Do you block people you don't like?

Avoid them? or else?
I blocked the EP mafia as soon as I got here.. other then that it鈥檚 just the repetitive potential sex offenders I block
@BlueMetalChick I seem to recall her and Nate- and not getting along. I never minded him that much- Odd how people have acute memories like that. Remembering what others forgot. Odder still is the denial. She went to AM for a while after EP closed.
@BlueMetalChick Didn't Kitten take that broussard chick and another with her. I forget the other. I hate Broussard.

@Elandra77 Broussard is like a walking stereotype. You ever seen the movie "Dead Presidents?" Do you remember the Black chick who Curtis was dating, she had a sister who was a big time activist. And the activist sister was the typecast "I'm a reformed intellectual upwardly mobile person who is doing a lot for my community because I got a bachelor's degree and that makes me hella smart and dangerous to the establishment." That's like Broussard. Except without the "young" part of it cos she's like 47.
Nah. Live and let live.

I have only blocked the people who have sent me unwanted nude pics.

@Thevy29 He blocked me! Can you imagine?
Thevy2941-45, M
That's his loss. The man has no sense of humour.@Serenitree

@Thevy29 I know, right? What a fool.

Rare for me to block people.
I mean I figure even the daft and ignorant should have the chance to express themselves.
However I've no time for trolls or those who get personally offensive.

I haven't blocked anyone yet. I feel like you can learn something new even from those you disagree with or find annoying. That's why I keep all my doors opened.

@Dan193 I understand, but the ones I'm talking about......if you saw the conversations......

Yesterday, there was one who was, as I said, confrontational. I thought perhaps he misread what I'd said. He hadn't. He was baiting me. And he kept talking down to me, as if I was the moron and calling me Hun. I told him call me Hun, once more and 馃憥
He immediately sent a pm saying Hi Hun. He was immediately blocked. Public forum is one thing. Invade my space, and I throw them out.
Dan19331-35, M
@Serenitree oh I didn't see the conversation, but I understand, some could be really invasive and unnecessarily rude.
SerenitreeF
@Dan193 exactly. Thank you.

Depends. If they stay away from me and my posts I just avoid them. But usually they don鈥檛. So I block them in order to enjoy my time here. I鈥檓 not obligated to spend my time here quarreling. I also block racists and sexists. I make [b]no[/b] apologies for doing so. 馃槖
@MikefromEP I think we鈥檝e established that鈥檚 not me. I have several posts where I鈥檝e spoken out very clearly.
MikefromEP51-55, M
@bijouxbroussard We have. This is true. But stepping up is the next step
@MikefromEP Where, in your opinon, have I not ? 馃

Not always. Some, I don't like but I begrudgingly respect their opinions. I wouldn't block those types. I block people whose content I need out of my way so that I can read the more interesting posts (or at least the less annoying ones).
MikefromEP51-55, M
Block me once.. shame on me. Block me twice.. shame on you
MikefromEP51-55, M
@Serenitree I never blocked you either :)
SerenitreeF
@MikefromEP I know. I'm glad.

I try to keep giving people chances. But after a while I might just ignore them

No, I'm not in the habit of blocking anyone unless they block me first. The exception is spammers.

I usually mute the ones repeatedly annoying me. Sometimes I just avoid. Once I have blocked someone on here.
SW-User
So far I manage well on just ignoring them. I have a selective attention span.
SerenitreeF
Yes. And yes. And the else is muting them, but eventually that leads to blocking.
