@anon below...
1) Actually, genius, people can change their IP any time they want. And no shit, people can't ban anyone from viewing their channel, that's why the suggestion is here, to make that choice available. It's like you haven't seen Twitter's or Facebook's blocking system. It's ridiculous they haven't implemented this already.
2) They said "they do nothing about it" he's implying Twitch does nothing about it. Obviously they've resorted to reporting the person to Twitch, and they're neglecting the situation. And if it is the case that they won't punish their partners, people should start taking legal action against Twitch, or start speaking out against them. And you're really suggesting to become a partner? Like, you think it's that easy to just become a partner, just like that? How old are you? And no, no one should have to leave the site because someone else harasses them out of it. Twitch should stop being scumbags, and start moderating their partners if people are sending reports against them. Otherwise they're fully (and legally) responsible for what happens. They are partners by contract after all.
Really, they should being doing both. Allow account blocking and IP bands, to make it that much harder for these creeps to do what they do. Or even better, one function that does both.

Disgusting how neglected this is.
"Twitch has implemented a blocking system. It's called, well, blocking." No, they didn't. Banning from chat is not blocking, dummy. And yes, banning them from anyone seeing what they're saying at all is better then just blocking yourself from seeing them with /ignore! Also, who the fuck said we wanted the block to ban them from the site all together? And why the fuck do you sound like you're defending the attackers here? You're truly just here to argue since you're clearly not processing what's even happening here. And so what if Twitch is a private company? They are running a social network for the most juvenile malicious scene on the plant. They should know better than to not add privacy tools. And yes, if a Twitch partner is harassing people, they are at LEAST morally obligated to take action.
Once again dipshit, banning from chat does not equal blocking them from your profile.
Blocking them would not ban them from Twitch (now I see we have 2 idiots who made the same assumption).
/ignore is useless in this situation and is essentially really only used when you're viewing someone else's channel and there's someone chatting you don't want to see.
If you are against this, you're part of the problem. But it's fine, since with your attitude, it's inevitable you'll be targeted eventually, and you'll see how bad we need this.
