the new +block button

is way too easy to hit when I'm trying to watch someone, or even just clicking around a page.

I've been intentionally blocked by people for stupid reasons too many times to think it worth anything to make this easier. The old way wasn't hard at all and you couldn't accidentally ban someone without meaning it.
I've only ever blocked my crazy ex and her sockpuppets.
OH FUCK
*UNBLOCK*
yeah.... NO WAIT FUCK THIS GUY
*BLOCK*
Reminds me of the days when I was a moderator and the dang mod interface had all these one click commands on it. I absolutely hated having the power to accidentally delete someone's thoughts or cause blocks/bans because my mouse wigged out.
Also reminds me of those stream sites where 'REPORT' is as easy to use as 'POST' or 'FULL SIZE'. It's like demanding your attention NOT to use. If I designed an interface, I would not put power play functions like that on one click ease situations. It should be in some way like those overly powerful buttons on a dash board...of a jet fighter. There...but has that little plastic cover that you've got to flip up in order to press. Kind of a safety against accidental usage.
