… so the “trolls” will simply message you then click block quickly and nothing will have changed?

Ignore it, block back, have a nice day.

They are trolls. Why are you trying to respond?

I’m not trying to respond to them, I just don’t want them to be able to message me once they have blocked me.

If someone blocks you, why should they be allowed to message you?

I feel like this is a flawed system. I’ve been blocked by trolls twice now and each time its happened they carried on sending abusive messages and laughing at the fact I can’t respond.

I don’t mind that they want to do this and are enjoying it, I just kept reporting them, but why should they be allowed to send messages to someone they blocked?

When using messaging apps such as WhatsApp and you block someone, you cannot message them unless you unblock them.

I know you can block them as well and I have done so. It’s just that it has been like this in guild wars 1 as well and to be honest I feel like it’s something that should have been implemented a long time ago.

I’ve also noticed that you can view the location of the person you blocked as well as if they’re online or not, which I feel like is too much information for this person you don’t want to have contact with in the game.

I feel like Anet should consider adding this in the game.

[Just to clarify this is not about wanting to respond to them, its about not letting them be able to message you once they have blocked you]

[I accidentally set this as Q & A and can’t change it back ]
