Blacklist Feature Request

[Kranel_San]

As of right now, the only way to blacklist someone is to target them. It would be a lot more helpful to be able to type the person's name into the blacklist so you can blacklist them from anywhere and don't have to hunt them down!

It's not fair that you have to track down someone you are trying to avoid just to avoid them.

Only if it's reduced to 50 players. No way someone gets annoyed by 200 players unless they are the problem.
Also, some players are using the blacklist feature to block new players which is a no-no.

No there definitely is 200+ ppl worth blocking. Bots,phishers,people who spam things in chat, people who spam their fc ad every minute,ppl who harass or annoy you.The list goes on.

I don't know about you, but I've been playing since 2013, and I've encountered tens of thousands of players in that time. I certainly have over 50 in my blacklist, and it's not because of me. Some could be removed by now, but I can't remember why they're in there so I just play it safe. One time I got in a duty with someone I had blacklisted and after my partner read out what they were saying, I was reminded of why they were on my blacklist to begin with.

This. I blacklist bots when I report them so I don't report them twice. I blacklist anyone promoting things in shout, at least for a few days. Anyone that has huge macros, say offensive things, or use party/alliance chat as their personal chat room get put in there. After 8 years of playing, it fills up. Just because you don't care about things, that doesn't mean other people must be the problem for actually using the blacklist.
