I never suggested anybody be able to block Jmods.

Jmods are staff and they don't actually interact with the community like normal people.
Jmods do not have the desire nor time to troll and bait and harass users.

Ok enough about jmods, what about fmods who get on ppl's nerves?

Should they be allowed to be ignored?

What about CM mods?

Just because they dont annoy you doesnt mean other ppl arent annoyed by them.

"just dont respond to ppl who you dont like."

I made it clear that I have no desire to let ignorant people flood my threads with ignorant and incorrect responses.

"I do it myself thus it can be done."

I told you why this is incorrect. Not everybody is equal or the same mentally. Some people can paint and others can't.
Because YOU can do a thing does not mean every one can.

"No ones telling you to just deal with them"

You are. and you have done so many times, this is an outright lie.

Ok and just because you are incapable of doing something doesnt mean ppl should allow to shadowban others.

I mean everyone has a right to post in what ever thread is posted as long as they follow the rules.

Personal feeling should be left out of discussions.

" what about fmods who get on ppl's nerves?"

Funny enough F mods are a form of community self moderation, since they are players with extra power.
and you disagree with self moderation, funny.

Fmods are players, and subject to the same flaws as anybody else. currently we have methods to deal with fmods who abuse their power (forum help)

I think you should be able to block F mods.
but I also don't think F mods should even be a thing in the first place, but that's off topic.

I completely agree with Abby Taylor on this.

I've seen it in more than one pace where Person A makes a post/response and then Person B trails them around to only stir up controversy or harass them.

Of course, this isn't every forum, but the forums that it happens on seem to not have a sort of block function.


Having the right to block someone you feel harassed, bothered, or insulted by should be a basic ability on any forum. It doesn't harm them, in fact, it does no harm to anyone.

Plus, if you feel like it's a bad idea, then you probably enjoy being a nuisance to people who just want to have a conversation.

Another thing i thought of recently, what if said person you dislike is a f/jmod or a CM? In my opinion, J/F/LMods should not be ignorable on the forum for the simple fact that any one of them may be trying to alert you to some situation (be it a warning, lock message, etc) and those are things that must be seen.

So if you can deal with mods just fine whats stopping you from doing this with others?

What if fmods arent breaking any rules but just annoy you?

Its not like you can take that to FMR as they arent doing anything wrong.

Look up shadowbanning and youd see everything wrong with this.

Sorry, but i dont ever see this happening.

Well those are still ppl at the end of the day thus they can still annoy others.

So what are we supposed to do if we're getting annoyed by them?

If we cant ignore them are we supposed to just deal with it?
