people can contact me when im playin a game... even though i have chosen to ignore people via the options box.... and guests also during the game...

so how can people still get through to me when im playing?????

Was it on your shot, or the opponent's? + Were they on your friends list?

I think those 2 things mite have something to do with it although i'm not entirely sure.

When i try to contact people that are ignoring people whilst competing but are on my friends list, i cant contact them at all

I think you've put this in the wrong place!

It should be on game shouts I think.

it shouldnt cos he is wonderin why this has happened

TYes, its in the right place as this question is a querie

Basically this is to prevent abusive people sending you messages to put you off when you are about to take a shot.

In any of these cases the message will still get to you:
- You are already chatting to them
- They are on your friend list
- They are a mod or admin
- You are playing a friendly game
- After a game finishes but before the next game starts

or they are in the same room as you =) right?

i think tht was the case aswell!!

They can still chat via the main chat at the bottom but not via a new private message.

i am having this problem and they aint oin the same room or even in my game, and also are not in my freind's list but yet i still receive pms

It's irrelevant what room either of you are in.
