What it does
Introduces a proper Block and Flag experience, giving participants simple tools to protect themselves from unwanted or uncomfortable interactions. 🛡️
If someone is blocked, they are effectively removed from that participant’s networking experience. They won’t appear in search, recommendations, or participant lists, and they won’t be able to message, show interest, or request a meeting with the person who blocked them.
Blocking applies across the application, so participants don’t need to block the same person again at future events. The blocked person is never notified.
Participants can also flag a profile to report inappropriate behaviour.
Why it matters
đź”’ Give participants real control
Blocking actually prevents further interaction, rather than simply hiding or skipping a profile.
đź‘€ Keep unwanted profiles out of sight
Blocked participants are removed from networking and discovery areas, helping create a safer and more comfortable event experience.
đźš© Make it easier to report concerns
Flagging gives participants a clear way to report profiles when something doesn’t feel right.
⚙️ Easy to manage
A dedicated Blocked Profiles area lets participants see who they’ve blocked and unblock someone if they change their mind.
The result
A safer networking experience where participants have clear, effective controls over who can find and interact with them, helping organisers create an event environment where people feel more comfortable connecting.
