Confirm.

And I fully expect people to come into this topic and say that about me, but they would be justified in doing so.

i don't block anyone. i rarely ignore posters - they need to be truly insufferable. allowing myself to see posts from people who generally suck forces me to contain myself and not react to things i disagree with. it's good practice for life.

Just do it, its so liberating both ways. If someone annoys you, erase them from your life, and if you annoy someone, they dont need to see you anymore either. Its perfect.

this isn't how the real world works most of the time. learning how to deal with and ignore shit you dont like is a valuable life skill -- you can't always just go hide in a safe space

C. I used to ignore a few people before blocking became a thing, but I stopped because it annoys me to see people responding to people to posts I can't see.

I started tagging people instead of blocking them.

Real life doesnt have a ToS either, GameFAQs isnt meant to reflect real life. In real life wed be able to say exactly what we want to these people, where here we cant so you might as well optimize your GameFAQs experience.

I only block someone if they've annoyed me enough to put them on Ignore but then they keep @ ing me (say what you will about how obnoxious I am, I don't @ people), or if it's a Tails alt and they're following me (happened twice last year), because that's just gross.

I assume blocking just makes topics look more garbled and difficult to follow. It's actually easier to see a username and go "Oh well look who it is." which is less vague than an empty space that could be any of your super serious GameFAQs enemies.
I should tag people but for some reason I just don't. I guess I'm not invested enough.

So? If the option is there, use it or don't. You can't 'block' people in real life, but you can choose to walk away and not put up with their bullshit.

I rarely block, but I'm comfortable ignoring users who never bring anything positive or worthwhile to the table.

Not to mention in real life, people are less likely to say some fucked up shit. Because real life carries the risk of being punched in the face. All I'll say is that I've been told to off myself 0 times IRL. Not the same for online.

Blocking kind of ruins the fun of CE, given that it's just a sea of nonsense to begin with. The only reason I don't enjoy being blocked by people is because it reduces the amount of "quality" CE posting I get to see.

Rebel is hard to block and it's pointless because he gets banned within a week and then just makes a new account. His name scheme is easy to recognize and he advertises his identity in his sig, but still... blocking him woukd be more trouble than it's worth.

Ignore = You no longer see their posts.

Block = You no longer see their posts, they no longer see your posts, and they can no longer post in your topics.
