ixfd64 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 In AIM, if you block someone, you will appear offline to them even if you are really online. In RuneScape, even if you put someone on ignore, you will still appear online, but you won't receive their messages. But now, some people are saying that the ignore list works like AIM now (if you put them on ignore, you'll appear offline). Is this true? I don't want to break the no multi-logging rule just to find out.

Dexek Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I remember before my friend and I tested this. When I added him to the ignore list he did appear offline.

dymed Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Don't bother testing it, it's true. You don't see a person as online if he has you on his ignore list and has private chat set to "friends". If he has you on the ignore list but private chat set to "on", then you will see him as online but he won't get any of your messages. And of course, if he has it set to "off", then he'll be offline to everyone. This is nothing new though. Been like that for as long as I can remember I'm pretty sure. I never use the ignore list anyway. Never have and never will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexek Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 In that case, yes you will appear online. PoetryIndexed Picture 1Indexed Picture 2 Killed my maxed Zerker pure April 2010 Rebooting Runescape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets_3ekout Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 In my opinion you should appear offline. the reason being is that if you accidently manage to block one of your friends then they could end up trying to talk to you for ages, and then when you un-block then they wont like you much for it because they think you just ignored them yourself to annoy them.

elit9 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I'm almost certain it used to be that if you had a person on ignore, they couldn't tell if you were online or not. What positive thing could possibly come out of changing it? If you have someone on ignore, you don't want to associate with them in any way; so why let this person know the world you are on? Honestly I think jagex changes some things only because they are bored and have nothing better to do :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordjake Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I'm very sure it's been like that for a very long time. If someone has you on ignore list and online, you can't see the person as being online. If I add "person21" to ignore list and still go around training, he wouldn't know that I'm online.

elit9 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 Oh I must have read it wrong then. It's always been "on ignore --> appear offline" as far as I can remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixfd64 Posted April 23, 2006 Author Share Posted April 23, 2006 I know that you will still appear online for people ignore on RS Classic, though.
