Clearing extras list

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What would I need to change or remove from the addon's script to prevent 
the addon from removing guild members from the extras list after each EP 
award.

I would like to use the built in whisper function, but I don't want it to 
ever remove the extras from the standby list when EP is awarded.

I was thinking of removing this, but I am no expert in Luas.  I'm not sure if 
anything before or after those lines would need to be removed or if any of 
those 
lines would need to be included for the addon to run properly.

        L["%s is now removed from the award list"]:format(member),
        "WHISPER", nil, sender)
      EPGP:DeSelectMember(member) end
    senderMap[member] = nil
"

If you turn off the whispers for receiving awards, the people on standby will 
stay on
the list. You will need to tick each persons name in the EPGP list to add them
manually but they should not drop off the list after the awards.

I understand that, but as stated in my original post, I want to use the built 
in 
whisper to be added feature.  Thanks anyway, though.

I don't like the reset with each awarding as well. It's just annoying for the 
members and master looter to spam whispers every 10-30 minutes.
A better solution would be to check for the online status of each sender.
If the member is still online during an EP event, you can just keep him in the 
list or remove him otherwise. After leaving the raidgroup, you can wipe the 
list entirely.
I haven't found a API function for online checks yet, but you could probably 
use the whois functions. But there might be some query limitations from WoW 
itself.
