Today at 4:03 PMI’ve been trying to find how to block someone here but perhaps because I use an iPhone it’s limited?

1. Tap their name
2. Press ignore

Today at 5:22 PMThe only way I’ll block someone is if it effectively actually blocks them from me as well as me from them

Today at 5:26 PMI mean if I block someone I want to block them from seeing what I post as well as from seeing what they post. I can already just ignore someone just by scrolling

It blocks them from seeing your profile.
The reason sites like reddit and WF don't block people from seeing your PUBLIC posts is because they are PUBLIC, and anyone who is blocked by you can just LOG OUT to see your PUBLIC posts. It makes no sense to block others from seeing posts that a guest would be able to see.
What should matter is not being bothered by them and that's generally what most people want when blocking someone. I understand if this was something private like a facebook profile or a private chat then yes, all of those are blocked to anyone you ignore, and they are not able to contact you. However, your posts will be visible just as they always have been and always will be to anyone who comes across this site.

Today at 6:03 PMThe sad part of all that, is that an awesome opportunity for learning and understanding has effectively be quashed and redirected to unhealthy discourse.
If I was a mod, my choice would be to educate a person on etiquette and if that failed then ban one from said topic instead of ban everyone from it.
He essentially “won”. And that’s unfortunate. If that happened to a topic I made, it’d be the last one I made.

Sometimes it can't be helped. Not everyone who can help is going to help nicely.Samuel the Druidic Auger said:

No rules were really broken. I'm not someone who believes in over-moderation and stepping in for every little thing. I've given quite a few tools for members to self-moderate using reactions, ignoring etc. I'm not here to make sure people are being nice to each other.Samuel the Druidic Auger said:

No, he didn't. Nobody won.Samuel the Druidic Auger said:
