You notice the only ones complaining are heavily into site drama. :( it's hard to even notice if you're just a, regular user.

I'd like to remind everyone there is a "block user" and a "block sub" button under every post and every comment. Please use them! You can unblock users by going to your user preferences and clicking the "blocked" tab, or unblock subs by going to that sub directly and hitting "unblock sub" under any post

Yeah, but I don't believe in blocking users. When they spew bullshit someone's got to be there to tell the rest of the site that it's bullshit. When you block them you take yourself out of the loop.

I guess, but there's also something to be said about not letting bullies kick sand in your eyes for fun

What if he is the bully?

On this I agree. Block as it is remains a shitty function.

It could be made better if people were made aware they'd been blocked and/or or an indicator showed something was blocked, on the chance they're curious to see. Naturally there are many more features that could make it much more viable.
