The big issue I see with full blocking is all the spammers will just block hive watchers and other abuse teams. Because there's a monetary incentive and due to the way we distribute the rewards pool via upvotes and downvotes this causes a pretty big problem. Not sure what the best answer is but fully blocking people isn't so simple.

Yeah that's true. I'm being told PeakD has a few good experiments going on with communities. Will be good to check out.
See this comment (it's my test account that I muted in Black Lives Matter community): https://peakd.com/hive-186309/@blacklives/re-stellabelle-qdahv7
By default, the comments by this account are muted, and also, this account cannot post within the Black Lives Matter community.
You can still see the comments if you click on it, but it defaults it to being collapsed, so you don't have to do any work or use energy to unsee it. It's quite an effective tool as I did have one troll that I had to mute in there. They became annoyed by the fact that I muted them, and gave up.
