PlayStation®Network General

[Cristari]

Hi there I would like to make a suggestion to alter the Block List and how it performs within the Playstation Network and any games that you are playing online.

Firstly if this has already been suggested I would like to apologise as I was unable to find anything in the search engine on these forums.

After recent incidents in games with the general moron playing in them I would like to suggest a way of making the Block List more effective within the Playstation Network and with games that use it. With Both the XBOX and PC with "Games for Windows Live" it is possible to enter someone into your block list and never meet them again in a multi-player Online game. I would like to suggest a similar system be implemented on the Playstation Network.

This makes the Block list more useful than just a system to stop people spamming mails at you. I would like to know if this has ever been considered & why it has never been implemented if it has. Having this function on the Playstation Network would remove the need to submit Griefing reports which we all know are ineffective and must take up a massive amount of administration time for those within the Playstation Network to sort through, categorise and implement action if needed.

Allowing us to manage our own game play and who we play that with would not only simplify our gaming but in fact immensely improve it. With an effective block list making sure you can not join a game with someone on your Block list and vice versa we will all very quickly be able to improve our gaming experience and hopefully keep the idiots out of gaming.

If anyone here agrees with this please /Sign your support any further suggestions to enhance this feature would also be welcome. If your a Forum Moderator please can you make sure someone can see this that may be able to do something about it and if your a Dev and can comment It would be most appreciated.

PS.

If the system does this already I have seen no evidence of it or there is something not working as I have bumped into people I have on my block list in some games.

Just for good measure I posted this suggestion on the US boards as well.

Brilliant Idea. Sony should do that. Idiot-free gaming would be sweet.
