Can we get a auto/common ignore list

It is getting quite painful coming in here daily and adding all these cheating fuckin morons to my ignore list.

Twill is there no way that when you bust someone they can automatically go on everyones ignore list or even better would be a multi list that you guys keep and we can opt in to so that they don't join any of our games ?

I think adding them to your ignore list is kind of redundunt.
Correct me if I'm wrong Twill but from my understanding if a multi is found they are all baned(and therefore unable to join games) until they purchase premium membership and then only one of the names can be used.

I was under the impression tehy were banned from playing together.

Regardless if one of the cheating scumsucking pigs accounts are allowed to be used, I don't want him/her in any of my games, hence I have to troll through here and continually add names.

moz976 is correct. I think it's a waste of time to try and add every banned multi to your ignore list. Only a portion of them are mentioned in this forum anyways.

This was changed recently this is a quote from Lack

Rule #1: No more warnings. They're not very effective. For now on when I detect a multiple account this is what happens: They can't start or join any new games, can't use the forum, and disappear from the scoreboard. That is, until they upgrade to Premium.

Rule #2: Still have to code that reputation score... in the meantime take notes of who teams up against you


I guess if you still want to ignore them after they have gone premium a central list would be nice.

A player that cheats once... will do so again.

This is why I add all the usernames that Lack or Twill ID's as cheaters... to my Ignore List.

Better safe... than sorry.

Well, if they upgrade to premium, then we can check their billing info and block multis, thus (theoretically) eliminating their cheating ways.

For the most part, people with multis are only looking to play more than the 4 games. For every multi we bust here, we bust 2 or 3 others you guys dont see.

Adding people to your ignore list only serves the purpose of taking up space and eventually lagging the server databases ;)

Well then what is the point of the ignore list other than to ignore all these cheating dumbasses ?

Sounds like you could sweep the ignore lists database now and delete everyone that's replicated in the ban lists now to reduce even that. Problem though is most people don't want to play with known cheaters even if they paid for premium and should technically be clean.

i don't mind playing them after they have premium we know it is harder for them knowing a. they are being watched and b. it is harder for multi's who are use to playing as 2 to even play as a 1 person
