+# MSC4294 Ignore and mass ignore invites
+
+## Proposal
+
+### Introduction 
+
+Invite spam is getting more problematic and clients have no good way to handle massive invite spamming without server support.
+
+**Ignoring** users seem to help this but it has two serious problems:
+
+- completely ignoring users make them completely disappear for the user, and if the user is also a moderator/adminstrator it makes impossible to detect and handle further abuse
+- servers are not _required_ to clean up [invites] after ignored users (by the spec).
+
+**Rejecting ignores** also creates problem for clients:
+
+- Invite rejections are _room based_, so when a user is invited to massive amount of rooms by `spammer` then rejections require numerous `leave` API calls
+- API calls are rate limited so massive rejections may be impossible without seriously disturbing user communication
+- There are no mass invite rejection feature based on `sender`
+
+This proposal suggests a separate ignore for invites, and proposes compulsory server cleanup of invites, giving one solution for all of the listed problems.
+
+### Proposed solution
+
+Ignores are currently handled by `m.ignored_user_list` (`account_data` [APIs](https://spec.matrix.org/v1.14/client-server-api/#put_matrixclientv3useruseridaccount_datatype)).
+
+Current spec only handles `ignored_users` list.
+
+I propose to have it extended by **`ignored_inviters`** list the following way:
+
+- the type is `m.ignored_inviters_list`
+- it is a mapping of userId to empty object, similar to `ignored_users`
+- the limit of the amount of the entries shall follow the same guidelines as `ignored_users`
+
+#### Server behaviour
+
+- Following an update of the `m.ignored_user_list`, the sync API for all clients should immediately start ignoring (or un-ignoring) all invites from all the listed users.
+- Servers are **required** to reject all pending invites from all the ignored inviter users.
+- Servers could choose to provide a boilerplate `reason` for rejection (but see security considerations below)
+
+## Potential issues
+
+When the server doesn't support this feature it should give appropriate error to the client, and the client have to handle that.
+
+Clients should be aware of the success of the ignore somehow since they need a method to clear pending invited from the user UI. The method should be the same as for `ignored_users`.
+
+This proposal does not handle rejection of all future invites.
+
+This proposal does not handle rejection of future invites of various logical classification, like "invites from actors not sharing a room with the user", "invites from actors matching a pattern or regex", "invites from actors on a given server". These are often requested features but would make this proposal much more complex, which would slow down its acceptance. These could be covered in a later proposal.
+
+`ignored_users` and `ignored_inviters` may overlap. It seems to be logical to remove already completely ignored users from `ignored_inviters`, however this would cause loss of information, since when the user unignores someone then their invites would be automagically unignored as well. Servers **should not** deduplicate and let the clients decide how they handle this situation and what interface they provide to the users to handle this. Internally, servers should ignore processing `ignored_inviters` for already ignored users at all.
+
+## Alternatives
+
+Manual rejection, hitting rate limits, losing connection, spam invites piling up. Sadness.
+
+## Security considerations
+
+This function is fuctionally similar to `ignore_users`, any security consideration there may apply here.
+
+When a server autorejects invites on the user behalf it may choose to include a boilerplate `reason` for the rejection. However this would cause an unnecessary information leak towards the abuser (informing whether the server provides mass ignore or not), so choosing to have an absent `reason` may be prudent, this way it is indistinguishable from manual rejections. This proposal provides no way for the user to provide a `reason` field, which may or may not cause discomfort.
+
+## Unstable prefix
+
+This proposal use the already established `m.ignored_user_list` feature, extending its functionality.
