Surviving and Thriving - Getting Started

Recently we have had a couple of offensive visitors on the chat site.  While I now have the capability to eject such a person from the site in most cases, I am not always present.  You can  make the offensive person’s comments become invisible so that you and your friends can chat without disturbance.  Please do not try to fight with such an offensive person.  They seek attention and any response to their heckling – including threats and invective – will reward them and bring them back again and again.  If we all ignore them, they will simply find another site to haunt. 

 

Thanks for your cooperation

How to Ignore a Pest in the Chat Rooms

 

From ichat:  Click on the problem chatter’s name on the right side of the screen so that it is highlighted.  Now right click.  You will see a list of options including ignore messages from this user.  Click that option and you will no longer see comments from this person at all. 

 

 

From java lite:   in your send bar type /ignore username  where the username is the name of the offensive chatter.  You will no longer see comments from that person.
