Session Mute
Version: 1.00
by: Alianym [More]
Welcome to Session Mute!

Conceived after an adventure in Cyrodiil, (and as I found out later, rather similar to a discontinued and outdated AddOn called Mute List), this lets you mute players in chat from the player context menu and they'll be silenced (or their messages will be defaulted to <Muted Message> depending on options), until you /reloadui or logout. That way you can save space on your Ignore List for those who truly deserve it, and just session mute the trolls and spammers while you scope Craglorn zone chat for Trial PUGs or Cyrodiil for battle callouts.

How Do I Use It?
Good question! Simply right-click on the player's name in chat, and select "Session Mute". This will add them to a temporary list which you can view at any time with "/sessionmutelist". You can right-click their name again in the displayed list and select "Session Unmute" to remove them from the mute list if you so desire. You can also manually unmute a player by using the command "/sessionmuteremove <player name>, but the list option is probably better so you can get the exact name stored in the list.

In the AddOn settings there is a toggle to show the messages you're missing, but with the content removed. So for example; [xxLegolasxx] says: <Muted Message>. That way you can tell if they're still chattering away or not. Or you toggle that off and they'll just be hidden from view.

This applies to all chats, (/party, /zone, etc.), but if you mute by player name and not account name (account name start with @) then you may have to mute each character if they swap and start the same spam on another character. Which they'd have to be pretty dedicated to do.

I'll add some screenshots soon!

To Session Mute, Or Not To Session Mute?*
Good rule of thumb:
  • If a player asks for gold two seconds after meeting you... Session Mute!
  • If a player hijacks conversation to rant about their political views... Session Mute!
  • If a player complains about their own alliance in Cyrodiil while acting like they're not part of the problem... Session Mute!

*Don't take this too seriously. Session Mute responsibly. Or not. It's up to you.

Required Libraries:
LibAddonMenu

Additionally tested with pChat for compatibility. Thanks Baertram for all your help testing this with me.
