I would absolutely love it if you could force a person to be unable to see your posts.

Disallow them from interacting with you, as just blocking their posts is insufficient. If I can block a person but they can still try to interact with me whether I can see it or not defeats the point.

Naw it's a fantastic idea. It'll save all the pedantic dipshittery.

Mutual block is a better description. If I block you, I should be blocked by you too. This is how it works in game. If I blist you, I can't communicate with you, it by default blacklisted me from you when I add you to my blacklist.

So, say a person has me blocked, the site should block the person by default on my end. It should stop their quotes too, but that's probably too much effort.

The site had dual blocking for awhile, it was disabled because it didn't work properly. I believe about 6 years ago.

how do they still communicate with you? isn't the only way for a blacklisted person to still communicate with you if someone else quotes their post? blacklisting isn't going to prevent it but in that case the go to strat is to play the harassment card so the mods hand out topic bans.

also i'm afraid the ppl you have beef with probably have a endless supply of sock accounts so blacklisting them isn't a permanent solution anyway.

They'll likely see someone quoting you at some point and reply to it, or read/reply from a sock.

Some of the posters here are pretty sad people.

this is a thing on gamefaqs boards. theres ignore which lets you not see someone elses posts, and theres blocking which also makes them unable to see your posts

I wish there was a way to block everyone from seeing Eiryl's shitposts.

Two things.

First, I did add dual block, and what people did with it was block whoever they were about to talk a bunch of ***about. I got rid of it for a reason.

Secondly, the site already has a system where people can't see your posts.

Just stop being so damn sensitive. Nobody should have to go add a bunch of features because someone is so soft, another persons words hurt them. Not only is ignoring effective, but 9 times out of 10 it makes the other person that much more annoyed. Win win.
That wasn't expressed towards any specific person. Just a generalization.

Remember when Asura.Eiryl just wanted everyone to go away?

Hey, love the *** outta that. Please, add Gorpa-Masorpa, kthx

.... and home points.... and survival guides, and the AH,
basically, can you make all the *** disappear for me, much love.

-THE- single most obnoxious thing is being afk near an NPC, other ***may come close but that's the worst.

Well other people just gotta *** everything up like always. You could've just suspended those people and left it the right way though.

The people you block can just incognito window away from their session and see all your posts anyway. A quick copypasta of your post into a quote tag allows blocked users to easily side-step the feature.

In order for this kinda stuff to be meaningful, the whole forum would need to be behind an auth wall.

I mean sure. But I assume it's annoying to other people who see it too, but like always, *** everyone else, am I right.

They're blocked after today so it's only you that have to see it from now on. Please enjoy it.

we should just make it so if anyone touches someones block button no one can read that persons ***anymore.

or maybe we should just let the individual decide who's ***they want to read or not, i don't know.

He *IS* a pretty miserable person. In an odd way I feel sorry for him. I can't imagine how one drums up the energy to get though a day, being as salty, and miserable, as they are.

D'aww that's sweet.

But we've gotten an answer of *** everyone so there's no point continuing. Officially washed my hands of it.
