Help
I recently played a league match in a public club. We had banned chat from Kibs but were still getting chat from other members of the club who were chatting to "the club".
I know it's possible to ban all chat but this would lose the ability to chat to the people at the table.
My suggestion is that it should be made possible to exclude all chat apart from the other 3 people at the table. Could this be done?

I like this idea also. It would also help if you are at a teaching table, where the teacher is posting prepared scripts to the table that then get fouled up with announcements that a viewgraph session is starting. - Although for that, you would want to enable kibber chat but disable chat from anywhere outside the table, which is a slightly different request I guess.

probably not what you want to hear BUT, a public club is a public club, if you do not want club chat, open a room in main bridge club,

I have heard kibs complaining about chat at tables. I have heard players complaining about chat in a tournament. Could our brilliant programmers allow an option to "Ignore Table Chat" or to "Ignore Public Chat at Tournament (except of course from TD)"?
The former could help the kibs in Vugraph who just want to watch and not listen to the commentators, too.

The closest thing we have is the 'ignore all chat' option. in a vug context you could mark the chatters as enemies for the session, that would have much the same effect
