When Blocking Users Also Hide Their Chapters

[Yunwu]

As the thread says, we shouldn't be able to see the chapter releases of a user we have blocked.
"Chapters from blocked groups will be hidden on all chapter listings."
So why not hide chapters from blocked users?

There's a user who is snipping manga and causing problems for the original translators.
And because that user is the 'no group' if I block them then I'd miss out reading
chapters from all the users who have not made a group when posting chapters?

That's why I'd like to suggest hiding chapter releases from users we block.
After all, if we have blocked the user, then I'd doubt we'd want to read anything from that user.

I hope you can consider my suggestion. Thank you! ^^

As per the sticky thread "READ FIRST: Planned and Rejected Features", blocking/hiding chapters by uploading user is rejected.

@MrIncognito Oh, I did read through it, but I didn't see that. Guess I missed it. Sorry. ><

@MrIncognito
May I ask why that feature was rejected? Using 'no group' seems like an easy way for trolls and whoever to bypass the 'Block Group' feature.
I came here cause I had a similar problem with wanting to block by uploader, but not being able to due to them using 'no group'.

I would have to assume it would be the fact that it would draw yet another table into every query for chapter lists and this site has enough problems with database load as-is

They could just make a new account to bypass blocking. Blocking by User doesn't work for this reason.
