O.P. [Release] Busy Blocker
As per requested in this thread.

What it does:
When you set your WLM status as busy, it will automatically send a message(which can be changed) to and then block anyone who tries to talk to you. It will then unblock that contact after a certain amount of time (which can also be changed).

How to use:
First make sure the script is enabled in Plus Prefs. Then simply set your status as busy. You can customize the unblock delay and message sent to your contacts through the Options window (accesed by the Plus! icon in chat windows/contact list> Busy Blocker> Options).

Screenshot:

Any comments/suggestions appreciated :)

Nice job. This script might make your contacts think that you are angry with them, but that is the purpose of the ability to change the message right? Im downloading as i type..

RE: [Release] Busy Blocker
maybe have more than 1 message because i'd rather have "i'm busy, cant talk" then if they continue "stop talking or get blocked" and "you blew it" and block them until you come online/change status

Shouldn't be too hard to do :)

As above, should be simple to do :P

I might attempt both of the above tomorrow if i get the time.

And a suggestion by me :P, what do people think of an "exclude" list type thing? So you can add certain contacts to this list who it will not send the message to or block...

;p

I like that...

And I agree with that... but this is a very nice script... I have my MSN change me to busy when it's locked... and I'm not here... so this is nice to where it's like an away message, and yeah... Nice script :)

Hum... nice script but it would be great if we could choose the persons ignored by this script. And I would love a notification window (with history) that says all the persons this script blocked...
