Do you think there will ever make it that if you have blocked someone you can't see their posts and vice versa on forum as is in Chat? That would be very useful in my humble opinion but perhaps it has been considered as inappropriate for some reason and that's why they haven't done it before.

I imagine it gets confusing and complicated when the said post is replied to.

Could be a bit tricky with the reply and quote function, you'd need to hide any quoted replies too

Probably not, the amount of people I have blocked half the forum posts wouldn't make any sense

It would be great, though probably impossible to do as half of the threads wouldn't make sense.

Or if they could do something similar to discord, where messages in public channels from blocked users just show as “1 blocked message” and you choose whether to see it or not

Some of them don't make sense now.

I can see what you are all saying. Perhaps a seperate button to just block one or two on that particular thread and nothing to do with your block list. Probably not possible anyway but would be good as some are from time to time rather determined to spoil it for the many. Thanks for your replies. It was just a thought but I accept rather impractical

My understanding is from forums u are not supposed to reply to someone who has blocked u as seen to be getting round the block? So the very few I've blocked I don't respond to on forums? Maybe I'm wrong? But yes good idea to not see them x

Some people will respond to some and ignore others thread's and conversations, in a way it's kind of a block without the actual block and works for most on here I suppose.

I tend to avoid certain people's threads because I don't like the OP. If that's what you meant,

A different way of putting it, but more so in thread's people will just avoid conversing with people they don't get on with for one reason or other.

I don't see how it could be implemented. Your forum activity is separate from your profile and messaging. In the forums all you do is count to ten and move on

They could make it so you can see the comment but can’t see who posted it. Like what they do with UNLOS accounts.

You can reply to whoever you like as long as you're not asking them to unblock you.

Besides, you'd need to click on their profile first to know if you were blocked

Oh my, we do like that block button. We might never get to read a thread.

I think anyone should have access to the forum but maybe shouldn't be able to 'reply privately'.

On a forum you don’t necessarily know someone has blocked you if you have never interacted with them. The first you know is when you think oh I like that comment - who are they and discover you’re blocked. So not replying to someone in those circumstances would be a nightmare. I think ignore is a better way than block - you just put someone on ignore and their messages to you just go in the bin automatically. Then if they harass you in the forums the current system kicks in

I think if someone blocks you you cant relpy or interact with them - relpy… what a great word…
