"People who block you on here because you said something in forums they didn’t like or agree with, are extremely judgemental and full of arrogance. Do you agree or disagree? " I very often block forum members if I have left a comment I feel they won't like.....for example disagreeing with their opinion, telling them if I think they are being a dick or a cunt on a thread ect ect. Or if I find their comments offensive. The reason I do this is because I don't want a PM argument with anyone, I prefer to keep it to the forum. Also I definitely wouldn't want to meet them. I haven't blocked the OP though, I,m rather partial to Bananas XXX | |||

"People who block you on here because you said something in forums they didn’t like or agree with, are extremely judgemental and full of arrogance. Do you agree or disagree? " No. My understanding of judgemental is displaying signs of being adversely critical, fault-finding, condemnatory etc. Use use the word 'extremely' as well which imo indicats a pursuit of something, so implying they are pursusing a judgemental attitude towards someone. Again blocking someone doesn't display any of these definitions, No. All it means is that they don't want you contacting them. That on here is most likely to be simply a filter. | |||

"People are free to block others for their own reasons. It saves time and effort further down the line, from receiving contact from others that they'd prefer no to. Accepting that not everyone wants to know or be contacts with everyone else is a fairly standard part of human life and the forum/Fab aren't any different. Use time wisely, focus on where positive opportunity lies." Totally this People have also been known to send snotty messages to others off the back of forum posts,blocking stops this. | |||

"Its pretty pointless blocking someone on the forums for a view they've posted as you can still see the shit they post. I have blocked when people have started messaging nonsensical or privileged behaviour from the reply privately button on the forum. I can understand blocking if you've had shitty messages from someone regarding the forums. " This makes sense , there is a logic in doing this . We block local people who we have no intention of meeting , and those people who arrange a time and a place to meet us , and then don’t show up . If someone blocks someone for something they have posted on a forum , it’s a different story though . As you say , it can’t stop you having to read their posts , nor them from interacting on what you say on the forum . So what’s the point ? And this goes back to the op , which asks if we thing it’s arrogant . Of course we will all see it differently , but my take is that if something he feels strongly enough that they want to exercise their right to block me for a forum post , fill your boots . Yes I think they’re being arrogant as in their mind they think they have some kind of upper hand or edge by doing so . For me , I don’t give one tiny little bit of a shit whether someone thinks I’m worthy of a block . Although I counter block , I think the majority who have blocked me may have me blocked for months before I know they’ve blocked me . I’ve way more important things to do than search every thread to see if anyone has blocked me . And when I do find someone who has blocked me , the fact that they did so means absolutely nothing to me , other than the fact that I will be wasting a few seconds of my time counter blocking them . Threads such as this one are interesting to see how many on it have blocked . There’s a few that have , so they’ve been countered . | |||

"Yes I think they’re being arrogant as in their mind they think they have some kind of upper hand or edge by doing so . I don’t see how that fits the definition of arrogance." Well my definition of arrogant is someone who is full of their own importance , so by blocking someone and getting the upper hand or edge ( in their mind ) , over the person they’ve blocked gives then an inflated ego , which is another arrogant trait . How would you define arrogance ? | |||

How would you define arrogance ? " I would agree that arrogance is defined by self-importance and superiority, but it doesn’t follow that the action of blocking someone is arrogant. Even if you allow the assumption that it is done to have some sort of upper hand, because it has prohibited one-to-one communication (which is an assumption you’ve made without any evidence) that’s still got nothing to do with an inflated ego. It’s got quite a lot to do with your own insecurities about people’s reasons for blocking you, but it’s best not to project. | |||

"Yes I think they’re being arrogant as in their mind they think they have some kind of upper hand or edge by doing so . I don’t see how that fits the definition of arrogance." You wouldn't. | |||

"I do find it chuckle worthy when another man blocks me. I'm not looking to meet men, so blocking me seems kind of pointless. Especially if it's from a forum thread or post. Blocking doesn't stop you seeing their future posts, again, seems a little daft.... If I find I've been blocked I counter block. Ner Ner ne Ner Ner.

I block people who have messaged me and I don't want to meet. It saves a pointless dialogue starting up... Like.. Them....meet me? Me....too far away... Them....I can come to you?... Me....I don't host... Them....Car sex?... Me ..No thanks Them.....Hotel? Me....No sorry.. Ect...ect... The block button I use for anyone I definitely don't want to meet for whatever reason. | |||

"Well my definition of arrogant is someone who is full of their own importance , so by blocking someone and getting the upper hand or edge ( in their mind ) , over the person they’ve blocked gives then an inflated ego , which is another arrogant trait . How would you define arrogance ? I would agree that arrogance is defined by self-importance and superiority, but it doesn’t follow that the action of blocking someone is arrogant. Even if you allow the assumption that it is done to have some sort of upper hand, because it has prohibited one-to-one communication (which is an assumption you’ve made without any evidence) that’s still got nothing to do with an inflated ego. It’s got quite a lot to do with your own insecurities about people’s reasons for blocking you, but it’s best not to project." The question posed by the op was about whether we think that being blocked for something we said on the forum . I’m only commenting with regard to that reason , and that reason alone . I’ve already said we block for other reasons , just as most people do . But this thread is about blocking for something that’s been posted on the forum so to think I am insecure in looking for reasons why people block , on a thread that makes it clear what the reason is , is nonsensical . They block me for something I’ve said , I obviously know that , so there’s no insecurity there . They will no doubt have read the op ,as I have , and with any luck will only comment on the question in hand . | |||

However, you have assumed that the person blocking has some thoughts of ‘having the upper hand’. 1) You don’t know that, and 2) That still doesn’t constitute arrogance. | |||

"I got blocked today...bahha. ..but we won't speak on the forums again as this "so called calling out" should be stopped altogether as it is just one person making it obvious that they are intolerant to the others view ...now that would be a good change in just avoiding each other " I think it's been discussed above. It's not necessarily a case of being intolerant, but more a case if not wanting that person to know or see anything about you as you have differences. I still debate with those I've blocked. The proof is in the pudding by virtue of the fact that they know they're blocked...they looked! Being intolerant of others is an everyday occurrence...how you handle your response is what's important. | |||
