I know this is a subject most would rather avoid, so I'll keep it brief:
@Vindicator, owner of /v/pizzagate (PG) and I have managed to corner those attacking us, and cause many to leave/delete their usernames in favor of new usernames that haven't admitted to or supported the bad actors here. Really, really bad people are here to disrupt YOUR sub, and also PG.
One of the bad guys' favourite attacks is on Voat itself, making claims about who owns it, and how it's a honeypot and owned by some bad people. We know that's not the case, because Q HIMSELF SENT USERS HERE.
@Vindicator just posted an amazing exposé on them, linking new names to ESOTERICshade and kevdude. The links are just the tip of the iceberg on each of those usernames, but suffice it to say, they're the worst alphabet clowns ever exposed on this site.
Go to @Vindicator's submission. It's spectacular. Really, truly a testament to his dedication and a scathing indictment of what the bad actors are really here to do.
The links above may be too much to digest. You may think of them as "drama", and that's okay. Consider that every part of following Q is exactly that: drama. While you might not like this kind of confrontation or confusing stuff at home, this is your battleground. THE SAME BAD GUYS ARE RIGHT HERE IN YOUR BACK YARD. Why not spare a few clicks to make your website a better place?
What I want you to think about is all of these bad actors HATE that I use my mod tools to keep them from destroying this sub. They claim that "if the users didn't want us here, they could downvote us", and they truly believe that until that happens, they're welcome to shit all over any sub at any time.
For those of you wanting to do your part, read the paragraph above. Read it again.
Vote.
Vote some more.
When you get done reading what you've come here to read, vote again.
When you refresh /v/greatawakening/new and don't see a new post, go to /v/all/new and vote.

How do I block the pornographic pictures from Joe Mc...? I touched on his name and thought I blocked his site but I keep seeing these offensive pictures from him.

Not 100% sure, but if you click on his name and click "block", then click on his subverses and click "block", it should remove most of his posts from your view.

Blocking a user won't hide their submissions, but it will prevent them from pinging/messaging you directly and will collapse all of their comments by default and will kill any reply notifications coming from them.
As an added step, if necessary, one can suppress crosslink notifications (from @SearchVoat's crosslink bot) for a specific user if they circumvent a block by spamming links to your comments/submissions.
Blocking a subverse will indeed (or should, might be broken as of last code rollback) hide all submissions to that subverse when browsing v/all, but there's no way to hide submissions if you are browsing the subverse a given submission is posted to (regardless of whether the author is blocked by you); just have to scroll past those.
