  You can’t unless you change your blog visibility to private and leave it private.

  We cannot block or delete subscribers from public blogs. Everyone on the internet can view and follow any public blog. That is in fact what the public designation means.

  You can change your blog visibility to “private” http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/ Please read this about public blogs that become private blogs > Blog Privacy and Subscribers > http://wpcommaven.wordpress.com/2011/09/05/blog-privacy-and-subscribers/

  Note that you have complete control over everything that’s posted to your blog via comment moderation
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/discussion-settings/#comment-moderation

  You don’t have to post any comment on your blog. Delete troll posts http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/03/27/how-to-starve-a-troll/
  and mark only spam as spam. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2013/01/24/mark-only-spam-as-spam/

  When will the blocking option become available? Please? My scenario is nearing a case of harassment.
