To blacklist or not to blacklist

[QUOTE=Xakery;544252 I'm not one to hold grudges, [/QUOTE]

Wouldn't blacklisting someone be the very definition of holding a grudge? Don't get me wrong, you pay a monthly fee, same as all of us, so blacklist the hell out of whoever you want too. But, to me, if I had a falling out with someone, and went out of my way to NOT talk to them or hear what they have to say, thats grudge holding. Again, do what ever you want, I just saw that tidbit and couldn't help but chuckle a bit.

Seriously though, please don't b-list me lol

It's not just for situations where you have a falling out with someone, it's a bit hard to explain. Have you ever ran into someone so stupid that you thought "Damn, it would be nice to blank that person from my FFXIV life."?

If there were some good PvP and you could slaughter them to relieve some of the pressure then yeah I can understand putting up with it, but right now the only effective way to get em is by killing them off in your mind.

No, thats totally legit. There is definitly more than 1 reason to b-list someone. I just mean that if you are B-listing someone you deal with on a regular basis, that sort of fits into the grudge holding catagory. B-listing people that are annoying and have no idea your doing it is another matter altogether. I would sorta question though why someone would have a HUGE b-list only a year or so into playing.

Yeah I can see what you mean now, and it seems to me blisting in those situations is kinda reserved for people who think it's a huge insult to be blisted by someone (and they are usually sure to tell you and everyone else that you have been blisted).

Some of us have our blist on a hair trigger. I even go as far as to blist bad players (i.e., if I see a thaum level 50 with no materia and/or VIT rings) pre-emptively, that way I never have to deal with them lol.

That is kind of sad Brig...
