I've been playing this game for 8 years now and I've felt a need to blacklist maybe a dozen players during that time. After a few months, I take them back off my blacklist. There has only been one that I've had to add back to it. And it's not that they're a bad person. They're just extremely annoying with their emote spam during hunt trains. So if they start spamming during trains, I put them on my blacklist then take them back off later. Temporary problem has solution and stops being a problem.

That's not to say that there aren't players with legitimate reasons to keep certain players on their blacklists. There are psychos out there that focus on someone and don't let go. Those individuals are better on blacklists.

That is not your problem, though. Your problem is you look for reasons to be offended and outraged for petty reasons. You believe that others should do what you say for your convenience.

You are indeed a Karen even if you don't want to admit it.

Game advice: clear out your blacklist. Chances are good that 95% of those you've placed on it you'll never encounter again and 4 of the remaining 5% will turn out to be perfectly friendly people who might have been having a bad day when you decided to blacklist them. Repeat this at the start of every month if you continue to add players to it. Chances are good you'll discover that the number on your blacklist remains small and it's extremely rare that you need to re-add a specific player.

Life advice: learn to ignore the petty stuff. You're only stressing yourself out and stress is terrible for your health.
Yes, me being frustrated with the terrible GM policies means I'm looking for reasons to be offended and outraged. You couldn't be further from the mark. So let me give you a bit of advice as well, since we're doing psychological evaluations of each other now.

Nothing's ever going to get done just by thinking about it hard enough. If you want something done, or changed, you have to push for it. Ignorance is not always bliss. I imagine your life is a very happy one.
