Blocking Entire Group bug by Taulin on 10-01-2004 at 12:02 PM

ive been wondering for a while why when i try to block all the contacts in a particular group it would fail to block them, now i know why

i have two particular groups one called Friends the other Friends Ragnamart, if i try to block everyone in Friends Ragnamart using the Block Contacts In Group feature it blocks all the contacts in Friends instead (obviously because its the same name up to the space)

versions are:
Windows Version: Windows 2000, 5.00.2195
Messenger Client Version: 6.2.0137
Messenger Plus! Version: 3.20.0100

Hey, I also have that, and I know of 2 people who have it also. I was testing this the other day but completely forgot about it, damn :-/ sorry :$

[03:20] <CookieRevised> if 2 groups are named in a certain way and you block the second group with the rightclick menu, then the first group is blocked instead, same with unblocking
[03:22] <CookieRevised> problem is, it could be a server glitch, but I can't test that without plus! because it is that that does the groupblocking :/
[03:23] <CookieRevised> swapping the names of the groups and it works fine :-/
[03:39] <CookieRevised> djeezes this is a strange bug
[03:40] <CookieRevised> I even deleted the groups and created new ones (with the same names)... still the bug is there.... hmmmm... Plus?...
[03:41] <CookieRevised> and guess what the names of the groups are :D
[03:41] <CookieRevised> "messenger plus!" and "messenger plus! - ned"
[03:41] <CookieRevised> and when I groupblock "messenger plus! - ned", "messenger plus!" is blocked instead
[03:41] <CookieRevised> ned = nederlands
[03:41] <CookieRevised> or dutch in english
[03:42] <CookieRevised> wtbw: well, when you changed the names to something unrelated, it works
