When this new forum was released to replace the original forums, one feature I liked was the 'Block Poster' button. What I am noticing is that there is some sort of cap on the number of people you can have blocked. Once you hit the cap, any new blocks, unblock people you already had set to block.

i.e. Cap is 1000 blocks and poster number 1001 you block, thus unblocks poster number 1. 1002 unblocks the original block 2.

Am I imagining things or is this how the block feature works? What?

Have more than 1000 people really offended/annoyed you that much to have had to block them?

I personally dont have anyone blocked.

What is love? Baby, dont block me. Dont block me, no more.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I'm also missing the adult diapers that were promised for reaching 1000 blocks. Can someone please look into this? Thank you.

Ask all the folk who have blocked you, what the cap is and how it worksSmile

While theoretically you should be able to ignore as many morons as you like on the forums, I imagine this is an issue of saving server space. What if everyone blocked several hundred thousand morons. A solution may be to lump the morons into certain broad categories the nature of which I cannot at this time imagine as morons come in so many stripes. You could then block or even subscribe to certain blocks of morons.

You don't have to hate some players for them to earn the Block, like known tradehub spambots. Kinda like blocking emails from spammers..

I think she's tricking us. I don't even think 1000 people post regularly on this forum, do they?

Oh god.

It's not about hate, it's about blocking dumb people, trolls and just ones who is never constructive or generally brings no value.
Having blocked those you save a lot of time by not reading all the garbage. Since I don't want to remember every name I just block them.

I'm also wondering if there's a limit.

Whatever.

Or hate people on a more regular and cyclical basis. Sooner or later, we can ALL be on your 'Blocked' list!

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.
