So, yes, you can join groups that have people you blocked as long as they are not the commander, the blocked people can also see your group and join it, but you won't see their chat, however they will see what you type in chat regardless. You're talking past each other. Nothing either of you is saying contradicts anything the other is saying . . . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elricht Kaltwind.8796 Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 (edited) Sounds like problems for people with sensitive kittens. My block list is empty, so I guess I won't ever have those issues. Edited November 3, 2023 by Elricht Kaltwind.8796 3 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This post is true. >You can see the squad, even if someone in the squad - that isn't the commander - is on your block list. This post is not. Those are two different things. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futa.4375 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 The lfg is empty because it has been quite empty for a while, even at prime EU time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gop.8713 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 I think OP's issue may revolve around the misperception that blocking is a punishment. Blocking is an opportunity for you as a player to tell the game that you would like to restrict the opportunities the game provides to you bc you find some of those opportunities (i.e. players) offensive. That's great \o/. Most players probably fall into that category. But if you have found a player so offensive in the past that you couldn't bear the thought of existing with them in the same space in the future, how can you blame the game for accommodating you . . ? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I wanna test if it's true and probably 90% of the people on their don't play anymore anyway. Won't keep me from making a new 200+ list though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It vanishes off your LFG list. You can still join via "/squadjoin someone" should you happen to know that it's there and you know someone's name in it, but in LFG it's hidden to you. I can't confirm this LFG behavior. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sobx.1758 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 (edited) Yeah, as far as I saw today what OP describes doesn't seem to be a thing at all. A blocked person joining a squad doesn't make that squad invisible (in lfg) to the player who blocked that person.

That's interesting, because when i tested it with my alts it actually worked the way the OP described, but for you and others it didn't, so there has to be another variable in this system?

Nekos.3649 Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 this system is not very cool tbh... mainly for pvp players and you know why, if it was ONLY about comm and blocked guy, then ok pretty cool 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hashberry.4510 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 This may make sense for instance groups but now they need a better way to move to meta maps. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nephalem.8921 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 This has been a thing for a long time. Useful in pve when you don't want to be in a group with a "hi dps", rifle mech or hfb main a 2nd time. Would just tilt me anyways. I like how this system works. It is just annoying in open world 50 player squads. Could maybe only apply to 5-10 player groups? Could also just use a colour like groups with friends in them are blue. blocked could be red. But i want to be warned about groups with leechers i encountered before. 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you refresh lfg after blocking the person? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know it wasn't "removed" because it wasn't a thing in the first place. Something might just be buggy from time to time I guess? Joining almost full squads? Commie taking it off lfg? Sequence of events looked like this: Player A blocks player B. Player B opens lfg, refreshes, joins a squad. Player A opens lfg, refreshes, joins the same squad. Repeated the whole thing, but now player A picks a squad while player B joins later. Both players are in the same guild (neither was representing it) though, but tbh I can't be bothered with this any further, someone else can keep testing it if they want to. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gotejjeken.1267 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 A simple solution is separate block lists for each game mode--as someone might be an idiot in competitive but not say much in PvE. Or might only ever really play one mode, so it cleans up / organizes the list a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obtena.7952 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 (edited) I don't see a problem here. If someone you blocked someone, clearly you don't want to have anything to do with them. Why would you need to see their squads if you have no interest in interacting with them? Edited November 5, 2023 by Obtena.7952 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inculpatus cedo.9234 Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 If you don't see the LFGs, how do you know they have blocked players in them? How do you know they even exist? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you know they even exist? You see blocked person is online. You unblock them and see a fractal lfg again. Lfg disappears when you block them again. Its not like 40k ap people doing 5k dps would improve in any way so blocking is the best option anyways. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ugrakarma.9416 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Perhaps stop fighting in open world pve chat and then stopping blocking to many people? i had a work mate that always talked about fights with neigbours wherever he go, i said to he think: perhaps the problems is him, not his neighbours.

Killthehealersffs.8940 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) We can use that if we ever implant a auto-lfg in 1 year in the Training Lfg Raiders will block low dps players and they will play with the same minded people . So will do the OW I propose , to improve it so raiders main and alts , put them in the "same pot" + if they have LI (1000) and block non-LI user + put any raiders idea (every 3 months) , like "you cannot push the "Join" button if you don't have 500 LI" that acts as another equation on the filter :P Then the only thing left is an official dps in Expirianced Tab and balancing the Training LFG like Ammytas (not need to increasedps , but they can still die) If something happens to lfg like massive afking or going in the Steam forums and crying about "P2W relics", then there no need to lock anything behind instanced content and instead there should be like the new tonga set Brb Edit: Or do the second part first (dps addon) , and lets do what raiders believe is right to increase the population (gold they will say) . Make a blogpost old gg , every 3 months and tell us how much the instanced population was increased by % by their choice , and we the OW will see what raiders think is best for the us (casuals) . Give them the ship's wheel for 1-2 years , rather than telling us "no" in everything new that might pull resources from their Mode Edited November 6, 2023 by Killthehealersffs.8940 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
