It won't work because people can hop accounts or offline reading threads!

Thus solving nothing.
Plus threads arent supposed to be echo-chambers of yes men anyways.
If you dont like someone just dont read their posts.
Its not that hard.

What if somebody is really really really annoying, but they aren't breaking any major rules? Why should we have to put up with them.
The same reason you have to deal with those types IRL.
Sorry, but the forums arent only for you and the ppl you like.
Speak of the devil and he shall appear.
I think maybe you don't like this suggestion because you would be a prime candidate for it's use for a lot of people jk
in real life, when people harass you and bother you, you can actually go to your house where they aren't allowed inside.
You can also call the police if they follow you around and annoy you to much.
So in a way you're totally wrong, there are "block" options in the real world.
Nobody should have to put up with harassment.
on most websites there is a block function, and block evading to harass people is a bannable offense typically.
and regarding echo chambers and yes-men. who cares?
it is hard to ignore obnoxious people that constantly respond to every post ever made to tell them they are wrong.
Like I said in my original post, there are people who follow the rules but are annoying and not constructive despite this, lawful evil types.
Nearly every other website on the internet has a block / ignore feature for a reason.
I won't list which ones exactly, but several social media sites have 100 million+ active users a day, while the runescape forums are lucky to hit a peak with 25.
The real, and most obvious reason we don't have a block feature, is Jagex laziness and unwillingness to invest in the forums.
