LeeRoyJenkins has continued to repeatedly spam me with unwanted private messages every time I log on.

I do not talk to this person, I do not game with this person, I do not engage him in any way, ever.

Yet he continues to ruin my gaming experience with endless spamming.

I will explain why /dnd and /ignore LeeRoyJenkins are not enough.

Using the /dnd feature works only until I reconnect, and it also deprives me of a component of the gaming experience that should be fully functioning, that is, I should be able to whisper and receive whispers from friends that I want to hear from, who are also blocked by /dnd.

Typing /ignore LeeRoyJenkins during a game when my screen is spammed up with his nonsense takes only seconds, yes, but seconds count and that little interruption to what is going on in the game can easily ruin the game, especially in situations like getting the first hit with peon, cancelling building, UC early game etc., where you can't afford to miss a second.

This is getting ridiculous. This guy is some kind of obsessive creep and my having to be subject to this kind of harassment every time I log on is retarded.

I haven't been taking SS's every day when he msges me, since there are already 500 SS's of him harassing various people.

I took one pic tonight, but there are many, many, many, especially during games I didn't take since there's no shortage of evidence that this guy is a problem.

I'll clarify that this isn't about *WHAT* the person is saying, nor am I suggesting that people should be babysat so no one is allowed to be "mean". This is about an ongoing, routine spamming up of the screen during games that ruins the games. The pictures tend to be of chat channel since that's when I'm not concentrating on something else, but it shows that the guy has a serious issue with repetitive unwanted one-way messaging. This is similar to the problem that was had before with the "XXXX has added you to friend list" spamming that was happening until it was removed because it was interfering with game play.

i warned him again today but he seems pretty hostile & unreceptive to the suggestion that he stop doing what he's doing. i agree that you shouldn't have to deal with someone spamming you crap while you're trying to play for weeks on end. i can't really ban him indefinitely, but if he's going to insist on being a horse's ass then i can kick him off the server and give a 30min tempban to disrupt his playing like he's disrupting yours. 
squeak!

oh and another great byproduct of identifying and hooking the messaging procs for the hosting issue is that we would be able to fix the /squelch command at the same time, so it doesn't expire at the end of every game :)

It could even be done with a squelch.txt file in the wc2 folder with a permenant list of names, although I'm not sure if that would be the best thing for the community in the long run.... mind you then we could distribute CE with leeroy, van and a couple of others pre-written into the squelch.txt to avoid scaring of noobs ;)
its gooder to hax hard and NEVER get caught!

 Leroy should be banned for a good while every time he does this.  He's a toxic dick whos a long time repeat offender.
Squelch.txt is great idea
