Good news is that your ignore list now extends to the Meeting Place. There is a new option in the upper right hand corner of the Meeting Place player invite menu that allows you to both add and remove players from your ignore list by simply clicking on it.
Problem is a glitch with the Instant Action Button.. It automatically puts your partner on your permanent ignore list. Through some trial and error the following has been concluded:
1.) If you ask someone to dance, (or any otherr instant action of your choosing) you will be talking to yourself. Your partner can hear you, but you cannot hear them..
2.) Your partner doesn't know you can't hear them and they think you are ignoring them or there is a glitch, so they exit the meeting room and try again, only this time they are unknowingly on your ignore list and you can't hear them speaking at any point after that.
3.) Instant Action is not completely futile at this point... If you are quick enough, it is possible to click the ignore button AFTER you invite and BEFORE your partner accepts to clear the ignore. This requires doing it right the FIRST TIME... other wise one of you goes on ignore.. and the frustration ensues. ("can you hear me now? Helloooooooooooo??? ....... damnit" )
As someone who has a wedding planned in the meeting place in less than 8 days...This is a crushing blow. Imagining us facing each other holding hands trying to say our vows and not being able to hear each other speak .. not to mention that fun and dancing among the guests is for a lack of a more imaginable word.. F**KED!!!!!!!!!!!! :'( :'( :'( ??? ???
