No. Those are "WG is unable to code a game feature properly" threads. Well, the two don't necessarily exclude one another. You can have an unintended snoflake-o-meter as a result of WG failing to implement the advanced feature of a blackilst in a way safe for the game's performance.

[NECRO] Deckeru_Maiku Beta Tester 6,636 posts 24,864 battles Report post #13 Posted November 4, 2020 Seems I'm in the clear here, as - to my knowledge - my "Blacklist" contains a maximum of maybe five people or so... considering how often I see names I know in the battles, putting anyone on some kind of blacklist seems utterly needless for my. I probably never meet them anywhen again anyway... and even if I would chances would so much time would have passed that neither me nor him would each other anyway... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TOXIC] ThePurpleSmurf Players 2,554 posts Report post #14 Posted November 4, 2020 2 hours ago, DreiFiddy said: Their only solution is to clear your blacklist which I'm not going to do It doesn't work anyway in the way a blacklist is supposed to work. The only good thing about it is to add someone in a battle or at the result screen of a battle if you want to message this person later. It's much faster to click the name and send a message, then remove them from the list again in port than to use the equally useless ingame search that often doesn't find players even if you spell out the entire name correctly. The whole chat/message/list system in WoWs is horsecrap and needs a proper overhaul. Same goes for the chat bans. I'll never understand why battle chat bans also ban you from writing in port to people on your friends list or in clan chat. The manually applied chat bans do exactly this, they only ban you from the battle chat, all other chats are fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same, I'd like to be able to mark players with different icons. Until then, I'm keeping my list, which is way long. Freezes and all, don't care. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adm_Andre Players 280 posts 586 battles Report post #18 Posted November 5, 2020 What does the blacklist do? (from time to time some players a spamming the battle chat with quick messages, there i rightclick on them and "block messages from player". But i guess this is only valid for the current battle and has nothing to do with blacklist, or?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cleared the list, realised 95% of those players were long gone. No great problem. I did this too, around 60% of them weren't playing. Although if someone has more than 100 accounts blacklisted.... That'll take a lot of time to check them all. I had around 50 ones now around 20 something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
