I'm going to disagree. The best way to discourge wildlife is to stop leaving food out for it. Don't read them at all, so you're not inclined to leave a trail of crumbs that brings them back. I rarely feel the urge to block people outright, but if I see more than 2 posts from somebody that's just full of vitriol and serves no productive purpose (e.g. spurring thoughtful conversation about the game), they get on the list. Others wind up there for completely inane garbage. Jimayo, J.A.L., etc.Few people like that here, best to just skim through their posts, they add nothing to the conversation but are funny so you don't want to outright ignore them.
Even dalli_x, despite his posts being 99.6% bullshit holds a much higher standing, as he gets people talking in an amusing manner. That's a good contribution, even when he and I disagree strongly (re: pregnancy test location).
We'll see if this post persists for more than 3 hours, though. A mysterious number of my fully topical posts in this thread have been deleted in the last week.
