are generally on the forums so the idea of being blocked by those who are on them is laughable to me.
Of course I do my best not to leave bodies scattered around this place in my wake (laugh at that one) when I appear here.
BUT the threat of being blocked! Are you kidding!
(Be yourself warts and all and if that does need any refining? Do it for yourself!)
I don't give a hoot if I'm blocked on the more intimate side of fab either. |

Ah there’s always people that block you for reasons known or unknown.
I’ll look at a random account that I’ve never interacted with in any way .. blocked. There’s no rhyme nor reason to it, maybe you’ve said something in the forums they don’t like, maybe you’re not their type and they don’t want you to message them, maybe it’s Sandra in accounts and she doesn’t want you to recognise her on here!
It doesn’t really matter in the scheme of things as if they’ve blocked you then you are clearly never going to be compatible or meet so it’s no loss to either party is it!   |

I am very much myself on the forum, so if someone doesn't like the me they see on here they are highly unlikely to like the me they'd meet in real life.
Pre-emptive blocking is great, saves me messaging someone who doesn't want it  |

Yep: being blocked on the forums is laughable to you. The threat of being blocked - Are you kidding. Don’t give a hoot about being blocked.
For someone not bothered about being blocked etc you certainly talk about it a lot. Projection? Protesting too much!? |

Reason for thread is I have noticed a few times what can be thought of as gangblocking or maybe 'group referrals' being done here
and held over others to force them into line. |

Blocking is nothing but a positive feature on Fab. It seems the thought of anyone blocking you for any reason is upsetting you.
I block many people I see on the forum for a myriad of reasons, all positive for both parties. |

This thread is done to encourage others to be themselves on the forums and not to be swayed easily by the threat of being blocked here.
Me I don't approach forumites for my personal business so have no idea who has blocked me.
If I am on the forums I engage with others about threads.

This thread isn't about the blocking feature itself (which is a good one) but how it is handled by groups of people together on threads via the forum. |

Coming from a person who DOES block people from the forum. It's those who are wildly inappropriate or ones who I've reported for having fake pictures. Or if it's someone that has started a thread asking for advice, I'll often share my thoughts but then block because I don't have time for that in my inbox.
However I won't bring it to light that I've blocked you. And if you can't see my profile or message me then take it as a polite "no thanks, not for me".
*here comes a wave of views to check if I've blocked them - should I get my gooch out?* |

Thing is though I've never been influenced by others on here in regard to blocking anyone. I'm more than capable of making that decision myself.
In fact I've blocked a number of seemingly popular forumites for all manner of reasons including flogging dead horses.
It has nothing at all to do with whether or not they might meet me. That's not how I do fab.
Any opinion I give on here is mine and mine alone. |

I’m a bit confused. Has someone threatened to block you? And as far as I am aware people aren’t allowed to mention who they’ve blocked on the forums so where’s the power trip? |

So just reading through the thread with permission from other people, I’ve checked with them first, it seems you are saying that just one person has formed an opinion of you that you have found that others have blocked you also? So therefore you think there is ‘gangblocking’ (new word to me).
Are you suggestions that other people shouldn’t talk to other people about people that could potentially lead to aggressive attitudes, personal safety, time wasters etc? |

Maybe because you have an aggressive writing style that always has a sting in it so anyone reading it will respond in similar fashion. Your threads don't leave much room for discussion. |

Do you mean the sort of threads that go a bit off kilter and get a bit aggro, then someone will say “well that’s another one for the block list”? If so that isn’t a hive mentality it’s mainly because someone on the thread has shown themselves to be a bit of a twunt and probably deserves s block |

SO? Is the conclusion of the matter this?
NO ONE is allowed to make public WHO they are blocking via a thread on the forums.
OR is that sidestepped BECAUSE no name has actually been mentioned BUT we ALL know WHO is being referred to.
Like sleight of hand. |

"When people say they won't meet people from the forums it makes me think they think there's something wrong with people on the forums which would include them, yes?Chill out Jojo..and nice to see you back.

I haven't been anywhere either, you just haven't noticed me

I crossed your mind why? Are you the lady once known as Jojo Fabuloso?
If not sorry, my mistake."
Yes, that's me. I reverted back to my original name. |

I don't block people from the forums. If they are blocked it would only be because they messaged to meet me and I didn't want them accidentally messaging me again. I wouldn't know they used the forums. |

A quick question. Why wouldn't you meet people from the forum?
I would prefer to meet people who I see or interact with on the forum. You get a feel for the person and their personality and most of the time know they can hold a conversation. |

"You don't want to meet people who are on the forums despite regularly being on the forums yourself? "
I have not actively gone out of my way to meet people here.
Ask them.
I have made a few friends though! |

For me it's pretty low coming into a place of chat and directly fishing.
If someone connects with others through that chat that's fine.

You find what difficult?
I see the forums as a place to talk about my/our surroundings or have a laugh (it has happened!) IF I wanted to meet others from here (as my focus) I would do things differently but I don't. |

The one word I use most on here is consistency. That applies to how people portray themselves through their bio and pics. If they aren't consistent we won't be chatting.
Forum engagement is another layer of consistency. There are many amazing profiles with wonderful text and intriguing pics who become immediately ugly as soon as they open their mouths or post on the forums.
It's highly unlikely I will ever meet anyone who isn't on the forums because I get a more rounded idea of who they are and more importantly who and what they aren't by their forum engagement. |

That's fine and I admire your personal choice. |

"How do you block someone from the forum ?
Click on their profile and block them.
That's normal, thought there was a way to block the forums too "
Don’t think so. You can in chatrooms and it can mess up conversations to the point there is no point. Don’t believe it’s the same here. |
