Common Problems

  • I don't want to receive messages from a specific player.
  • How do I block whispers from another player?

Our games are designed to be friendly social experiences; however, we have included tools to block unwanted communication from other players in-game. If another player's communication is in violation of our Code of Conduct, please also consider reporting the incident to us for investigation.

Blocking a Player

There are several ways to ignore a player in Diablo III:

  • Right-click on the character's name in the chat log and select Block Communication.
  • Enter the following command in the chat box: /ignore charactername
    Note: If the character is in a Clan, do not include their <CLAN> tag.

While ignored, the player cannot whisper you, send group invites, or request a group invite. You will not see their messages in public chat channels.

Removing a Player from the Blocked List

To remove a player from the Blocked list, if they are still visible in the chat history, you can right-click the character name and select Unblock Communication. Otherwise, follow these steps:

  1. Hit Esc to bring up the game menu.
  2. Select Options.
  3. Select Social.
  4. Under the Blocked list, find the character name and click Unblock.
