Ignore and Block
Examples of reasons you may want to Ignore rather than Report:- someone's behaviour or chatting in the in the game may only be irritating, annoying or argumentative.
- You may have fallen out with a farming friend.
- if you don't like someone and prefer not to see them.
- someone you hired that may be picking and choosing what they want to work rather than completing the entire job request, so you prefer not to hire them again by mistake.
- if you you've hired someone on many occasions and they have not been able to complete your work and you're unable to find out what the problem may be, so you prefer not to hire them again by mistake.
Remember there are always new farmers learning the game needing help, they may not know how to communicate with you or how to use the bigger tools or how to get them back if they dropped the tool by mistake.
We all had to start from the beginning and seasoned farmers generally have a wealth of information to help new farmers know how to use tools that they don't own and may not know how to use yet or how to know that they have been hired for more then one job or more than one farm.
A farmer may have a temporary internet issue or an emergency so could not finish or return to finish your work or let you know. This does not mean that they would normally do that.
Please try to consider those types of things before you decide to Ignore and Block a farmer.
These types of behaviour are NOT to be reported!
