At least once a week, I see someone mentioning how they stumbled across another user who had them blocked, and they wonder why. Almost every time, at least one person in the comments says that they are on Mobile, and so they occasionally accidentally block people when they mean to send a Friend Request.

Currently, the Block Button is found directly beneath the Add/Remove Friend.

Suggestions Are:
a) Add a Pop Up box asking something like “Are you sure you wish to block this person?”
b) Move the Block button to either directly above or below the Report button.

Support.
As someone generally playing on mobile, this happens a bit too frequently where I accidentally block/unfriend someone unintentionally

I am on mobile/ios and the block and friend buttons are a great distance from each other so it's impossible to accidentally tap othe wrong one

I support, even though I’m on a very large screen, making it nearly impossible to press it

Some people have smaller screens with big fingers, making it easy to hit the button

I've done this so many times trying to gift people items as well. Heck, I've even done it when trying to just scroll down their profile (my mobile is a very smol screen and I have sausage fingers)

I support either suggestion, though I personally would prefer a confirmation for blocking (heck, if people don't like that for whatever reason could also just add a setting to remove the confirmation)

Fully supportive of this idea. While I've never had this incident happen before, there have been times I had to think twice on where the add friend and block buttons are. Nothing is more "Oh no, that's not what I meant to do" than accidentally tapping the block button...

Support! I was wondering this myself, and wanted to suggest it, but it's good to know this exists! I was thinking it would be better to just move the block button away from the friend button. Those contact button things are so tiny that fat fingers are inevitably going to click the wrong thing. I'd rather accidently click 'send a plushie' than end up blocking someone instead of friending them, especially when the green message at the top confirming the block went through appears so similar to the friendlist confirmation if you aren't paying attention. If I'm going to block someone, I'd rather it be intentional than potentially confusing/offending someone I wanted to be friends with.

Support. I often gift my friends things using the link, and it’s too close to the block button and accidentally block my friends
