Blocking individuals

Hi,

Sorry if this has been covered. In the latest version of D Online is there a way to create a personal block list?

I was just burned by a guy who started swearing in one hand so I didn't rematch. Then I randoming got matched with him. Continued swearing then started slow-rolling when he decided I was getting "too much luck".

The old extension made it really easy to avoid guys like this in the future but I can't see how to do it with the modern desktop version.

Thanks!

Ed

You can't. Not even with the Making More Fun mod.

Honestly saying you are gonna slow play is probably more effective than actually doing it

I think this was definitely the right call.  Someone who creates a novelty account like this, and informs their opponent that they're doing it on purpose, they're just looking for the resign.  They don't want to sit there for 2 mins between each copper anymore than you do, they want to move on to the next game to get a quick resignation from someone else. 

In this case, what's their game though?  I wonder if this being done on purpose to try and force MF to fix this.

You could even make a bot doing nothing but playing a copper every 3 minutes. That would be the worst troll bot to get matched against.

It's one persistent troll making new accounts. I've been screening for them and have banned a few that haven't been reported yet. And the ones that have been reported are banned as well. He seems to have slowed down in the last couple of days. These people usually burn out on the "fun." But we do investigate all these reports. Screenshots are golden.

I had similar experience with WTF!?!?!

WTF?!?!!? plays fast though, so it's greatly preferable to the guy that buys too much treasure in Scrying Pool games, then curses at you about his "bad luck" constantly, then finishes with the traditional copper......copper...........copper slow playing.

Do you have an inscription for this, or perhaps an alternate image hosting site? I cannot view imgur images, and I wish to partake in the lols.

It's not particularly creative or entertaining.

I would transcribe it, but that seems even more like skirting the rules than posting the picture.

also, try this. seems like that might be your problem:

https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/1979er/i_cannot_access_imgur_anymore_browsing_reddit_is/

No, my ISP blocks anything from Imgur, because my parents have an internet filter.

HOWEVER, replacing imgur with filmot in the web address works. Toppest of keks.

Internet filter? It's 2016, you can free yourself from that with one Google search!
