Title: help with the gag command
Post by: ah_clem on September 14, 2010, 09:19:38 PM
If I issue a gag command, does it apply to only the current session or does it last forever?  i.e. when I log in tomorrow, is the person still gagged or do I have to do it every time?  The documentation on this is unclear.

If it applies to only the current session, is there a way to make it hold across sessions?  My usual client is JavaFibs.

There are a few people I'm tired of and my life would be better without ever reading their crap again.  No doubt you're familiar with the phenomenon.  Thanks.

Current session only, and if they log out and in, you need to do it again...tedious huh?  ;)

Use the villain feature on javafibs...that stops it all, until you remove it.

I've also mad a gag <player> programmable button as well as a blind <player> programmable button.

Ok, that explains why he wouldn't stay in Plonkville - it was like playing whack-the-weasel.  I'll try the villain feature.

In javafibs, right click the name from the players list window, select RELATION, GAG N BLIND and, just like Stalin, youve made him a non-person.

Yes, I believe whack-a-mole is the more common term even on this side of the pond, but I've always thought "whack the weasel" trips off the tongue more readily.
