BalloonBattle05 04/17/23 10:42:39 PM #373 | Error1355 posted... holy shit your still going? i think i figured out why a blocking feature was added to combat severe harassment. The mods here are bad at their job enough that Reddit users complain about them. https://www.reddit.com/r/gamefaqs/comments/jltm6l/the_moderators_on_the_gamefaqs_sight_suck/ as to why blocking on this site is more trouble, this site is similar to other internet forums such as Discord and YouTube where you see conversations happen in real time and not being able to see a blocked message can mean you miss important context in the middle of what's actually being talked about. Other sites such as Facebook and Twitter mostly have you chat with friends instead of internet users and you dont really have as much of a conversation on this site as you do here. If an internet troll tries to derail your thread, you can just set your settings to private which isnt possible on gamefaqs. In general, GameFAQs block system is a more bad than good idea and we have it because the mods are bad enough at their jobs that trolls are capable of getting away with severe stalking/harassment and thread derailing easily. What GameFAQs really should do is have high entry requirements so its harder or more risky to ban evade. --- If locking online play behind a paywall with irrelevant games is a service then bricking your phone and not removing the brick without a fee is also a service. |

BalloonBattle05 04/17/23 6:35:58 PM #366 | Tmaster148 posted... Here's the thing, if they start trolling other people those other people can mark the posts and they can still get modded. One person deciding they are tired of dealing with a specific user that lead them to block the user is not some "get out of jail free" card trolls can use. difference is without blocking you will ALWAYS be able to mark a post while now, someone can block you from marking their post. they can still get modded, but the thread derailing is apparently so bad that the ignore feature wasnt enough to stop trolls, people wanted blocking to deal with them. Which means mods are insufficient enough at their jobs. Guests are also unable to put trolls on their ignore list, while being is guest is better at reading posts because this way no one can block you --- If locking online play behind a paywall with irrelevant games is a service then bricking your phone and not removing the brick without a fee is also a service. |

BalloonBattle05 04/17/23 5:48:21 PM #357 | Malcrasternus posted... While I personally don't use the block or even ignore features here I feel they're still good tools to have. I'm still not seeing any solid arguments on how these tools harm more than help, besides maybe hindering the flow of some topics. as someone said in this thread https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/7-site-suggestions/80052702 The block function makes no sense from a design perspective. It disincentives people from creating an account, especially from people who primarily care to read. As a guest user you are guaranteed all publicly accessible content. So for registered lurker users it does nothing but degrade the user experience with little benefit, since there is always that nagging thought of "Am I missing any content?" The logout trick doesn't work for boards with level reading requirements, but those boards are the exception rather than the norm. Even then, most have fairly low reading requirements so a lurker alt is all that is needed to get the full uncensored version of the board and an easy switch when you feel like posting. It makes sense to implement in a forum that allows you to forbid guest users from viewing posts, but not in the majority of gamefaqs. and as that thread said, one way people abuse it is locking others out of their topics who are showing up the lies the TC is telling. So it becomes a way for trolls to lock out anti trolls who expose them. --- If locking online play behind a paywall with irrelevant games is a service then bricking your phone and not removing the brick without a fee is also a service. |

The solution is stronger entry requirements Tmaster148 posted... We get multiple posts any time something major happens on CE, because multiple people start creating the topic around the same time and don't realize that someone else is already making it. the blocking wasnt this, it was someone already made a topic before you made yours, you saw it and decided to make a new one if this was unintentional, we can simply lock every topic except one no problem. this is a smaller problem, but its one of MANY reasons why we shouldnt have blocking. --- If locking online play behind a paywall with irrelevant games is a service then bricking your phone and not removing the brick without a fee is also a service. |

So, what are the dozens of issues? encourages trolls to block people who call them out (which means they cannot be reported as easily and in turn means everyone else has to deal with them), makes topics harder to follow if there are missing posts, this can easily result in people repeating info because people are blocking them from seeing the previous posts, this can also easily result in topics being repeated instead of everyone posting in the same topic, or people having to waste time asking if this point has been mentioned before in the topic, Baha05 mentioned instance of bullying using blocking, this feature overall encourages less signing up so as guest you can just browse around without people blocking you, or using read only accounts so people wont know your username for blocking purposes. People with old accounts are more likely to ditch them because petty people will block these accounts from reading posts, and as a result they will be more likely to make throwaway accounts. the strongest positives of blocking are preventing people from excessively stalking, harassing and trolling you, all blocking does is putting a bandaid on the solution instead of outright fixing it. This implies that there should be stronger moderation and entry requirements as RedWhiteBlue mentioned earlier instead of a feature that people will abuse to shut down others just for having different opinions (which ruins the ENTIRE POINT of a message board where you DISCUSS with people). --- If locking online play behind a paywall with irrelevant games is a service then bricking your phone and not removing the brick without a fee is also a service. |

Yes I read through that couple year old topic with a few people who don't like the block feature in general, I'd love to know what the supposed dozens of issues are beyond your weird insistence that it makes people immune to moderation. while it is unlikely anyone would ever do this, other people even mods could just see the tos violation post and not report because they agree with the poster. Only the person being blocked would want to report the post. as to why the blocking feature is an issue, people have used it to be in echo chambers, which in exchange it makes topics hard to follow and makes it more likely that people will repeat a point or topic because they cant see the previous post that they were blocked from, it promotes being guest more because this way no one can block you from reading their topics and posts, (but as a double edged sword, guests cannot use the ignore feature to hide posts), other users have said it promotes bullying where you cant see the posts of your bullies, it doesnt really deter trolls of stalkers/harassers from being a problem on the site and you blocking them just means other people have to deal with the trolls. it shouldnt necessarily be removed, but it should be changed so that it can address its intended purpose much better while not ruining the experience of users enough that them reading posts while logged out is overall better. --- If locking online play behind a paywall with irrelevant games is a service then bricking your phone and not removing the brick without a fee is also a service. |
