Hi, I painstakingly compile a list of players blacklisted who have been abusive toward me. Then, today, one hops on a table as my partner, to make it worse I am the host! What does ignore list actually do if it doesnt prevent such occurances?

Thoughts? Regards J

All it does is keep you from seeing their chat. They are "ignored". It doesn't stop them from joining your table.

If someone is in your ignore list they won't join your table automatically when they use the "Help me find a game" feature. But it doesn't prevent them from joining the table by hand.

If you activate "Permission required to sit" at your table, ignored players cannot join. They can click, but their requests to sit are silently deleted by the BBO system and you never receive them. Same if they try to invite you to play, or send you any other type of invitation or request.

If you seats are open to all, then ignored players won't be automatically sent to your table via "Help me find a game" but they will be able to click and sit if they want to.

THanks Diana but that's not quite the same.

FWIW, Sub-Any in tourneys can bring in explicitly excluded Ignored players too ��
