This is ridiculous. The ignore list is being used inappropriately. I am now being ignored by a player...who I will not name. I have played a friendly game with him and no problems occured. He ignored me for the reason of ... unwillingness to lose! wtf?
Definitly disagree with this policy. Being ignored on accounts of being, well, a good player is the dumbest thing I've had happen to me on this site, and there have been alot of dumb things.

Join the club. I have found 2 recently who have put me on their ignore, because I cost them points...

Let me put this in some perspective for you. This situation could parallel Tom Brady refusing to play against a team, I.E. the Dolphins, just because they have a great linebacker, Taylor, who might beat his game up!
Isn't CC's ignore list meant to ignore players who piss you off or do crap to you?

i'm pretty sure i'm on a whole lot of ignore lists.
but since i haven't been given any reasons for it, i have convinced myself that it is because i am the "much too sexy", and the other dudes are jealous of it, and the women are intimidated by it.
because, after all, it couldn't possibly be because of anything I'VE done.
have you ever seen an idealist with grey hairs on his head? or successful men who keep in touch with unsuccessful friends? you only think you did i could have sworn i saw it too but as it turns out it was just a clever ad for cigarettes.

What does it matter if you are on someone's ignore list or not?
The only one that really matters is that you are excluded from joining a game that they're in. Honestly, I don't think that's enough reason in and of itself to get bent about it. However, assuming the OP is correct and the player is just trying to avoid him because he's "too good" then that's sort of lame.

Seriously...you go to join a game and can be denied access to the game because someone already in that game has you on ignore?
I would think it would just block out text from that person here and in game chat.
And...yea...it's pretty lame to ignore someone because they are better than you. But...I would think it should be fine to be able to ignore anyone for any reason. There is no accounting for taste or thin skin...as it were...

i tried to join a private 8 player game when a new map came out.. a certain person did not like my "attitude" in the forums, etc... so i was on his ignore. never played him, never knew he existed, never even dissed him in the forums... had to beg to get in the game, and the jackass acted like he was doing me a favor. you should not be able to put someone on ignore, unless you have played a game against them...-0

Or that facet of ignore should be re-vamped.
I could see wanting to ignore someone in the forums even if you've never played against them (with the exception that I think the need to use ignore is somewhat weak). But having that effect a user's ability to join games?
i have been put on people's ignore list because i have stated in the forums i will give a neg to anyone who destroys a FoW game by declaring the size of armies positioned around the map.
oh well, it is their loss. they could have kicked my arse in sunny games for the easy points.

You get paid a whole lot for playing on CC?

Two things.... Taylor is a defensive lineman. And he sucked last season.
But I agree, it's kind of annoying that people do that. That being said, it's their ignore list and they have a right to put whomever they want on it... I don't see a fair way of changing it.
No eternal reward will forgive us now for wasting the dawn.

Who cares how much he is making.
I think it's more impressive that he gets to shag this just for playing CC....
