Unable to manually add to blacklist

[Jijifli]

I don't think it's a bug as much as an effect of the recent changes. They are likely going to be adjusting it in the expansion release if anything

... That's still a bug. If it isn't working as intended, then it's a bug.

It's probably working as intended currently. That's what I'm saying. Being held back by limitations do to the new world visit and not working correctly at all are different things.

I'm unsure not being able to add someone to bl by name, for example, "/blacklist add "First Last@Server" is working as intended. Considering that it works for whispering that way just fine.

It's working as intended. It's unfortunate that the intended behavior is wrong, though.

When they were preparing for the launch of the world visit system, they removed the ability to target players by name for all commands except /tell. Only /tell accepts typed names as targets now, and even when sending a tell to someone on your own server you still have to include @World. Other slash commands can only take target tags. If you cannot see or target the other character model, you must use menus. This in itself would not be absolutely horrible, except that even when you can see the person's name in a list like /search, the blist command is often not included in the menu.

The system needs improvements.

This is still how it works and it needs to be fixed this needs to be updated I should not have to target people, some people use 3rd party tools and know when you target them

The implementation decision was still wrong, and not being able to type people's names to /blist them is still stupid.

However, you can work around having to target them by using a mouseover tag:

/blist add <mo>

with your cursor over their character model. Mouseover is a valid target for text commands, and you won't actually have to select the other character.
