If someone blocks you, you can't see any of their postings. Can they see yours?

No but they can unblock also without you knowing.
There are some complicated techniques that will allow you to block them back without seeing their name though

Thanks. If you can't see their name, I'm not sure how you might block them. Not that I do. I don't generally block. Seems pointless. Just ignore.
[c=#BF0080]If you know the username then you can go to your block list, which is in account settings and enter their name and it will block them back. I always block back if I can because I rather not play the block unblock game which some like to do here lol.[/c]

@pinkrainbowkisses: Ok, thanks. I'm sure the person who blocked me is Ok though. Always asked good Qs, so perhaps she has the wrong end of a stick. I'd rather reconcile. Life's too short.

@pinkrainbowkisses: You are a rather sophisticated user here. Sometimes the biggest challenge is finding those that block you secretly. The advantage is to the one that blocks first.

@Pfuzylogic: Why all this 'blocking'? Sometimes words are misunderstood or read different ways. Can't see the point in blocking out half the world.
@Pfuzylogic: [c=#BF0080]Sometimes it's obvious when they block me.. but usually it's when someone is mentioned on a thread and I can't see their comment then I know I'm blocked..[/c]

@Valentine: [c=#BF0080]I have never blocked anyone for disagreeing with me or misunderstanding.. there's plenty of other reasons. I come here to have fun.. I don't want to deal with people I normally wouldn't associate with in real life. So I'm not going to here. [/c]

@pinkrainbowkisses: Yes - I see the point about the 'real life' side of it. I have only ever blocked one person, and then only for a short while.

@Valentine: Once a person initiates a block they can accomplish some mischief.

Note the current activity on "MrsNel" and the speed with which it is resolved. Please note the sarcasm. Someone blocked and then imitated her in a less then flattering way.

@Pfuzylogic: I saw her comment. Not sure how someone can pass themselves off as her though - the name would not be available, or am I being 'sooo naive'...
Pfuzylogic · M
@Valentine: Witness the fake posts. The "name" is available, this looks like an intelligent troll that she aggravated who has a sympathetic swell of support because she has blocked so many.
@Pfuzylogic: [c=#BF0080]I reported that because I couldn't understand how two accounts could have the exact same username. Apparently, it had a 2 beside it when the account was made but then was able to change it.. seems like there's a bit of a flaw in the system. There was another account that did the same thing with another user.[/c]

@pinkrainbowkisses: That is such a loop-hole. Needs sorting. Ok, I'm the one with the cute little doggie - and I think I 'stood up for you' prk. Think I got blocked for it too :(
[c=#BF0080]I just checked and the account with the same exact username has been banned.[/c]

@pinkrainbowkisses: I agreed that there is an exploit in the system that this troll took advantage of.

I always had to fend off OWTFWN on EP and now here. He trolled my pro BLM posts. I have seen so many identities have the term "sheeple" as their last phrase when he quits using the identity, "young girl" identities have been a specialty of his.

Expediency in "arresting" these identities will be key so that it will take more work to create the identities then to stop them.

@pinkrainbowkisses: Glad it happened, now she must restore her good name which I hope she does even though I am blocked.
Valentine · M
@Pfuzylogic: If she's Ok, she will hopefully do this quickly.
Pfuzylogic · M
@Valentine: I don't think she has a clue what the troll acted like.
@Pfuzylogic: [c=#BF0080]I know what you mean about that imgreywlf, OWTFWN character.. I have all the accounts I know about blocked.. even the female ones. I'm sure theres more.

I have her blocked.. I always block back because I'm not interested in playing the block unblock game lol. I just reported it because I didn't want that happening to me or anyone else.[/c]
Valentine · M
@Pfuzylogic: Well, she's posted 'nice' answers to my stuff, so hopefully we move on...
