Does anyone think after blocking a person/couple that they will give them a second try and unblock them?? |

Nope, if I blocked them there's a reason for it. They are staying there. |

Only time I've ever unblocked someone I've regretted it so once you're on my block list you stay there and if I recognize it's someone I've blocked with a new profile back on the list they go |

It takes a lot for me to block someone, so they'd have to be a complete twat for me to block them in the first place. I don't think they'd deserve a second chance.

My block list is very small and all were put there for a very good reason, but I don't tend to just block because of forum spats and childish fallings out, or any other reason, although appreciate that as a single guy on here I have no need to.
Similarly I wouldn't expect, or want, to be removed from someone's block list - if they put me there it's their prerogative and really no skin off my nose in the slightest.
Those that matter to me are all that is important and with those people I know an adult conversation could be had about what had caused upset without resorting to blocking. |

I did when I first started using the forum. Was being far too delicate, grew up and unblocked them.
Now though if I've blocked they stay there. As it takes more for me to block in the first place |

It takes an awful lot for me to block anyone and this has hardly ever happened. Had three people on my block list. Two of them were unblocked as they went UNLOS 
The one remaining will continue blocked for as long as either of us is here. They brought it upon themselves. |

"Does anyone think after blocking a person/couple that they will give them a second try and unblock them??"
Nope. For those who haven’t been verified then keen for a pic, but won’t send theirs, BLOCKED and here in forums too. I like my peace as I’m not in fab for drama, have plenty of that to deal with at home and work already  |

I don't see the point in blocking people on a website. They can just make new profiles.
I give people a chance in real life, everyone has bad days.
Blocking just reminds me of hormonal teenagers falling out over what Karen supposedly said. Bless |

It's very obvious that it was aimed at someone specific otherwise why would you mention it was one person and it was their fault. You say it's no different from anything anyone else has written but I can't see anybody who has said how many people are on their blocklist. |

Being blocked doesn't necessarily mean that you've upset anybody.
I block for so many reasons, It totally depends on my mood sometimes and sometimes it can simply be because someone is to local or because I've looked at their profile and just thought I don't like what I see and we are not compatible. I don't use the block button as a punishment more as a filter. |

It does seem sad that he is obviously still obsessed with whatever happened. If i block, i immediately just forget about it and move on. I have no idea how many or who might be on my block list. Once blocked i just forget about the whole thing, i don't let these things clutter up my head space with bad thoughts. |

Nope.
If you're on our block list it's because...
A. You sent a disgusting/rude message.
B. You were pushy and wouldn't take no for an answer.
C. I was in a bad mood when I replied with no thanks and decided to block you too.
D. We're reeeeeeally put off by your pics.
Or E. You've said something in the forums to make me think you're a massive cunt.

Sorry but I disagree - others have said they have unblocked individual people and regretted it, I myself said there are very few on mine and are all there for a good reason, don't see Chill's post as being any different from those.
The *only* people making more of it than it actually is, and highlighting the perception it is about someone specific, are those of you that have piled on and picked at his post - otherwise it would have been a post the same as any other on the thread. |

I disagree with that as I blockEd people after saying “no thanks” to them to save them messaging me again down the line, I also tell them this is the reason for it. As others have said it can also be used as another filter |

I block lots of people on fab. Usually on the premise that I don’t want to sleep with them or they don’t want to sleep with me. Oh and fibbers..., I block a fair few of those too.
I get blocked often too. “Random person who I have never met and never will” meh. Life is far too short to let it worry anyone really. It’s fab life, it’s like park life but you mustn’t feed the pigeons |

Exactly that, if we're not for someone it saves us wasting their time in a year when we've forgotten. Less likely to block someone we've said no to but we'll chat with almost anyone.
Just another useful filter. |

I don't know why people do that because surely know the the person receiving the message can see the previous messages sent And if you try and send a message to someone who hasn't replied it gives you a reminder so I just don't understand it. |

I can't say I've found the same majority of the time.
Not sure why blocking people who are rude would make anyone appear a certain way to anyone, seems a normal reaction to me.
When you're being bombarded with messages telling you you're all the horrible names you can think of, that's quite upsetting for some people.
Totally disagree with your point, that's all. |

There are valid reasons to block someone..rude,aggressive (though you should report that)25 messages etc
Other people do it to give themselves a feeling a self satisfaction. |

I don't think so - it's certainly not listed as a benefit on the site supporter page, so would imagine it's available to all - to check just go to a profile and click the three lines top right and "Private Note" should be an option there |

