noob question: is there a way to know if you're being ignored?
reddit / irc

Not really, no. You can send a CTCP ping and see if the user's client
responds, but that's not a guarantee one way or the other, because the
user's client may ignore all CTCP, or it may allow CTCP but ignore
your other messages.

If they don't respond then you're being ignored. Either technically
through the software or literally by not responding to you.

Why do you care which it is when the result is the same?

there could be the case where I just send one message, no response,
but not sure if this is intentional. So before trying one more time, I
would like to check if I'm ignored through the software. That would be
an indication.
