&lt;div&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Blocking a Player&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Blocking a player directs the games matchmaker to not put you and the blocked player in the same instance. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Once you have blocked someone you need to quit the game and restart it, for it to take effect.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;If they are friends with someone in the same instance with you, the games matchmaker will put the blocked player in your same instance.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;It&#039;s doing this because it ignores who you have blocked in order to keep players that are friends in the same instance. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;A blocked player cannot see a list of who has blocked them.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;They can still see your chat messages and they can respond to you in the Comms Channels.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You are only able to Block a player when they are in the same instance as you, when they post a message in a Comms Channel or accepts your friend request. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Which means you have to have contact with this player in order to block them.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;There are two ways you can Block a Player, through the in game Comms Panel and in the Main Menu under Friends and Private Groups.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Blocking a Player in the Comms Panel&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;If you see their name in the Comms Panel you can select it, then select to block them.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;This works no matter what type of chat they use, Local or System.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;The System Channel allows communication between game modes like Solo, PG&#039;s and Open. &amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;So you can block and Open player while you are in Solo or a PG, if they chat in the System channel without risk.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Also if their name appears in the Local player list you can also select their name then select Block to block them.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;However they have to be in the same game mode as you are, Open or the same PG.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;Blocking a Player in the Main Menu under Friends and Private Groups.&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;To block a player in the Friends and Private Groups panel, you first must send them a friend request.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Once they accept your friend request you can go to their name and select block, then you can unfriend them.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;Issues with this means they have your player name and can retaliate through other means.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;They might be keeping a list of names of players that do this, and often they have friends and other accounts they can use to hunt a player down.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
