Currently, the 'ignore' list for contracts stops at 80 entries. Given the immense amount of idiotic scammers placing 'want to buy' orders as well as the already clumsy Contract interface, the limit for ignored buyers/sellers should be expanded by a large amount.
I support Eve's cutthroat market and contract nature in general; indeed, stupid or inattentive people should be punished and have the opportunity to improve. However, the current contract system is already so slow and clumsy that the proliferation of 'lame dog' 'Want to Buy' contracts at 1/10 market value does not serve to reward the savvy buyers and punish the stupid. Rather, such buy orders only clutter an already poor interface and prolong the agony when purchasing items we can only buy from contracts.
:Argh:
So, given that intelligent buyers will strongly benefit from this enhanced feature and The Stupid will fail to exercise their frontal cortex (thus ensuring 'business as usual'), I would like to have a vastly expanded Ignore list implemented for Contracts.
At a minimum: several hundred entries, though I would prefer unlimited.
Thank you.

Here's a thumbs up as well, since the forums ate my original tick on the 'support' box.
(When are CCP going to fix their apparently patented 'Programmed by Stupids' forums? Ever? I could download free forum software that does a better job...)

I'd certainly like some enhanced filtering methods, to be sure.
You can't filter out WTB orders, regardless if they're twitscam or not, which is one big annoyance.
In a game w/ 400k users it would sure be nice to ignore more than 80 idiots.

If more than 500 people add a character to their ignore list, the character should not be able to make any more contracts |

Yes you can.
Search for contracts as normal and set the minimum price to 1 ISK. It will now show all orders with a positive price - and therefore cut out all WTB contracts.

I support this idea, free feature or as an new effect of Contracting skill, or even as a new skill, for my Simple View is always half filled with absolutly irrelevent contracts.

More database filling and potential lag?? No thanks. If you increase it now, you will need to increase it again and again and again until jita is even more gridlocked.
How about a little bit more thought into prevention? (not trying to be an ass btw)
I agree with the intent of the message, just not the implementation. So meh.

Wouldn't need to be Database Intensive, all it needs is a list of people whos contract's you want to ignore stored locally on the Client, not the server. Then when you open the Contracts Window the server sends the full list to the Client which then filters out the ones you don't want to see.
