Flash Chat abuse

It has come to my attention that there has been some abuse in the chat room such as putting someone on your ignore list.

What this does is if a person is on someone's ignore list, a box will pop up letting them know that a member (it shows who is ignoring them) has added them to their ignore list.
Well this box remains, and the person who is on the ignore list is then not able to use the chat room to chat with other members.

Could be a fluke with the software, I am not sure.
Down the road we will upgrade also to the same software, only newer.

But for now, if someone is abusing the chat room by using the "ignore" feature, I will set them to a secondary usergroup called "No Chat" which will block you from accessing the chat room at all.

I hate to take these drastic measures, but we want others to be able to enjoy the chat room.
If you are here to abuse the chat room, then you will be abused by having your access to the chat room removed.

I like that last sentence: "...you will be abused...."
