Add a toggle that blocks all 200m achievements after the first one from the same player, and a toggle that blocks all boss pet broadcast spam after the first one. I really don't want to see ppl spamming my broadcasts when I don't care about them and will never PM them or interact. My broadcast settings are the same and don't need to be changed. They are trying to get attention, and I don't want to give them any.

The toggle makes sure all future broadcasts from that player aren't visible to you after the first one they get. This toggle can be set with settings variable from all players, to you can still see friends broadcasts to you can't see any broadcasts after the first one. The toggle keeps track of the player even if they name change.

This isn't an ignore list, just cuts down on the amount of spam a single player or group of players can do to your chat box as there are players who play on multiple accounts to spam achievements on all of their accounts which just gets in the way and is annoying.

As for hero item broadcasts, those are rare enough to where it's unlikely you'll see a single player spam multiple shadowy keys or if they're opening big stacks of masters or have multiple red maps to spam tavai's but the above toggle can still hide those if you want.

Thoughts?

I wish they would so something specifically for pet drops. I've had my world broadcasts off for some time because of this. It's 100% intentional, they were bragging at wilderness flash events and tons of people were not happy about it. Their defense was they 'only' do it on 2 worlds. Give me a break.

Agreed. We need to limit how many times a single account can broadcast pet drops. Some ppl delete their pets over and over again just to annoy us.

They are turned off yet I still see the broadcasts. It doesn't filter out.
