    Umm... They can't send you tells? And it does mute them from all chat channels.

    Which is what I posted in the second sentence. The point is, it's not a benefit. You should have the option to do this, or not.

    And the option to mute them from your channels is to add them to your blacklist. Just like how, on social media, you would set them to your “Ignore” list, or “Block” list. The feature is functioning as intended there. And the blacklisted player being unable to send you tells is a default setting—they can send them to you all day long, but they’re muted/blocked from your chat so you’ll never see them.

    The option to do a sweeping mute of a single person is something only GMs have. I can already see the abuse potential if players had the power to mute/silence a player in-game just because they don’t want them spamming other people’s chats with trash talk.

    Which doesn't change the fact that it's still useless. It provides no benefit to a blacklisting player.

    That’s a subjective measure.

    The people on my blacklist don’t show up in my chat, their tells do not show up for me, and they can’t join any Party Finder parties that I have made or am in, so I feel like it’s working as intended for me. If they end up in a DF group with me, well I don’t really care. I’ve been there before, and the person actually wasn’t talking any crap about me. Truth be told, they probably didn’t even remember who I was, nor know why I had them blacklisted in the first place.

    Players cannot have the GM power to outright mute a player across everyone’s chat. It would take less than 30 seconds for that kind of power to be abused.

    You misunderstand the OP. Have an option to keep it like it is regarding chat blocking, or allow players to turn that part off.
