/ignore -p * is a bad idea ?
"I can't receive messages!!!!" is never muttered in a help channel by someone who's last help was told to type /ignore -p * ?
A newbie knows he is on dalnet and can type //mode $me +R ?
There are tons of ppl who get themselves into a pm convo that is looking ugly. Are they going to chose then to read the help file ?
Do these ppl want. Are you feeling lonely http://.. popping up every 5 mins when all they want to do is chat in channel ?
I'm suggesting tie /ignore -p * in with an icon that turns red. then if a good idea reply once every 5secs and or echo msg's received exceed 5. You can script whatever you like and ignore the feature.
