I'm having this issue as well. I'm being harassed by an idiot republican mccain supporter who wants to harass me because I'm supporting Obama. I don't follow them. They don't follow me. I cannot block them anymore.

Do you think this solves the problem? Mark it as solved
A comment on the problem "Give us back the BLOCK feature, please!" in Twitter:

@modemlooper Actually no - that's misleading. You forget that people can @reply to you and it will come through to your feed, even if you aren't following them. Trolls can use this to harass you. The only way to prevent them from doing it is to block them or turn off the reply feature for EVERYONE who doesn't follow you. This defeats the purpose. We had a block button a few days ago, and now its gone....TURN IT BACK ON. – joelhousman, on October 28, 2008 00:14
