I don't think you can.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

You can block them on PM; that's the only thing I know.

Is there anyone harassing you?

@TheNerfGuy No, not yet. I'm not going to go into details because I don't want this to become a thing, but long story short, I want to disconnect myself from someone I think is a toxic influence on me.

There used to be an option where you can immediately block a troper from P Ming you. I can't find it in the new system, either.

@TheNerfGuy You think they removed it? They still have the page where you can undo PM Blocks.

You can only block someone if they send you a PM. You cannot preemptively block anyone you want.

@Fighteer Yeah, but HOW can I do that? On the Messages page, the only buttons I have are "Send PM" and "PM Blocks", and the only thing that Troper pages have related to PMs is the "Send Message" button.

Go to a PM. There should be a block button, upper right.
