"Enhanced Blacklist Functionality" Safety Concerns

[LuciferNacht]

snip " I'd no longer have felt safe playing the game and I know I'm not alone in that."

My unpopular opinion here is simply going to be, if your "safety" is compromised by an invisible actor moving around your character in a virtual game - Get Help. You need therapy.

I'm not even trying to be edgy, you are not exhibiting a normal response to a non action in a virtual world. A black listed character under the new system means they cannot interact with you in a meaningful way, if you're going to be sitting there like "omg, are they next to me right now" that says so much about you. To the point where you rather use the lesser tool and mute them instead and watch them harass you? Nah. You want to live in your victimhood. Their erasure from the game and the fact you can hide yourself from them on the lodestone means their power has been stripped away. All the power they have left is in your head and you're handing it to them on a silver platter.

You've emotionally invested too much into this and you're now inventing harassment when you will no longer be able to see the player or see their chat.

I don't even care if this is the "how dare you it's 2024, it's mean to say anything against the victim, you victim blaming monster".

Yeah ok, get therapy and develop healthy coping skills.

Also peeps can hurl insults and reply ad nauseum. I just came to leave this one post. If you feel like OP, you also need to go get a therapist and put your stalkers on the actual blacklist.

Anyway that aside,

SE do the friendslist next. That needs a complete revamp, if I remove a friend, it should be removed from their list as well. Also let us friend our alts.

I disagree.

Pretty much. They can't make new alts to harass with and their entire account has been terminated from their former victim's view. All they can do is impotently sit behind their screen while no one notices or cares. It's similar to parasocial losers sending messages to their favorite content creator that will never be read. LMAO
