I would never block anyone on the forums....

I like to read different opinions on subjects because that is the only way.... I can learn something new....

But on the forums you have different rules....

If a woman post something like... is my profile ok with nothing but nude pics.. she will get hugs and men queuing up to tell her she is beautiful....

If a man posted this he will be ripped to shreds...

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

 

By (user no longer on site)  over a year ago

No, purely because I can still see what they post, they can see what I post and we can interact with each other on the forums, despite the blocking.

If they sent me messages however and we interacted outwith the forums and they did something to earn a block, then sure. But I wouldn’t block them for posting an offensive thread for instance

There and to the left a bit

I've blocked three people in my time here - two of them have been through forum heads where they displayed frankly vile homophobia towards me and others on a bi thread.

I've also been blocked by other forum users for one reason or another - usually because they're not looking for someone like me - no skin off my nose either way.

Just remember, once a year, usually Christmas, to clear out your blocked list and give them all a chance to redeem themselves. It's the charitable Fab thing to do that doesn't cost you money.

Unless they've been an abusive prick. Then fuck them, they can stay in purgatory

I did this a few weeks ago. Spent about half an hour unblocking 200 or so people. I’ve blocked the majority of them again already

200! Sorry to hear that you had so many tossers. I presume that is people who ignored profile and sent drivel, or does it include a lot because of forum posts? Just curious

Wow! That's staggering and kinda depressing at the same time.

Well, fair play to you for giving them all a second chance, despite some abusing it again

No, probably not. I've *been* blocked a couple of times.

The most recent was for answering an advice thread in a way the poster didn't want to hear. Shame, really - I quite liked her and would have met her, given the opportunity, but I accidentally bruised her ego by giving a (possibly poorly phrased) straight answer when she actually just wanted some attention. Lesson learned!

If I felt strongly about something then yes I would block. I have blocked and I once counter blocked. The forums are no different to any other area of Fab in that sense, you will like/be attracted to some and not others, you will get on with some and not others.

Rarely, can count on one hand the number I have ever blocked. You have to be a proper tool for me to bother. I find it weird when you get blocked by people you've never had any interaction with though.

Sometimes the best advice is the one that people don’t always want to hear.

As long as people aren’t rude (and are within the rules ) I’d prefer they say what they mean rather than pussyfooting around women in fear of being blocked....

I wouldn't be surprised if I had thousands on my block list. When I don't hide my profile, I must block about 30 people every day...

Yeah I'm sure you wouldn't be able at access the first person you ever blocked,a bit like the messages that drop off the page after so many.

Why? I block for many reasons. If I block someone, I've no intention of meeting them, so it saves my inbox being clogged to by people messaging over and over, and messaging again a few months down the line, etc.

It leaves my inbox open to actual friends, people that want to ask genuine things, and people I may meet. Saves me so much time.

No I don't block people from the forum.

There are those that say they block forum users if they don't like their opinions/comments on the forum. That serves no purpose.

The only reason i'd block someone is if they sent unwanted messages more than once.

I often find I'm blocked by fellow forum users.

I'm nosey, so often check out others profiles, never contact them, maybe fab a photo, and If I revisit a profile because I forgot I've seen it before, I often find I'm blocked. Just the Fab way I think.

mines the guys or girls that show they have no respect for others. Or are abusive to people that comment differently to their views on threads.

One last week for instance a guy that if someone disagreed was making personal comments about people's profiles.
