Any chance we can get an option to blacklist or block users?
Whilst I would support something like this it's hard to enforce and easy to abuse. Who would get to decide if someone was worthy of blocking?

Request for Block User
Hey Jeffrey,
Since it's so easy to change your @username, it's hard to keep track of those unworthy of our time and effort. It would be helpful to be able mark an account so maybe their threads and posts show up with red text color or something.

@Snapey I meant a personal blacklist, so any user could blacklist any other user..
I'm thinking since we're spending a lot time and effort here trying to help people and some people think this is a place for free code or for various reasons they are just not worth our time. We can add those accounts to our blacklist and their threads/post would show up with a red border or red text even if they change their username.
I'm at a point it's getting hard to remember everyone ☺

I know I'm late for the party, but it would be nice to have this feature implemented. Most users are very polite and friendly, but there are quite a few that are just plain arrogant and dismissive.
It's hard to keep track of them with the constant new user flow, the generic avatars and the fact that anyone can change their username at any time.
A simple blacklist could allow you to ignore threads and comments created by specific users.
Just a thought.

Speaking of people changing their names .......

I don't get it. I've been registered since 2016 and I don't remember ever changing my username. As a matter of fact, I just came back after two years of inactivity.
