  I never thought I would be suggesting this but you need to add a block feature, something like the way facebook has it. No, I have nothing to report but I would love this feature and only utilize it on one or two people. The nice thing about the block feature there is once blocked you cannot see anything about them and vice versa for you. Think about it! It would be awesome!

  It would be useful for many reasons, if it also had some options to toggle on/off, for each player:

  - block them in the forums where you never see their posts

  - block them from wall posts, where neither player can post or view on each others wall

  - block them from game play, where they won't show up in any game you are in

  It would be a welcomed upgrade even if there were no options and a block automatically handled those collectively. But I'd prefer some options built in to it that are user defined.

  A simple and great idea that over time will allow peer pressure to take care of both the quitter and sandbagger problems. If enough players cut off those who are quitting and sandbagging the offenders will have no choice but to clean up their acts or not find a game to play.

  Wholeheartedly support this. It would be a massively effective way to reduce quitting. Soon they wouldn't be able to find a game.

  Well to be honest I was just looking at this from a forum perspective but thinking about this from the multi-player aspect I do have to agree.....

  It's quite odd that it's not here, because most multi-user systems usually have it implemented as standard. Guess the programmers believe everyone gets on. lol

  you know.. now that you mention it..

   

  if given the choice between a new course or having a block feature (in my case for weeding out quitters) in the next update... I would take the block and wait for the course
