We had an incident today where an account had to be blocked server-wide.
This works wonderfully, the content can even be removed via checkbox.
I noticed that unlike the server-wide blocked servers, the server-wide blocked contacts do not show up on the Infor /Friendica page.
Also Users from the Instance are not informed either.
Would it make sense to add this feature (add the entry to the /friendica page and inform users via mail)?

Als Antwort auf Raroun • •The situation today was that after blocking the user and their content was deleted, it was no longer quite clear who is actually the troll.
It led to the fact that someone tagged someone who actually could not do anything about it and tapped "I do not like".
The removal of the posts of the blocked user I now see as very critical, because information is missing in the post history.
On the other hand, you can not leave some things just stand.
If it would at least be displayed on the /friendica page, the block and the reason for the block would be visible there.
I do not want to value the trolls, but rather inform those involved.
If there is another approach here, except to display this on the /friendica page, I would be grateful for any help 😀

If that would be possible - it´s a solution 😀
I don´t know if its even posible - but if it works - that would just be fine.
I thought about a banner, displayed at the page header like "User XXX got blocked from this server" or something like that.
But i am actually not deep inside the code and i don´t know if its even possible 😀
A Ticker or a Banner on the top for this kind of things would be great. Like "Instance Anounncements" - where you can leave messages as admin to the users. Something like a MOTD that disappears after an hour or 30 minutes or whatever 😀

As a new comment to the thread - like:
This post have ben moderated by Instance "XXXX" - a post of user XXX has been deleted locally.
Something like that.
