@treebee Said The block person feature is so cool, i want one in real life
The block feature IMO is maybe cool but from a communication point of view a failure. Once you block a person the only thing you do is to "mutilate" yourself. Not seeing or hearing what another person has to say may help to avoid your (often justified) reaction. But it does not hamper the person that induced you to use this extreme measure, to continue in the same way with other (new and old members).
From this point of view I belief that we could see here a call for a "different" moderation. If a moderator would "speak" maybe more often with people showing an aggressive or bullying behavior (especially posts that are not taking position on content or positions expressed by the other but have the mere intention of "humiliating" his person) maybe we would avoid he necessity of a thread like this. And "punching" is not what I speak about. When you "punch" IMHO it is already late and the whole thing has gone in a totally wrong direction.
