Seriously tho if it bothered you that much you just wouldn't have anyone on your friends list.

I will talk to them most of the time. But if for example I'm playing a clan game, I don't want windows popping up on frame ball...

At all other times I would like to talk to them. Why are you so against this little box? You don't have to use it...


I'm not really against it, I just don't see any point in it.

If your friends read this thread and they have some sense, I'm sure they'll know not to pm you while your in a game.

most people just don't check whether someone is in a game or not... They just pm.
So, thats exaclty the reason for this addition

And also, i just can't remind every player out there not to pm me while on a game, over and over again.

Well then dont delete them.

I got 60 friends on here I can only talk to 2/3 at a time, and the odds them all being on at the same time are very slim.

Today being on a few hours had 2 3 PM's all day and only 1 at a time i could just say :O Dont Pm me i'm in a game

ok imagine if fuzzy had 80 friends on his friends list but he doesn't want to delete them all, how would you block pm from friends?

the ignore all pms should be just that imo including friends (staff would have to be able to pm you of course due to default)

thats right dgen i have a full friend list or near full i prob speak to 40 of them but sometimes i dont want to talk i just wanna play there should be an option like on msn to apper offine (meaning by that that your friendlist cannot send a chat to you because you are set to idle time )

Appear Offline or set my status to Busy so im not bombarded with party invites.

its the same scenario here really.

I second Fuzzy's idea..

Also, please

I wanted to suggest. A blonde 5'11'' leggy Swede, massaging my back after a frame of Regular Snooker. That would be nice addition too.

Lol

Only joking

And nah just delete all of your friends, cant be to botherd about talking to them if you don't want them to PM you!


sorry si123 ... not true.

I just dont want pm's. They interfere with my work at the pc, plus the pop up that appears distracts me.

I'd be glad to accept and answer to msgs :)


He doesnt want pm's,just press ignore all instead of this debate.

but friends can pm you thats what the thread is for.

ignoring pms at the moment is everyone except Staff and Friends, Fuzzy would like an option to ignore pms from friends (Staff would be able to pm him in case something important came up)

It's really odd that such a simple request has had such a vocal response. Quite a nice little addition (albeit not the highest priority) as I'm sure that a lot of people have received an inconveniently timed PM from a well meaning friend at one time or another.

what is the point of having a friends list if you want to ignore them,a tad rude dont you think?

A fairly simple solution would be to increase the "no pms while in games" to include friends aswell.

At least that way you cannot get pms while playing and if you leave a game room you are free to get pms when they cant distract you from play and if you still dont want to be disturbed for whatever reason, between games you could create a private room and just practise there
