Ignoring people should make their threads not display.

[Shironeko_Narunyan]

Agreed, broadcasting that you've just blocked or ignored someone is a petty move. Just because you've done that doesn't mean that you've won an argument, it's literally throwing your hands up in defeat!

Doesn't change the fact that blocking someone should make them disappear from whatever you're looking at, and vice versa.
This isn't exclusive to the forums, the game has very lacklustre stalking protection, too.

Agreed. Unfortunately, this is how VBulletin worked for as long as I remember, so I doubt it's going to change. Ignore is effectively useless on it.

At least someone gets it.

Would be nice but sadly that's not going to happen. I have most trolls on ignore and not having to see their troll attempts would be nice.

If putting trolls on ignore hid their threads, we'd lose half of the first page of GD.

We sure would and fast.

The Ignore function on the forums is about as useless as the Blacklist is in game. I desperately wish they'd fix both, but something tells me we're likely to see a Blacklist change in-game before we ever see any improvements to these ancient forums.

And thats bad , because??


Regardless of the few comments about a person announcing they blocked someone . The point stands . This game and its community section of the dev team has a pitiful attitude towards players having proper control over removing annoyance from their playtime experience because of the terrible , almost useless blacklist/block functions.



When we blacklist somebody , regardless of the reason , we should not be queued together. The game should refuse it if we have blocked people and the game decides to match make us for a roulette.



Block tools should bock , and hide messages , threads , in game duty finder matchmaking from meeting each other again once blocked . Other MMOs have done it for years . Its shocking how little they care about actually giving players the control they deserve to stop bad persons from ruining their playtime even after the fact.


We would not mind it if once we reported people that are inexcusably rude/threatening / racist / creepy/stalky and well known for repeated trolling/ bating , they were actually dealt with like thy deal with people with such ferocity for being annoyed by said trolls /bad attitudes that fester in our duty groups sometimes and we get tired and sometimes get angry in our responses to their shiftiness and we get a temp ban for being angry at them.


If SQE actually had the balls to deal with the bads in the community we wouldn't mind so much that the block functions are useless , but I guess they know to spend a lot on SQE cash shop Phantasia's and clothing so SQE let them stay regardless of their awful social conduct in ff14.

I agree how dumb it is, that I ignore someone, but I still see their posts when someone else is quoting them. They're also unaware that they're being ignored.
