This is something other games have that I do not understand why we don't have. If someone is causing issues in the gmae and I find them annoying, my only options are to turn off chat, kick them, or take an abandon. I think a much easier way is to just let us blacklist people while in-duty. It's kind of silly to me we can't already do it.
So many arguments I've seen would be handled if you could just do that. People arguing over sound effect macro spam, passive aggressive fights in chat during a duty between players, etc. We could just bypass those if you didn't have to exit any duty you're in to actually use the self-moderation features the game already provides.

might have something to do with complications of if you blacklist someone, you, in theory, never get grouped with them again.
might cause complications if its applied and you are already in a party with them in a duty
I could see issues arising with the code logic that could have unintended consequences -

I've done well over 10,000 duties on my main alone, nevermind alts, and never had these issues with people... normally just a silent run, too.
I've literally been matched with someone in a duty that I blacklisted 1 week prior. Can you imagine how awkward that is? It happens though.Quote:

Blacklist doesn't even work on duty-matchmaking. That is correct. You can still match with persons you blacklisted.
Blacklist only works on chats anyway so just turn off your chat for the duration of the duty (right click chat then 'hide') or just exit (type U then leave) -

No. Grow thicker skin.
