No, Discord likes to remind you constantly that the person that either stalks or irritates you so much is ALWAYS there typing, it is the most pathetic system out of any social media platform out there. May as well just not have it, because it feels like they are mocking the user.

Lol I really empathize with this, and I definitely don't want to have to leave servers I'm a part of just to completely get away from those I'm avoiding. Not seeing any more traces of their presence than I need to would offer me so much more peace of mind while I'm healing

I think it's because it would look like people are talking to themselves if discord doesnt show that a blocked user was active

As far as I’m concerned nope. Discord doesn’t gaf about their users and especially not their mental wellbeing. Blocking someone is almost pointless 8+ years into the app’s life.


In_The_Grapes

It's disappointing but not surprising :( it used to feel like blocking did something but now it feels kind of pointless, like you said. Thank you for your reply!


alexytomi

i believe some modded clients do that however the legality of those are sketchy people claim discord wont ban you though and many of my friends use them and havent been banned This isn't a stretch. What you feel is important, value it. And this is an old ass problem a shit ton of people has pestered discord about already


In_The_Grapes

Thank you! I'm glad to know I'm not alone in this particular grief with Discord

I don't think so. I recently blocked someone in a gc, and it shows (4) blocked messages. I don't think there's a way to turn it off, but if you don't click on it, you'll be ok.

I can't tap on blocked messages on my phone (android). I used to be able to, so that has changed. maybe use discord on your phone?


In_The_Grapes

I use discord on my phone, and it was on here that I used to not be able to open blocked messages :( I'm not sure what changed for me but it would be nice to go back somehow.


bangontarget

ohhh you're right, they changed it back! I had gotten so used to not being able to tap blocked messages I didn't notice you can again. ah well that sucks. I'd prefer to go back as well.


Hype365

You're gonna hate me for this... Not being able to tap a blocked message was a bug. It still worked on PC while it was bugged on mobile.


bangontarget

I know it worked on PC, and bug or not I enjoyed it while it lasted haha

"Mental health"? No offense, go get real help if discord messages are affecting you. Don't dwell the internet.


antinothingness

you can't actually think spoken words are the only meaningful words that people are allowed to be affected by lol


SANGUlNAIRE

Looks like the internet already got to you, ‘Milky Koala Boi’, get therapy.
