#6 Gagging

[Dan Kuck-Alvarez]

Gagging is a simple process of systematically ignoring a user. The user tells the server that he doesn't care to see messages from this user anymore and the server no longer shows them.

When this is implemented we may determine whether to accept messages and forward them but not show them to the user or we can ignore messages altogether and not even accept them. This is up to the implementer, but if you could give some explanation for your choice, it'll help future developers.
