Comment on Thanks for Participating in International Fanworks Day 2021

    This question came up in a previous news post. The response at the time from Ao3 in the comments was:

    "The ability to block a specific user from interacting with you is a planned feature that we have been actively working on developing for the past few months. However, since it is a complex feature that will affect multiple parts of the site, we can't give a specific timeline for when it will be implemented.

    We will be publishing a news post in the next few weeks which will give a general update on this topic and our progress."

    So there should be some news on it soon I expect.

      Thank you! I've seen the comments on that post.

      However, I'm here to show dissatisfaction and remind the mod team of this issue because until I see them take action, I can't be sure they're doing anything. Sadly, there isn't much I can do aside from whining in the comments here.

        Hey that's fair enough! I wasn't sure so I thought you know what, better to share just in case. There were SO many comments on that post even I had trouble keeping track!

        Well, you could always volunteer to help (even people who can't program can test, and that's useful too). These are unpaid contributors we're talking about, who have a real life and bills to pay. Users stomping their foot are more likely to discourage them than to magically give them more free time to work on the platform.

        The committee that deal with new features and the one that deals with international fandom day arent the same, so whining in the comments here, as you say, isn't really going to help because the committee you're whining to can't do anything about that feature.

        You could always send a ticket, there's a link at the end of the page (the "technical support and feedback" button) and await an official response from the team.....
