You know what I don’t understand....

Responding to someone’s answer and then blocking them... they can’t see what you posted then... 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♀️

Yep an ostrich on here did that to me. I would have liked to read what got her feathers all ruffled up. 🦅

@NankerPhelge I had no idea.🤔

@SW-User I've known about it for years. Next June will mark its centenary.

(Hides head in shame)..I have actually done this. Someone swears at me or insults me personally in a comment for no reason other than that they always swear and insult when they can't win an argument using polite words. I respond (usually politely), but then after I have responded, I realize that this person will probably always be nasty, so why not save myself some aggravation?

I do that so that other members can see who I've blocked and why. I think it helps to show the blocked member up as a troll.

@NankerPhelge if it’s something that you need to do... just seems petty to me... to each is own though my dude!

@Tryingtofindabalance It's one way of highlighting who is a blockworthy troll, especially if it's seen by new members who haven't yet found out who the trolls are.
If you block them, why the fuck would you even respond in the first place?

@LesserUgly that was my thought process... no big deal... haha

People make you crazy. I think they do it on purpose to drive you nuts.

@NeuroticByNature I’m okay with it... I don’t block unless it’s really bad or harassing... but I was sick of this guys blanketed hate speech and I called him on it

@Tryingtofindabalance that usually the kind of thing that gets me blocked I think.

It is just a way to save their image in front of the others so as to have the ‘final say’.

@SW-User the ohhh so prestigious reputation on SW! I can see why they did it now!

Frustrating, I know!

@Tryingtofindabalance I have been online long enough to "not give a damn" I agree people block for many reasons. It is hard enough living life in the real world then you come on here to just relax and have a few laughs here and there. What will you know? Online can be just as messed up, hence I dont pay attention when people block me.

@WildHeart this site is a bigger cancer than anything I deal with in my day to day life... but there is good here too... this is why I go through waves... log in a week go away for months... log in a week again... go away for months... the cycle continues

@Tryingtofindabalance Agree, therefore I take regular breaks. It helps
