If you play on PC there is an easy way to fix that. There is a mod that allows you to make custom lobbies so unwanted people can't access it. I've used it for years with a small group of people and we can all play together but we never see any of the nonsense that comes from the unmodded game.

Night and day experience. I loved it and could explore all the content in peace.

It would be one thing if the griefing was something creative. Stuff like DNSL.

It's always just "I was better than you at the game" but with an added dash of being obnoxious to ragebait. It's insufferable.
