Figured there was something fishy for a while now and it seems I finally figured it out.

So if your meta squad of 40+ people that you’re usually join is doing its round and one guy that you have blocked because he’s a cunt, joins it before you do, you don’t see the entire squad and can get fucked. you can still join via /squadjoin, but only if you know that it’s there.

Time to run around spamming slurs to get on as many block lists as possible and then join squads, making them invisible to others.

That HAS got to be a bug.

Edit: So I’ve tested it a bit and it seems like it’s been turned on its head. A commander blocking you does not block you from seeing his squad in LFG. But someone joining that squad that YOU have blocked, immediately removes that squad from LFG for you. Like, no refresh needed. Instantly gone for you.

Fun fact: If someone blocks YOU, you still see the squad in LFG. But as soon as YOU block someone, THAT squad where he is hin gets removed from your LFG.

Fucking hell.

    Hah. That’s pretty bad.

    That was already how it worked if you had the commander blocked, you would still be able to see and join the squads of commanders that blocked you but not people you chose to block. Backwards-ass functionality. Hopefully if they fix this bug they also let a commander’s block list prevent people from /sqjoining or clicking in from LFG.
