Even that dinosaur Warcraft has the function. You block someone for whatever reason, you never have to run anything with them ever again.
Do it.
Can’t enable it game-wide? Enable it for PvP.
Cull the trolls, cull the uncooperative, cull the ineffective as we go, let people find those they can work with.
Automated ranking alone is not enough.
Let players choose whom they ascend with.

There would have to be a limit and it would have to be temporary or some new or unskilled players would never get paired. You have to make it practical for them to want to implement it.
For example, why not limit it to one block that lasts for one hour. This is the best I can say they would even consider. Otherwise, players would just block all the low mmr players and add all the skilled ones.
(Your request technically means the more skilled players will rank up together but they need to squeeze time out of players for cash shop incentive which is why I offered my more realistic approach.)
Lucky Leaf, Ángël, Clergyman, Side Kick -Lets make Gw2 a better game
the community is too small. I’d love to see the numbers of people that regularly participate in ranked matches, but the number has to be extremely low in NA. and i feel like i’ve blocked at least 40% of the population lol
I’d rather see rewards for good sportsmanship and gameplay(voting system that adds 1 pip per “like”?) than exile people perceived as “weak”.
The last thing we need is a system where you’re able to punish people for any purpose such as, for example:
-Running a class not favored in the meta
-Making a single poor combat/tactical call
-Making a call only you, specifically, didn’t like based on an incorrect perception of what was happening
-Being [lower rating than you]
-Lag
-Disconnect
-Playing the hard counter to your class
And so on.
Plus, the pvp community is really kitten small. The most likely case of the game respecting this kind of idea is queue times will immediately triple as the game attempts to tiptoe around a few people blocking a few others.
Focus on uplifting good people, not allowing bad people to control the game. Even League of Legends picked up on this concept eventually.
I’d love it, but Overwatch tried and failed miserably. There was a guy who was the best widowmaker out there and he had to contact Blizzard support because he was sitting in que for hours and wanted to know why.
Turns out thousands of people blocked him because they were afraid of him. Eventually the system got a complete 180, and was changed to “prefer this player” which increases the chance of getting paired again.
If it didn’t work with Overwatch at its prime with millions of active players, it definitely won’t work in GW2.
You know how many toxic players would be on your team if it was a 5-man queue? Well if you’re any good at picking teammates, it would be 0. But yeah, queue times, death of game, on and on yeah I get it.
So you gotta pick, either you play with scrubs and trolls but have quicker matches, or you get a team together and play with pleasant people but go through whatever the doomsayers say you’ll go through. Can’t have the best of both worlds.

Anet should take measures to mute toxic players that ruin the fun for others with their nasty words and miserable attitudes, and unsportsmanship-like behavior. Mute them for a day for first offense, then a week, then a month, etc.
They should be muted in all game modes, from typing into any chat completely. Put a little icon near their name so people know they have been muted by anet.

Warcraft has about 100x the players this game does. You would just end up exploding your qeueu times most likely. And this could be abused so easily. I would just block everyone I knew sucked some of the toxic players are actually good I wouldn’t even block a lot of them. The bads though would all get blocked.
