What's the estimated number of people on SW that blocked you?

Don't judge me. This social distancing period is making me bored enough to count about 25 people on here that have blocked me. 😂

@SW-User 😂 Imagine a website where people can't block each other. That'll be quite a magnificent sight to see.

@SW-User it's funny people try to goad me into blocking them 😄 my patience is high and I can ignore people quite easily which frustrates some into blocking 😄 that and I do things to bring it upon myself.

Oh God, some people would have a nervous breakdown if they couldn't block
SW-User
@SW-User Lol Blocking has become a too easy way for people to escape a social situation. I'm sure folks that do the most blocking are socially inept.
SW-User
@SW-User oh I definitely think so as well. Conflict avoidance is prevalent especially in those with little or no social skills.

I'm sure some legitimately block though out of being genuinely harassed and attacked here, too.

@SW-User I blocked my first ever in the midst of a back and forth, but he definitely came in with no provocation. I tolerate a lot too since I can hold my own. I sensed he knew me from another place, but I can't prove it. I thought the best way to kill his one man party was to block. Sure enough, someone else told me he was complaining. I got a kick out of that one since I had never seen him before. 🤷‍♀️

@Peapod I'm sure they knew you somehow as an alternate account of someone or God only knows how. Good to get rid of the negativity. I haven't blocked anyone yet. I've come close a few times and I'm seriously contemplating it for 2 people right now which is rare for me.

@SW-User yeh, it just seem very odd to have never seen this personality and then have them swoop in on ME in the midst of everyone giving opinions on a political post. I suspect it could be one that probably blocked me on their main account and sent their sock to go insult. It was not a normal argument that I "cowarded" out of.
SW-User
@Peapod That was a good block right there
SW-User
@SW-User Yeah the blocking sure is definitely useful in certain situations

@SW-User thank-you. I thought it was too. 🤗
SW-User
@SW-User yeah I won't fault anyone that actually blocks for reasons.
