I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

Remove this, for the love of God. It's so annoying. What is the point of blocking when we are still reminded of them?

I know right.
I hate being reminded of the usernames in others' replies as well.
Those place holders serve a purpose. It let's you know there is someone else involved in the conversation.

@AcidBurn Ah, no no, I mean, once the blocked person responds to the story you wouldn't be able to see their thread at all. You don't see what they are saying anyway so what is the point? If someone else starts the thread and the blocked person contributes you can't see that they contributed with in the comments anyway.
@CrazyMusicLover I've explained the point to you multiple times already. Let's say we were having this conversation on someone else's post and someone you had blocked replied to my comment. I'd be responding to them and you wouldn't even know there was someone else in the conversation. You would think everything I was saying was meant for you because you wouldn't see anyone else in the convo. That's why it needs to be noted that someone else has commented. That's why that place holder has to be there.

@AcidBurn Oh yes, that way yes. But it doesn't even work like that. You actually see only "this message was deleted" and nothing else unless there's a bug and you see the tag that other participant gave in his comment. I've seen threads where it looks like one person is talking to themselves.

It is rather redundant.
I think (I hope) that we're all smart enough to know if the conversation has a curious gap, a comment must have been removed.

@xixgun Haha, yes, I don't see why there's not something like "You are not allowed to view this comment" instead. Not that it would stop annoying me but at least they would make things the way they are.
