I'd take that over the situation now. At least if they had to resort to bannable offenses to retaliate, they'd actually get banned.

All blocking does now is give them free reign to harass you, which completely defeats the point.

Like if we have to be afraid of vengeful users who want to win something, why have blocking at all then? We might as well just bend over and hope they use lube.
