Hey Tumblr, welcome to your better blocking system. So much better that we changed its name from "Ignore" to "Block." A proper, muscular name. Solid as a block.

Someone acting like a tool? Go ahead, block them. Here's what they won't be able to do:

The following things are wrong with your blocking system:

The originator of a post should NEVER be blocked from reblogging their own post.You should get notified as soon as someone blocks you. People time and time again are reblogging posts, saying nasty things, then blocking the original poster. And there is no way to respond ON YOUR OWN POST to these people.
If you unblock someone, that person should get notified.
Giving them the option to continue the mutual block or lift it. Sometimes cooler heads prevail and peace is restored.
You should have your own list of not only people you've blocked but people who have blocked you.
Remove or color the reblog button on posts from people who blocked you so you know before you type a long comment and hit reblog to find you can't.

If someone blocks you they SHOULD NOT be able to continue making posts about you or with your tumblr handle in them. No one should be to post things about you or hold you in a negative light and you have no idea they are doing or saying it. Everyone deserves the right to defend themselves or their stances on subjects if they find they are in a disagreement with someone. Some people get very nasty to others on this site

Respectfully, this is not a better blocking feature @staff. Currently the block settings allow for individual users to block someone, hijack the contents of their blog while they are unaware, and make it so they cannot reply back to the contents of their own post because they have been blocked. This feature also makes it very easy for art and writing plagiarists to block the original creator, plagiarize their work while they are unaware, and deny them the ability to address the fact they have been plagiarized. This blocking system actually caters to Tumblr's worst cyber-stalkers, bullies, and thieves. It's very easy to abuse.

Blocked users should be notified they have been blocked. And once a user has blocked another they should not be able to reblog content from that individual's blog and perpetuate one-sided harassment or steal from them. The block should be mutual; one person blocks another and they cannot reblog content from them any longer just as the person they blocked cannot reblog from them.

@support please consider making these changes or addressing this glaring issue with the current blocking feature. Thank you.

Hey Tumblr, I'm still trying to figure out why people that have blocked me are allowed to reblog my posts. If someone has blocked me, they should have absolutely no interest in engaging with me. At the very least, if someone has blocked me, they should be unable to reblog my posts. It is unfair to have my own content criticized, attacked, etc. without any ability to respond. Another problem with this feature is that it allows users to steal creative content and block the original creators.

This feature has huge potential for abuse (it's already happening), and it needs to be fixed.

I would also like the ability to see who has blocked me so that I may block them in return. I have had people block me whom I have never once interacted with, and I would prefer not to see content that I am unable to engage with.

Better blocking my butt. This allows people to hijack your posts and then block you so you can't even put your two sense back in.

When I block someone, I don't want them to see hide nor hair of me. Maybe you should think about restructuring how things appear once someone is blocked.

@support

This. And the whole blocking system is great for art thieves. They no longer have to worry about being caught art thieving… Epic fail tumblr.
