You got a point there. A strong point, even. Unfortunately the ignore function doesn't stop any replies with quotes to the messages of the ignored one from appearing on your screen.

You can also add friends, which is a more positive action. I think I shall add some friends to my list, since it is pretty empty.

What does the Add Friend option do, anyway? I experimented with it by adding Thernsy as a Friend, but nothing observable happened.

When you look at your User Control Panel, you can see which of your friends are actually online. That's pretty much it, I believe. It can be a handy tool, but don't expect fireworks and puppies.

Aaaah, I see. Makes sense. I was wondering why Galla's name was differently styled than Thernsy's. Useful, indeed.

Because Vietnam was colonized by the French and probably had experience with American beer during the Vietnam war. Maybe you should check if there's Vietnamese wine, that might actually be the better alternative.

The Friend List is a more surefire way of checking if they are present. If they do not respond immediately after sending them a TG, you can unleash your righteous fury upon them by asking them in no uncertain terms why they are ignoring you.
