I Have a Suggestion for Similar Worlds

hello admins if a member is blocked repeatedly will it impact the profile. If a member is blocked 10 times in one day will you disciple that member?

In my opinion, the number of blocks someone gets shouldn’t automatically have any effect on their reputation score. People can be blocked with some frequency for any number of frivolous reasons or because they state controversial opinions on "hot button" topics. Even though I never bullied, harassed, or preyed on anyone and was usually polite and respectful to people, I still found myself blocked from time-to-time on EP. I know many others had the same experience. What should matter in terms of one's reputation score are the reasons they were blocked. Being blocked 10 times for bullying should be taken very seriously and there should be adverse consequences for it. Being blocked 20 times for stating pro-choice (or pro-life) views on abortion shouldn't result in any penalty at all, including the reputation score taking a hit, just as long as the person stating those views wasn't exceedingly obnoxious to people who disagreed with them.
