Chat block list.

Anybody know where the chat blocklist is stored?

I want to make a backup of that file before the update, and restore it afterwards (if possible) so I don't have to start blocking a bunch of old names again.

Edit.
Woohoo, I managed to post in the wrong section. Please move to Q&A if you please. Thanks.

I've always thought that when JM bans those oh so few amount of bots that they ban. The spam bots are included. Which is why after every inspection you have to re-block new spam bots.

So you don't really need all those names on the list if they already have been banned.

I'm guessing though :roll:

The spammers are indeed often banned, however I also keep quite an extensive list of obnoxious assholes chatblocked.
