Over the years, I’ve blocked people for a number of reasons. By now my list has grown very large. Over half of the people on the list are gold spammers, typically with nonsensical names like lkajsdlkfjalk or whatever. I can pretty much tell automatically when I look at the list why I blocked those guys.

One or two people I’ve blocked that I’ve known a while in game. I remember why I blocked them as well.

However, I’d like it if there was some kind of notation I could put in the “blocked” list that would give clues as to why I blocked someone. Examples of what I might put there would include things like:

“Map chat spam”
“Map chat troll”
“Very offensive map chat speech”
“Kicked me from fractal just before boss kill.”
“Cheated a guildmate out of 200 gold.”

I’ve had people on my list ask indirectly (through a third party) to be unblocked and I didn’t know if I should or not, because I blocked them 6 months ago and I don’t remember why. Were they borderline offensive? Or were they guilty of egregious offenses deserving of a permanent block.

Today I blocked a guy who thought it would be “epic” to kick everyone out of his squad for fun at a critical moment. He was also verbally abusive to people in his squad prior to that. I’d like to have a way to make a note of this sort of thing in the blocked list.

You can set the nicknames from your contact list of both friends and blocked people, by right-clicking their name in the list.

Regarding gold sellers – it’s safe to delete them off your ignore list once they go offline, because that offline is usually the permanent ban they get, and they never come back. Obviously, if you want to play it safe, keep them blocked, but I delete them after a short while just to keep the list one page long (if I can).

I once got messaged by a gold seller after coming back 5 months later. :o I guess he waited 5 months for me? When I came back I was in the guild hall.
