The person I want to block is a potential roommate for the coming year. I'll delete her eventually, if we don't end up rooming together, but until then that's a no-go.
but I don't know how you do the whole going offline to a certain list bit. I know how to not display certain lists in chat, but I don't see where the option to block a certain list is.
in the chat window directly across from the list title, there's a little green button. when you scroll over it, it says "go offline." click that and it should do the trick. i'm not 100% sure that will block her from being able to IM you, but you'll at least appear offline.
i would also very much like to know this
just delete them as a contact
Can't.

then why do you want to block her on chat?
a lot of people, friends or no, are just a pain to talk to though
I don't want to have to chat to her.
I'd prefer not to have her as a roommate; I just might not have much choice if I can't find anyone better.
i think
if you add her to a certain list of friends on facebook, you can always make yourself appear offline to that list. hope this helps!
this is true
Where?
It's not under privacy settings.
mmkay
in facebook chat, go to "friend lists" then create a new list for this girl and whoever else you don't want to see you online.
then, once you drag them into the list or click edit and do it from there, you can go offline to that list. hope i explained that clearly!
I know how to do lists
