If I block a user, shouldn’t their votes not apply?

I’m guessing the answer is “it’s too hard to make that work” but I figured I’d ask.

    Instead of blocking it should be called ignoring. It’s a tool against annoyances, not against stalkers.

    Ok…but it kind of seems like it SHOULD work that way. I feel like protecting users from stalkers is a high priority than any negative effects one might get from exploiting a political bias via upvotes/downvotes on a platform that downplays the importance of upvotes and downvotes.

      I think stalking should merit direct involvement of the admins, because it’s more serious and also because needs more nuance than what a button has.
