I'm not sure what you're talking about as it relates to a block feature?
Are you telling me to just accept being bothered and annoyed by bothersome annoying people? that's not very good advice.
I have plenty of empathy, But like any reasonable person I hate trolls and i hate being gaslighted by people.
You can have empathy while also keeping toxic people out of your life.
This is why restraining orders exist. If you insist ... I'll take you into the future of your idea, the block feature is there. You will not see nor are able to read posts of any person you wanna block, yet other players not having used the block feature can see posts made by others you have blocked.
As soon as that blocked person posts other players in your thread respond and start discussions with that blocked person.
You are left out by your own block feature, left out of the ongoing discussion, not able to respond.
And now?

Which is one of the reason I've suggested that people you block not be able to see your threads either.
You can't see them, they can't see you.
Yes I'm blocking them from me.
But i'm also blocking myself, from them.
that's fine, if they wanted to interact with me they would have behaved better.

Having initially said I'm not in favor of this, I second what Spearmint30 already said. I may not be bothered by it but others are so I respect their decision to want to block others. As long as it's implemented in a way that it doesn't have any impact on the ones who get blocked I'm fine with it. Sure I can see the appeal in blocking people from accessing one's thread, but I think this will degrade user experience for some. Such power should remain with FMods only. At the beginning/end of the day it is '
Jagex/JMods wanna hear feedback of all walks of life whom take part in The RuneScape Community all playing RuneScape all being affected/effected by the decisions Jagex/JMods make.
This blocking feature will not live well because it tear The RuneScape Community apart once again on a different level. Social Engagement being fragmented once more.
FMods, in the past, have intervened in such cases which didn't go all to well.

And ... how will you accomplish this 'OffLine'?
What will the public on 'The Internet' see?

like 15 people even use this forum regularly, I don't think jagex cares at all what happens here.
like 3 guys makes up 70% of the posts here nowadays.
Maybe if they added a block feature and people could make posts without being baited and trolled all day, more people would use the forums in the first place. Abby Taylor, when catering your idea you only can apply that to threads you originally have made yourself, other players threads you have nothing to say about so you still have to come along with your opponent going through the same door.
