the only people I block are the ones who post unmarked spoilers and shit
Some are really bad...the topic title itself is the spoiler so just looked at the board for the game, you'll see it. Or they'll claim the topic is on one thing, then BAM! massive spoilers completely unrelated to the topic title in the opening post.

The people who post stupid or offensive shit I never block. They need to have people refute them, last thing I'd want is to let their crap go unopposed.

Only ignore. I have two trolls that do nothing but stir trouble and Full Throttle / mrduckbear because I don't really care for the 'news' topics he was posting before I used the ignore feature. I know they also do the occasional normal posting, but not so much that I'd put up with their usual topics. Sorry dude.

I dont block anyone in this site. I prefer to just flag the absolutely egregious posters who are posting threats or intentional spoilers or whatever and then laugh my ass off when they get banned.

I do block people on PSN who send me Im a Nigerian prince or I dont know you and I want to be your girlfriend scams though.

Oh, they'll never change their mind on things.
It's more for the sake of third parties who may stumble upon a topic, see the bs posted, and no one opposing that poster, and thinking that it's an acceptable statement or that the board agrees w/ him.

Admittedly on a board where the topics are deleted eventually like PotD, it's more futile an effort than on other message boards.

I've never met a troll successful enough to use ignore. That's like saying 'you win' and I enjoy bashing them anyway. If you mean ads then yes I have everything blocked. Never whitelist. If I find a way to block their whitelist begging I'll stop that too. If I wanted to be advertised to I'd do something else.

Spoilers mean nothing for me. I don't watch movies and games are more for the gameplay.

In this case blocking someone also forces them to block you. If they enjoyed your content or took pride in not blocking anyone your act actually diminished their enjoyment.

I didn't even know how to do it until last week or so.

Haven't blocked anyone, though I'm not opposed to the idea. I mostly only ignore blatant gimmick accounts and Duckbear.

I have a few people ignored, in addition to blocking some chronic harassers. A few somehow got off my block list which I thought they had just been bypassing. It takes me a very long while to ignore somebody, but you've got to do a lot of shit to get on my block list.

On the other side of the coin, I will say that I've been blocked by most of the board's most notorious trolls and shitposters.

was tired of someone constantly quoting me soon after i posted in any topic (once waiting exactly an hour to post a screenshot of a post i edited seconds after posting...)

putting them on ignore didn't stop me from seeing them get quoted, or when my phone loaded the page as i was logged out

Rather than Ignore, I use tags to identify shitposters, morons, and other sorts who've demonstrated time and time again that the things they say aren't worth reading, let alone responding to, and I don't make enough topics for block to be worth it, but if I did, I'd definitely use it to keep undesirables out of my topics.

No. Usually I'll usually unhide hidden comments that get down voted on other sites. I don't feel the need to suppress anything unless it's bot spam, or seriously illegal.

like what is there to get mad about?

Ignore is fine if folk feel the need to use it however block disrupts the flow of the topic for me as I miss posts out not through my choice. Block is one of the worse features on this site and pointless when ignore is already a thing.
