like phrases. This will allow
blacklisting ".*", and whitelisting specific people.

I am trying to figure out if I can capture outgoing chat messages, so you can ignore
people ingame if you type "/mute whoever"



*edit:
You would pay credits? Hmm... I do need credits for BB6. On second thought, I' m not
asking for anything.

I want that.

I want that so bad I'd . . . pay . . . a couple credits.

But seriously, I really really want that.

I would assume so. From a coding standpoint, it's actually child's play; when you
check the chat packet for words you don't want so you can drop it, it should be
simple to reverse the procedure so that it only doesn't drop it if it detects something.
I assume that currently it works like:

check packet{
if(user= in blocked list) drop packet;
if(word= in blocked list) drop packet;
}

You should be able to swap it around easily:

check packet{
if(user= in allowed list) continue;
drop packet;
}

Assuming that it's programmed in C.

Alright, please note that the following is dead serious.

Is there a way of making that .txt file be an allow list that contains the people who you
do not ignore, with everybody else being ignored?
