Once a player has a star in front of name it is not possible to squelch that person.

One guy I think kyle53 or something like that was so abusive with a foul mouth that people tried to squelch him.  He bragged with a string of the F word that he could not be squelched because he had two stars.  At the time I was in a good furbal and could not remember how to squelch so I looked it up this morning and found this older post.

Is this still in effect?

Last time I had this problem I used the clipboard and squelch worked from there.

HTC has already said this bug is fixed for the next patch. What about using .report as that is probably a better solution and is what it's there for.

I am very tolerant of the language in AH.  This is only guy I have even remotely thought of squelching.  I will try the clipboard and the .report if it happens again.  I suspect he has already been reported and probably for the same incidence.  He had a lot of people angry with his arrogance and using the star as his shield.

I haven't tried it yet, not many online hours, but I read that squelch still works through the clipboard as mentioned above.

Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

The .squelch only filters that player from you for that game session - you would have to .squelch him every time you log in and see him.

The .report (if said player gets enough of them) will mute him for [I think] eight days. If he appeals the mute and presents evidence to HTC, and they decide it was unjustified, the mute will be lifted.

I have never squelched anyone, and have only .reported a handful in the few years that I've been here...but then I haven't spent much time in the Late War arena until recently.

This was the only incident I have run into.  Might be a nice guy that just had a bad day.  Several people have got heavy with the langauge but I have too in my life  but 99% of the folks are real nice people.
