What do you do with a Blacklist full?

I shame the Futa rp'ers in Shout chat to get them to blacklist me of course.

Kinda arbitrary though?, ERPers don’t tend to do it in public and is not an indicator of a bad player or a toxic person. Sure it may be a bit weird to most people, but eh, I don’t see them doing no harm and to each their own. Even as an RPer who isn’t a part of the ERP community this isn’t a problem I run into, so I expect even less of a problem for everybody else. Maybe I’ve only ran into it once in the many years I’ve played this game, where somebody was publically ERPing.

If you fill 200 names in your blacklist so fast, maybe the problem isn't the blacklist.

Oh please... Tryhards responding with "The problem's not the blacklist but you" are not discussing in any shape and manner. They are simply obnoxious and probably proud of their oh-so witty/funny/snarky comment.

Comments like yours are of less help than people pointing out that the issue may not be limited space of the blacklist. Your comment appears to have no other purpose than to rile people up, to be confrontational.

I don't have 200 people on my blacklist. Was my OP not clear on that? Or maybe I worded things that alluded that I did, to which I do not. And for that, I apologize.

I came up with this theory as I watched the chat while waiting for FATES as well as NN. I am not speaking from a subjective POV either, people were posting ToS breaking comments. What people find offensive is subjective, yes. But I'm not referring to snark that can be taken either way. I am talking about actually messed up things that while I would like to parrot, I'd prefer to avoid a ban.

And thus, I sought answers in game. I got none. What I'm seeing is some chain reaction from comment to comment that have given me some crazed mentality to others and my words taken the wrong way.

[Edit] Inb4 that's proof of me being too sensitive. Look up yonder for the whole discussion on mental illness.

I usually leave NN at first opportunity. I know on Siren, it's basically a clique of mentors who have a gaggle of sycophants. Not much help happens in the NN on Siren. I've heard much the same about most other worlds' NN.

As for thinking you have a crazed mentality, I personally would not say that. I think your approach isn't the best one, but I don't think you're crazy or unbalanced (at least no more so than the rest of us :p ). That's why my advice included considering perspective as something to change.

If your blacklist is full, learn to get along with other people better.

You do not need apologize.

The one-liner I gave is meant for something much long to say: if you (not "you", let's say "someone") find 200 names in the black list too few, the problem is to be searched elsewhere than the length of a list. Do really someone had to deal with so much people he don't want be sure meet again anymore?
Then the approach is maybe not correct. Some behaviour is reportable to SE (so, no need of blacklist), some other is not, and here the black list helps him a bit.

If someone want blacklist all and everything player who /shout anything he deem inopportune but it is not rule-breaking, his best option is turn off shouts. Or, live in a community and let them pass. If they are not bad things towards him, let them pass.

If I don't like jogging, I cannot walk in a park and tell everyone who does to stop.

And if someone still want keep on his crusade against all and everything he don't like and he fills the 200 spots, he still can delete the old names to make room for the new ones.

The problem lies with the fact its just people on alts pretending to be RP'ers to Troll. Like they make a stereotypical character (or what they think the FFXIV rp'ers RP) and do it to troll.
