If I block someone, what will he see?

not sure about if they can see or not but why would you care? It seems this guy is an absolute nob so just block him.

Let him know you want some space, and when you want to play you'll ask him.

got this from a search.

"To specifically answer your question at hand, blocking someone will make it so you appear offline to them. No notifications are sent regarding your status or game-playing. They WILL still be on your friends list (and you'll be on their list), so you have easy access to unblock them at any time. Blocked players who are unfriended are still blocked, and they cannot send you another friend request."

You ask if he will see if you blocked him on Skype? From what I know he will see you as offline but I'm not sure what happens if he tries to message you anyway. Will it just go into 'Your message has not been delivered yet' or a different message I have no idea, sorry.

PS Oh, you asked about Steam... Well, I leave the answer anyway, maybe it will help someone else ;)

Murder his family

So.. you are saying you give a damn about a guy who leaves games and doesn't give a damn about others at all, he also forces others to let him play mid, destroys other players game experience, spams you a lot and you are still acting like you should be kind to him. That is some twisted logic out there, are you a girl by any chance? Do you enjoy watching him destroy your and others game experience, cuz I for sure don't like toxic players and I let them know they are fucked up and should change their behaviour instead of just watching them do whatever they like to do. Even if they are my close friends/family. With your attitude you will struggle in life, learn to stand up for yourself and others, life will get easier. Don't mind some psycho minded people, they are not worth it.

My advice - tell him what you told us about him and give give him an ultimatum - either he changes his behaviour or you block him. Get some balls.

when you don't enjoy playing with him, why don't you just remove, or block him? why does it matter if he can see it..you are too nice to such a person :D if he doesn't have friends, well..it's his fault not yours.

Block him NAO!

Why don't you try it out with an other friend. If you can connect to him in an other way,like skype. Ask him/her what she sees when you block him/her..

lost it at "fuck others i'm mid" haha lol.. i can share his same sentiments lol.. ahh my douchebag dota 1 days.. haha lol.. though I thought that everybody/everyone was also acting like a douche bag haha lol so I just decided that I would also just go safelane/offlane.. haha lol..

but yeah OP just tell him you want him to leave you alone for now and just want some space.. and that well basically he is annoying you..

here just copy paste this, it works for me: "sorry bro busy atm.. play later k.. sorry bro.. go play something else or this game without me for now.. ok thanks.. sorry bro"

trust me it works for me everytime haha lol.. but tbh I only have one or two real-life friends that I really have to use it on.. haha lol.. :(

edit: no i will not stop saying 'haha lol' fuck you.. I will do what I want BrainFagget.. +respect DC keep on keeping on brother

want Dota?

Didn't bother to really read the thread, but a friend and I were wondering the same thing and so we ran a few tests:

He blocked me while being online, so I could see him online and message him, but:
1) he didn't receive any message
2) his status didn't update, meaning he launched a game and I didn't see which since he still appeared as online

No notification whatsoever about the fact that he had blocked me or anything. So go on, block him, it's pretty safe.

I'd say - if you really care about other people you should block him on everything you have. You see, if he sees that people do not accept him for being a douche, then maybe he will change. You will help both him, and people that interact with him in the future. If you keep him on your friendlist, he will never learn, and you are just facilitate his bad behaviour.
TL;DR: You wanna help him, and everyone around him? Block him.

just block/delete the person everywhere. this will be the best for your nerves ^^

If you block him it will appear like you're permanently offline permanently on his friendslist. I'd personally just remove him, I heard of a couple ways that he can use to figure out whether or not you're actually online.

Say hem/her, Sorry, i dont want to play dota with you ! . if he/she said for what ? you can say for personal reason ! . try to be honest with him/her !

Tell him the truth.
If he annoys you and spams you, tell him he's annoying and should stop spam.
If you want to play alone, tell him you rather like to solo q.
And in case he won't stop with it, tell him you going to block him. He needs to understand that you are annoyed.

"...he is one of those 'fuck others, im mid'..."

Hmm, I see.
Try this: open a chat window with him and write СУКА БЛАТ ИДИ НАХУИ

Later

Rainbows and Unicorns. That is what they will see.

Explain to him that you hate that kind of spam, if he keeps doing it, just block him. I had someone doing a lot of spams, leading us to argue but contrary to your friend, mine was also playing with me and never left me in a game unless forced.

Look, like you I don't like being talked like that ingame, so when it happens, or I ignore or I block and remove from friends after warning several times.
