The block functions sets a dire censorship precedent for Poal. (See full discussion HERE).

I propose that instead of outright blocking individual users, their replies and conversations are INSTEAD automatically collapsed so that their speech is not infringed upon by allowing the choice to see it, and that those blocking them don't have to see it if they choose not to.

In this way, both parties get what they want.

I have one user blocked. His shit still shows up collapsed, automatically. Did something change?

I uncollapsed 1 of his comments to see if I could read it. He called me "fat" which only accurately describes my pecker. Idk how he would know?

Maybe something changed, because you literally can't even reply if you're blocked.

Shit, must have. If there's even a 1% chance something of value is lost, I agree it's a bad policy.

All it takes it 1% to tilt a level world into chaos.
