How can this happen?
Someone on my ignore list has whispered me twice in the last few days. I should not receive their messages if I have ignored them.
Since I have two accounts I was able to test this and the results are as follows (and as expected): Player A ignores Player B (I tested this with Player B being online, away, DND and offline status.) -Player A is in Player B's friends list, but Player B cannot see when player A is online. The only way Player B knows that Player A is online is to try to send a message to the (active) character. -Player B messages player A and receives the message "Player A is ignoring you." Player A does not actually receive any message from Player B and has no idea Player B is attempting to message them because they have ignored Player B. Otherwise, if Player A is not logged in the message "Player A is offline" is received by Player B. -Player A can message Player B and Player B will receive the message but can't respond. As I said, this person is in my ignore list and I have confirmed that their name is correctly spelled - yes, I was ignoring the right person! So, how is it possible that this person was able to whisper me and that I would actually receive their message? The only other explanation I can think of is that this person could have made a character on a second account that was so similarly named to the one I have ignored that I did not notice because I was busy. |

The moral of the story: It is best to be more clever than the person you wish to ignore.
