Ahoy o7!

Most of the time you only block people who post inappropriate advertising, but there are also cases where a block is caused by, for example, harassing, offensive, assaulting, abusive or threatening interactions.

And especially for these cases, it is essential that a block in the chat by one party means that the interaction no longer works on both sides, i.e. that the blocked party cannot read any messages from the blocking party.


Above all, people worthy of protection and minors (i am sure parents whose kids play this game can relate), who are also allowed to play Black Desert, need to be able to participate in the chat without the risk of people with whom they have previously had problems preventing interactions with them.

Abusive behavior in the anonymity of the internet sadly happens every day

On all social media and methods of communicating with other people, such as messenger services, a block means that the blocked person can no longer follow the content of the blocking person. Of course, this is not without reason and Black Desert has to make sure to level the playing field and provide a safe space for people who want to take part in chat.

Kind regards

You block them they can't interact w you at all. Don't really see why someone I have blocked reading my comments matters. The only way is if they see your comment and respond and now you upset you can't read their reply or someone says oh this person responded and tells you what they said. Like how are you not safe from this person you have blocked and never see their comments again?

Block/report/casual genre ruined the gaming overall it ruined the pvp mostly. There was a time where competition was at peak and that competition would make you get better. Now all we have is people who afraid words and people who doesn't have reason to grow to be better players.

I agree that the block system should be reviewed, and should be bidirectional. Simply blocking an harasser (for issues beyond PVP) does not suffice in this game.

To add, there are too many other functions in which someone can interract with your character against your approval. After blocking an individual they can continuously follow you and post signboards to continue their line of forced communication. They can sit and spam friend requests. They can even spam request duels, trades, party invites, and yars to which the alternitive is disabling those requests for yourself entirely.

Once a block has been issued, it should remove these points of contact between the two accounts.

I feel that if someone is doing that, there should be further penalties placed on the person, this is out of the norm.  Support should be able to assist with that problem.  I would ask what a person did to get the attention of someone that drastically.  In all honesty the story you just told seems to be made-up.

Put a microphone in to a football players mouth or watch formula 1 you will learn which player is competitive which player doesn't deserve to be in the game at all. Getting effected by words in internet while spending 12 hours a day internet is not an excuse to kill competition for safer environment for a guy who logs in hit the mobs and leave. Those people has 0 value to competition yet has power over you, because you got mad during pvp and said "fuck". I'm sorry but players like you are the cancer of the competition and gaming community. We need extra dose of chemo to get rid of you all.

But unfortunately gaming companies are more focused on new players to generate short term income rather than be loyal to their long term playerbase who keeps the game alive.

I hope one day we can go back to 2008 where I don't get banned for saying words like shit, garbage, ur bad, fuck or a joke where it carries no bad intention but treated like one.

You wanna test a theory? Report this post see how it gets deleted because it contains "shit fuck garbage". That's the gaming world we live.

Affected.  Sir this is bdo, not football!  Competition is in combat, not chat, lol.  No, you can't say whatever you want.  Learn some self control. It's bad business to let toxic crap fester in chat.  Go to 4chan or the street corner to say whatever you want
