I haven't posted on this forum in a while... in fact i really only go on here to peek at some mods but i saw this when i was logging into the page and just had to check it out. Quite frankly i'm disgusted at this decision.
People can and will abuse the block = autoban system. People can literally get banned for no reason at all this way if someone decides to be a troll and block random innocent players who just want nothing more but to socialize, explore and roleplay (which is the general purpose of this game. who would want to get banned out of the blue when they did nothing wrong?)
another thing is that none of the staff have been contacted about this and they have absolutely no say in it, thats just wrong and unfair. If someone is making a decision that involves a group of people, that specific group of people have to be notified about it so they can have their say. Games have moderators for a reason: To keep things in order. I don't recall World of Warcraft or literally any other MMO having a self-governed moderating system. They all have staff teams that are meant to do their job and keep everything in order and make sure everyone follows the rules.
As Sigyrn said, this is quite disappointing. I've only been here for 3 years but thats long enough to know how this game has worked in the past
That's my two cents. While i'm afraid i cant do much, i guess i'll just have to sit back and watch what happens.
