Can we block users also here on Boards, if we can in the game client?
It's a feature I'd appreciate, I don't want to be attacked by only-shaming assholes as happens to me time to time ^^

Use F.E.k.
I think blocking on the boards is very harmful to its purpose as a place for open discussions.
How would blocking work? Would they simply be unable to see your posts? Or would you not see theirs? If you could prevent people from replying to your posts, people would simply block anyone that disagrees with them and it would appear to everyone that nobody ever disagrees with them, and that's absolutely not how it should be.
If you are having issues with certain players harassing you, please report them. If you feel moderation is not handling it appropriately, please visit us on the Moderation Discord here and give us some context to your reports so we can help out; sometimes these things do get missed if we can't see the big picture with individual reports.
If the problem is with the board guidelines or Universal Rules, we are open to discussing them, so please post on the Boards Community & Moderation board if you have ideas.
Other than that, there is a blacklisting feature provided by the third party Forum Enhancer Kit (FEK). It doesn't stop them from replying to you, but it does hide their posts from you.
