I hope this will not cause paying back unnecessary grudges increases.
If anybody can create a blacklist, then blacklist will be on a rise and people who does not even deserve to be on the blacklist get blacklisted either offending the owner of the blacklist stuff or getting into a little conflict.
I hope this proposal is rethink again
Blacklisting another user of itself doesn't do anything to that user. People exchange worse insults via comments all the time.
LOL you would know =)
However, I reckon @blocktrades is right, as muting is essentially the same as blacklisting from the user perspective, just less efficient and scalable. Presently we are dependent on extremely centralized blacklists to prevent massive spam from overwhelming the blockchain, and the idea here is to distribute that function, which strongly protects freedom of speech.
You seem to be the poster child for that.

In this decentralized model, each person defines their own blacklist that only affects their own viewing experience.
Other people can chose to opt-in or opt-out of adopting someone else's blacklist.
By-the-way, it's nice that I can see and reply to your comments again!
