Stop abusing the block feature to silence players

Post by zinaf »

I want to address a serious issue affecting fair play and the community atmosphere.
Some players are using the block function not for protection, but as a tool to silence others in the chat. They insult or provoke someone, then block them so that the other player cannot respond while they continue writing messages freely.
This creates an unbalanced and unfair environment. One player dominates the conversation while the other is effectively silenced, which is disrespectful, authoritarian, and toxic. It makes players feel unwelcome and discouraged from participating.
The block feature should be a safety tool, not a weapon to harass and control others. I urge moderators and developers to review how this feature is used in games and prevent it from being abused.
We all want to enjoy the game — silencing and mocking other players undermines that experience.
Thank you for looking into this.
