While I am not a web developer who knows HTML on a deep level, I would assume that this could require a massive update to the site to change the definition from the old one to the new one.  As for how the extent of those updates would take I can't really give a solid answer.

Far as what prompted to make this thread, I won't go into a whole ethos argument, but I will explain it as is.

The user in question has followed me after the fact that I blocked him a second time a little before I was advised to ignore him by support and the admins. Seeing that we're following the old definitions I still receive notifications from him posting on my news posts through my creators profile. It crossed a very personal line for me the moment the user we are talking about decided to bring his problem with me on a post I made concerning an art piece I made about 9/11 which I feel is an escalation of the situation on said user's part, even if it's inadvertent.

The way I look at it, it's bad enough that the user I have a problem with is still attempting to contact me despite my efforts to block him on itch.io. And while I don't feel it would be entirely appropriate to talk about in detail publicly, I will say for the record that the user has attempted to contact me outside of Itch.io on my own wordpress website several times which I am willing to back up if need be. Might not be an issue that itch.io has to deal with since that is some what of a personal matter, but it is related to the ongoing conflict.

I'm choosing to not give any further written response the user in question upon informing him that I would be banning him from future newspost, and I may contact support in regards to that matter since, even though the admins see this as just a case of trolling, is indeed a case of harassment for no justifiable reason other than a unsupervised brat wanting his way and I have a hell of a lot more to say how I see this outside of my concerns with how this whole situation is being handled.

TL;DR Version: Blocking and ignoring this user has been ineffective and I do not want him contacting me any further.

Please stop posting the names of our staff members everywhere. Based on what I see, you’re having a dispute with this person on itch.io and other platforms. I’m sorry this person is disrupting your life, but itch.io is does not exist as a mechanism for you to punish people you are having disputes with. Posting the personal information of our staff members to try to push us to take action against someone you are fighting with is not the kind of behavior we want to endorse, and may end up in getting you banned, regardless of the behavior of the other account.

I also want to reiterate:

Please do not try to collect personal information about other accounts to claim they should be banned based on a technicality. Trolls will lie to you to get a reaction out of you. It’s not your job to try to police the age of users on our platform.

As I have advised to you elsewhere, please use the report tool to on this other account’s posts to highlight their activity to our team so they may take action if necessary.

Thanks
