IDIOT'S GUIDE TO FED2
HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE
STOPPING COMMUNICATION
There are times when you do not want to receive messages. (Indeed, your nature may be such that you never want to receive messages, although if this is the case you probably won't advance very far in the game). Comm messages can be suppressed using 'COMMS OFF'; 'COMMS ON' will reverse the effect. Typing 'COMMS' on its own reminds you if you have comms turned on or off. XT messages can be suppressed by leaving the channel, with 'LEAVE CHANNEL'.
Tight beam messages cannot be suppressed in general; however, if a particular player is annoying you, then you can ignore any messages they send using 'BLOCK playername'. The block stops any message from the player - comm and say messages, TBs, relays, acts, kisses and so on. The only thing you will see is the player's presence in a room, or the player moving in and out.
You can only block someone who is in the game. The block lasts until you log off - if the annoying player leaves and comes back, the block remains. You can block as many people as you want at a time. 'BLOCK' on its own lists the people you are ignoring, and 'UNBLOCK playername' removes the block so messages will get through again.
Note that you cannot ignore staff!
