AAkasha -> RE: Creep Filter Feature Idea (7/6/2008 2:12:48 PM)
|
I am not a fan of any kind of filtering or blocking by the site, but I have to admit there's something intriguing about the idea that a person can be limited or penalized if they are blocked by too many people. No one can have a "gang" mentality if you don't know who else is blocking, and you can only block in RESPONSE to someone contacting you, so why not? You can't create fake account to get someone penalized, because they can only be penalized by what *they* do. And the penalties can be minor but annoying. Something like if a person gets blocked by 10 different users, they can only send 2 emails a day for a month. Sure they can create another account, but that does get to be a hassle after some period of time, and if they just are someone who bothers 50 people a day with crap/spam/cut and paste emails they might start to be more careful. It's kind of the same idea of putting someone on newsgroup moderation if they are trouble makers.
