What makes you blacklist someone?

Here's a list

But for me, I only do it when I have concerns of scamming or regifting from the person.

I blacklist people for giving away Tuebor.

I used to blacklist people for not saying thanks, for being rude, or breaking SG rules.

recently I thought about it and realized that there isn't many reasons why I wouldn't want someone to win my giveaway. I may not like some people, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't win a game they might actually want to play.
So to answer your question I only blacklist people who I find extremely rude or a constant rulebreaker. I only have two people on the list currently.

23 blacklists isnt that bad at all. People blacklist for all kinds of reasons. They could hate your name or avatar. They could disagree with an opinion you posted or hate a giveaway you made. Even making this thread will get you some blacklists. Don't worry about it because the small amount is a tiny percent of the website :)

I only blacklist for one of two reasons: a) being a scammer; or b) being an intolerable jerk.

Pretty much a lot of the annoying spammy attention whore types that frequent this site and are always starting threads. I have a lot of the "popular" people on here blocked; not that that would matter much to them since I haven't listed much in awhile.

• Non-Activated Gifts
• Multiple wins (with exceptions to when that occurred)
• Creating Fake GA
• Re-gifting after winning from mass GA (90% of my list include them)
• Extreme leechers (don't care about the numbers but I check whether they have played the game, usually if >1 achievement is lower than 5%)
  I have one member with 7 non-activated wins, which is the worst case. I don't BL other than these reasons.

For Fake GTAV giveaways ;p

I don't usually blacklist people for making ONE mistake. Like not activating one gift or not sending one game etc. But if they do it often... There's this guy who won a gift from me. I checked his profile, he had won 40 games and given 0, which is fine by me, that's what levels are for, if I made a level 0 giveaway it's because I wanted someone at level 0 to win and maybe consider contributing to the site, but the thing is: He made 2 giveaways, both fake. I never wanted a reroll so bad in this 10 months I'm using SG. In fact, I never even wanted a reroll before.

My current blacklist is: ZERO.

I only blacklist for scamming, extreme rudeness or being blacklisted (if im aware of- i don't care enought to discover who blacklisted me for stupid/random reasons since i gave none).

I recall one scam attempt when i was still new on the site but that was before Blacklists if im not mistaken.
Ever since i haven't been scammed nor offended directly.

I hope 2 way blacklists fixes a good amount of the blacklist insanity but that doesn't seem enougth for me. How endless they can be for any/whatever reason will always lead to weird 'abuse'. I can't call it abuse per se as, after all, no one should be forced to gift someone they don't want to but come on, how trigger happy many users are borders being offensive. Its unfriendly, rarely polite and so often immature.

Its against everything i believe any online community should be much less one around gifting.

Not saying all bls are like that mind you. Surely theres dumb people being offensive, abusive or rule breaking being blacklisted left and right as they should - but by the amount of blacklisting going around i doubt the 'fair and reasoneable blacklisted' reaches half of it. Heck, it probably not even in the 30%.

Thankfully i haven't met any nasty users myself. Surely ive seen tons of leechers, ungrateful and so on- but i myself have been lvl 0 with no income at some point ('leecher' until i could start giving back more), most doesn't deserve the time id spent double checking and blacklisting and most importantly - they won't see the good and best GAs anyway, people high-lvl, whitelist and group those... so why bother so much?

I know some of my 29 blacklisters were because of unplayed wins - GAs i won with no hdd spare (seriously, im with 1-10 gigas left daily, i fill it up as soom as i clear some) and or others on my backlog to finish. Guess they don't have backlogs nor took their time to play anything.

The others i know i gave no reason. Curious thing is how my blacklisting increased two fold quickly after i started thanking GAs for entering because some people were blacklisting for non-commenting entries... (facepalm)

At the end of the day happy trigger blacklisting seens to me like almost a poison in the community. It generates drama, countless discussions that are just waste of time and server space- and lead to more blacklisting, more drama... We could be better then that.

I blacklist for very few reasons. Trolling, starting trouble, or overall just being a toxic addition to the community in general. I don't really blacklist for anything else other than to return a blacklist I've noticed has been given to me.

Regifting.

Pretty sure that's the only reason I've used so far.

Zero blacklist 0:)

I blacklist black people and whitelist white people. I mean it's right there in the name...

I only blacklist people who are extremely rude, rule breakers if they don't do anything to address the issue when told about the guidelines, racists, or mostly anyone being generally an asshole or disrespecting others and their opinions. Honestly though, I've been tempted to wipe my blacklist and quit using it. I only have 18 people there, most of who are inactive.

What makes you blacklist someone?

Nothing.

I only blacklist people that have already blacklisted me. :P

I dunno, I don't have anybody on my blacklist - so far. Guess who ever manages to get on there has to be super rude and/or a total jerk. Apparently I was lucky so far ;)
Although there seem to be a few ppl who think something like that of me. Not sure what's going on there. Might be because I'm so tolerant or something. They always seemed to pop up after I commented a tolerant discussion, quite suspicious really ;)

Being a rude, offensive or general things that would make me dislike you in real life(eg, being a dick).

´ll just say what a good percentage is always so afraid of expressing:

I FELT LIKE IT
