How do I stop clicking on other players?

This has been driving me nuts...

In dungeons and skirmishes when I try to loot I keep instead ending up with a pop up covering my screen asking me to invite, inspect, vote kick, etc my teammates...

If I was moving at the time, I am locked into running until I escape out of that screen...

Is there a way to prevent this? A way to get player selection off of the interests/select functions?

    the 3rd thing in the tutorial Private Wilfred taught you was to aim the reticle (or crosshair) at objects you want to interact with. Notice how the shape/color changes when you aim at different things. (Red:target - Blue:Ally - yellow/gear: interact-able object). If you press F before the color/shape changes then it will interact with whatever you aimed at, i think the reticle changes with a server-sided response thats why it could lag a bit after aiming.

    Anyway a way to avoid aiming at other players while interacting with objects is by aiming into the sky. Wait what ? yes, aim your crosshair as if you are looking at the ceiling.

    Use /bind key ++interact

    This will bypass people and interact with objects. It's really useful in Caer Konig to get into IWP and DV.

    Thanks for the key bind tip.
    I click F as I run over things to loot and interact while moving and not falling behind the group. The aiming reticle is usually over my character so I don't tend to see it and if I aim at the sky my view looks to the sky and I will end up running off a ledge or into the next pull.

    But a key bind is perfect.

    I might recommend

    /bind key "interactIncludeVolume"

    Instead. This has a small, added benefit of being able to interact with things if they happen to get stuck in a wall. Like that one guard during the siege event. Warning, though: Don't use these in place of the normal interact button. You can't raise downed teammates with them.

    I hate paying taxes! Why must I pay thousands of dollars in taxes when everything I buy is taxed anyways!
