Blacklist
How to stop viewers from suggesting specific games, and how to block adult games across all your boards.
The Blacklist page lists games viewers cannot suggest to you. It also has one switch, Block adult games, that refuses a whole category. Both apply to every one of your boards.
Note
The dashboard is closed beta only. See Closed beta and pricing.
Blacklist a game
You add games to the blacklist from the inbox. There is no way to add one from the Blacklist page itself.
- Open Inbox.
- Find a pending suggestion for the game.
- Select Blacklist.
NextQuest rejects that suggestion, rejects any pending suggestions for the same game on your other boards, and adds the game to your list. The viewers who suggested it are told you passed on it. See Suggestions inbox.
From then on, a viewer who tries to suggest the game sees "This streamer isn't taking suggestions for this game."
A blacklist does not touch games already on your boards, and it does not stop you from adding the game to a board yourself.
Remove a game from the blacklist
Each row on the Blacklisted games list has a Remove button. A toast confirms that the game can be suggested again. Because blacklisting also rejects the suggestion, your Re-suggest wait still applies. With the default wait of 0 days, viewers can suggest the game again at once.
Block adult games
Block adult games is a toggle under Adult games. When it is on, viewers cannot suggest games that IGDB tags with the Erotic theme. They see "This streamer isn't taking suggestions for adult games."
The toggle saves as soon as you change it, and a toast confirms. Three details apply:
- The check runs when a viewer suggests a game. Suggestions already in your inbox and games already on your boards stay where they are.
- Blocked games are not added to your blacklist, so the list stays short.
- Games the IGDB tag does not cover are not blocked. Use the blacklist for those.
The toggle is off by default.
