Blocked people and interaction limits

Reading your blocks…

What a block does

• The person cannot comment on, react to, or open issues or pull requests in the repositories you manage in OSCR, nor comment on your research issues, nor follow you.
• Their events and their mentions of you no longer reach your notifications or your feed.
• It is silent: they are not told, and what they meet says only that they cannot take part.

What a block does not do

• It does not hide what they already wrote from others: to have content removed, report it from the "Report" link beside it (what breaks the rules).
• It does not stop them from reading public pages.
• It does nothing on GitHub: blocking someone there is yours to do on GitHub.

You block someone from their profile, or from one of their comments ("Block its author").

Interaction limits

For a while, limit who may comment, react, open issues and pull requests in your repositories, during a flood of spam, a heated thread, a release. The stricter of a repository's own limit and your account's applies; a limit ends by itself.
