Hey!, so i’ve had a few rough interactions with members of the Community, and was curious if there’s a way to block an account and it’s characters?, If not would an option like that even be possible?
Damn, honestly just wanted to avoid a few people on here, as they’ve got multiple characters (and only one of which i even know about), Cheers for the response though

A lot of folk unintentionally reveal their other characters if you know where to look.
Alt anonymity has always been a tricky balance.
It is both a nice thing to keep other players unaware of my alts. But it is also at times problematic to not know other players’ alts.
So, no. There is no way to block a player. Nor is it likely that I will implement it for Wolfery.
Instead, you will have to rely on muting and reporting incidents of suspected stalking or other harassment to the mods.
The mods do not have free access to alt-information either (that is restricted to admins and above me), but I have given them tools to allow them to verify if someone is using alts to harass another player.
So, if you suspect a player is using an alt to harass or stalk you, report it. Include logs. Tell them whom you suspect it may be. And then they can help you out.

Exactly. You can see it in the source:
The created report can be seen by other moderators. Mods may use compare as they see fit for the sake of moderation, but it will become quite obvious for others mods if someone is misusing it.
It is at times a dull tool, especially when trying to catch people evading bans (for which it needs to be improved). But for the sake of verifying someone using an alt for harassment, it works satisfactory.