I can't say I've found the same majority of the time.
Not sure why blocking people who are rude would make anyone appear a certain way to anyone, seems a normal reaction to me.
When you're being bombarded with messages telling you you're all the horrible names you can think of, that's quite upsetting for some people.
Totally disagree with your point, that's all."
Yes you have already said...Above
It’s a forum. People will always have different _iew points. Have a nice day |

"Not anymore. My memory is just dreadful so usually I can't remember why I've blocked someone. I used to unblock but after a few times of being reminded exactly why they were there I decided to trust my own judgement.
Little tip - add a Private Note to the profile before you block it - that way if you ever want to unblock you can see why you did in the first place
Don't you have to be a site supporter to do that?
I don't think so - it's certainly not listed as a benefit on the site supporter page, so would imagine it's available to all - to check just go to a profile and click the three lines top right and "Private Note" should be an option there "
No it's just for site supporters. I just checked and it says "gimme money to use that feature you stingy old crone".  |

"A block usually means you are doing something right. Getting upset about a random on the tinternet pressing a button to stop you contacting them when the chances are you never will anyway is funny and says more about them then you
Really?
You wouldn't block someone who was abusive or rude?

"There are a lot of nasty aggressive people about though it makes total sense to avoid and block. The site even advises you to do that.
There are valid reasons to block someone..rude,aggressive (though you should report that)25 messages etc
Other people do it to give themselves a feeling a self satisfaction.
Why are you look at it is any reason somebody blocks is valid because it's their reason."
Is there any reason for them to tell you? |

"Does anyone think after blocking a person/couple that they will give them a second try and unblock them??"
No |

If we message someone and that message is deleted without reply, then normally we block them to stop us messaging again.
so there would not be any reason to unblock and message again |

No a block is a block if you have to use it then no need to remove it. |

Wow oh wow. Never did I expect such a response to this simple question.
It seems it’s split fairly in favour of block don’t remove.
Block maybe try again, last chance. But be aware that my finger is hovering over that block button.
I know I’m on several if not many block lists. But hey sometimes it’s for the best. As I can be a bit full on.
Or the main reason I think is my lived in face. Lol. |

very rarely have i unblocked someone. Maybe three times in 14 years |

Our block list is extremely small and is only used as a filter we have never had any issues with anyone on this site to make us block them .Maybe we are extremely lucky or just extremely easy going nothing really bothers us .. |

Rarely do I block anybody, there has to be a good reason for me to do so, for example rude behaviour in forums or in messages to me would be a reason. Not so much about second chances for me but to avoid further irritation, so no, I do not unblock as a rule.

If someone ends up on my blocklist then that's it - I never unblock. |
Reply privately (thread closed by moderator) | |
I have a terrible memory so nope, if I've blocked someone it's for a reason, even if I can't remember what that was |

Years ago, before I discovered private notes, I'd sometimes block women or couples I'd written to and received no response.... In order to ensure I didn't accidentally forget I'd already tried to make contact.
Now block list is mostly men who see 'bi curious' and don't read profile, one woman who demanded money and a couple who turned out to be cheating on their actual partners. I won't be unblocking any of those. |

Yes because I also block just because I get bored of pictures in my feed, so that person hadn’t done anything wrong but I just have no other way of getting rid of updates.

Nope. Once on my block list, always on my block list. |

Removed a couple, when I put them on the list because I thought their comments on these forums were phobic in some way. Then I remember they bloody well were phobic, so went straight back on the list |

No block list decision will be reversed, everyone is there for a good reason and individuals I have no intention of ever communicating or interacting with |

" Why is it inappropriate? They haven't been named.
My thought entirely - was a completely open post that could be about anyone and is no different from what others have said "
What total and utter nonsense. It's a rather pathetic _iew arguing in a subtextual way.
If your argument stands up, then I feel some people on here need to get a serious grip a of themselves. Others should mature and stop empowering them. Be the person / people the portray that they are. That should be the ok, shouldn't it as I'm not naming anyone am I
Incidentally, my block list is long and I don't care to reconsider. They are on there for a reason, even if I forget why they were added in the first place. |

I dont need a block list, happy for others to block me, its of no concern
I keep a very tight group of select close friends all within a local meet distance and happy to remain that way
so I am happy to chat, but will not risk damaging what is already established with a group of close nit friends. |

If I get blocked I try and drink the odd pint of Guinness.
