Ill have to think about this for a while, thank you for discussing it with me and giving me your perspective

There's really not much to think about. This is a stupid idea that's going to make browsing these boards even more of a hassle than it already is, while yielding little to no actual benefit. Again, blocking the quotes? Sure. GameFAQs' prehistoric forum architecture probably doesn't allow for that, but that's a reasonable expansion of the block system to allow it to more completely fulfill its original purpose. Blocking the post that contains the quote, though? If anything, that gives particularly active posters that are feeling extra petty the ability to chase people they don't like off the board entirely, since they can make most of any topic literally unreadable for that person just by blocking them and being quoted often. That's a far worse form of harassment than anything block might prevent.
