The original discussion was about how the rule doesn't prevent users who actually want to circumvent it with alts from doing so, and (the important bit) it only hurts users who want to have a discussion with people other than the person who blocked them about something they said. This is the real world equivalent of the rule as it stands. (pic8.co)
But there's obviously something I don't know about. Something that no one could know about unless you said what it was, which you wont (and seriously I don't blame you). So this discussion will go nowhere and isn't worth continuing.

That’s incorrect as explained in the ToS, it’s the opposite.
If you use an alt to specifically target some users or game votes you’ll end up being slapped by the algorithm (your main account included)

You’re paranoid then, because there’s nothing untold.
The important part is and has always been, you're preventing well intentioned users from discussing posts/comments because some faggot got his fee fees hurt. You can block votes, block notifications, but WHY prevent discussion. That's always been my point.
I guess the only alternative now is to create a sub where users who are blocked by someone can link to the OP and discuss it with others there.

I love how you make it sound like a definitive thing when it’s not.
As mentioned in the announcement about the blocked user feature update, when you reach level 30, you can reply to users and comment in their posts.
