Category: gtk-ui Group: None >Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: rsk254 (rsk254) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Enhanced functionality of ignoriblocking while in chat rooms Initial Comment: 1. A toggle switch. When set to "off", ignored and unignored users both appear on the room's roster (with the former noted with an X), just as they are today. When set to "on", ignored users are not shown at all. Reason: in many Yahoo chat rooms, bots outnumber real users 2:1, 3:1, or 4:1. There seems little need to display them as present if they're being ignored. 2. On the same pulldown menu which now includes "info" and "ignore" -- among other options -- include "block". Reason: having identified a user as a bot, I'd like to be able to remove it from my sight permanently. Reason for keeping "ignore" around as well: "ignore" is temporary, "block" is forever. 3. Add the ability to apply pulldown menu actions to users by clicking on their handle in the chat itself. (My guess is that this may not be as good an idea as I thought it was at first, but I'm throwing it in for consideration anyway.) Reason: avoids the need to scroll the room roster to locate the user. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: rsk254 (rsk254) Date: 2007-02-26 18:39 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1260743 Originator: YES That (sorting ignored users to the bottom) is a really good idea. And it would mesh well with the sorting of buddies to the top. So let me modify my request to suggest that perhaps -- if it's a relatively lightweight change -- that we try it and see how it works in practice. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Richard Laager (rlaager) Date: 2007-02-26 17:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=156487 Originator: NO What if we just sorted ignored users to the bottom of the list? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=350235&aid=1669311&group_id=235 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
