Ignoramus

Abandoned
helps you ignore players with hard-to-type names

Description

What it does

Adds an option to context menus that allows you to ignore or unignore a player. Without having to type the name. Works on names in chat, too.

About

In the Mists beta I met a lot of players that I would not want to have to team again. /ignore is your friend.

But there's a problem: unlike on my home-realm, many players have names that I can hardly type. Some are only displayed as a bunch of question marks with the default font. I made me a macro for those:

/script AddOrDelIgnore(GetUnitName("target", true));

It kind of annoyed me that I can report players with a rightclick, but not ignore them. I started looking for an addon to help me and found... nothing. Only some basic examples in the forums about how the context menus can be extended. I baked this into an addon for my own use. Maybe some more people can make use of it.

Localization

Should not be necessary. Uses a localized blizzard string. Let me know if this gives you stupid results in non-english languages.
