Box Critters Ignore Feature
Rocketsnail has announced on discord that he has implemented an ignore feature. This is what he said:

This is a quick ignore feature, meaning it does not have the save element at this time and will only apply for the session. You would enter into chat:
/ignore NICKNAME HERE
I’m glad to see this feature as if a player is bothering you, that means you can now ignore them! Do you like this feature, leave a comment and let me know.
