Sometimes we might offend people unknowingly or people just get bored.
Fernie · F
too easy? why should it be difficult? It's like free speech. I personally want to be able to block someone instantly with or without an explanation. People have their reasons.

My assumption is, any member has the option to block, due to the type of comments or thoughts they have. As for myself, I have no idea where the 'BLOCK' option is. I have had users angry with me for not sending them a nude photo!
I am comfortable to come in and offer advise to one who is troubled. Tho due to the teenagers in here the adults need to take more care in the words they speak.
*have since this writing have found how to block a user*

@Fernie I'm not babysitting either. My grandkids are all grown and have jobs as well as chores they do at home.
However I don't want to loose this hub. I have no other hub to go to. AND frankly S.W. is getting boring. I have tried just entering Chat Rooms and find the people are just wanting a private Skype.

I will block & report nudity. One dude in here took a selfie and his only cover up was his Moms panty hose. Yes you could see through it.
Look people. There are kids...they get hold of Mom or Dads laptop and look for nudes.
Try and realize that if a parent sees this sight and the pictures and the obscenities, they could shut us down! Do you have a different place to go to if S.W. is shut down? I don't!

Tbh, I get paranoid with all these posts re. blocking. 😌 Now, I understand why I am seeing so many deleted comments. 😓 I guess I've been blocked too. 😮
Thank you, sir. ☺

@SW-User I would think. But our monitors come in quite rarely anymore.And we don't exactly have a Manual.

I don't see any reason to believe it's too easy - it's virtually impossible to block somebody by accident, but when you WANT to, it's simple and doesn't take long. To me, the balance seems about right ..🤔
Not knowing what interactions you'd had with the person, I'm in no position to judge. But relax - some people will block all men who respond to their comments or stories, equally some will block all women/gays/TVs/Christians/Muslims/Jews/Atheists or whatever. This is because they don't want to hear the opinions of people in that demographic, and it's best to be flattered that they find your opinion that dangerous to their deluded bigotry. In those cases, mostly they're doing you a favour by blocking you, so you don't ever come across their vile spite again!😅
There are some people who block everyone who disagrees with them on their favourite subjects, no matter how polite and considerate you are when you point out your alternative point of view. We're better off without them, because we're ALL entitled to our own opinions - opinions aren't foolproof, and anyone who can't accept that other people disagree is better off blocking the entire planet!😂
But then there are people who only block if they're offended by something the person has said or done, although it's a bit thin-skinned to just block without first explaining that you've offended them and giving you the chance to apologise, so I suspect that the person who blocked you is probably just an arrogant bigot who simply can't accept that they're not perfect😉

I found out people you block dont ever understand/admit the reasons why you block them...and they take the chance to insult you. so, a pointless thing to let them know. My humble opinion.

@Fernie My Point. Just stating why I dont usually explain.

Perhaps you should get over it. The block button is there for a reason. Move on. People do not have to interact with you if they choose not to.

Jan; Never knew how to block till recently. You have to go into the users page via entering their nic, or name in search. From there you have the opportunity to look through all they have on their page.
Some guys in here get mad because I don't reciprocate when a gift is sent to me. Sorry but I don't always read every word from every user.
Jan, you were likely blocked by a particular user.

How do you figure out so quickly that you've been blocked?
nedkelly · 61-69, M
Some times you will see that the question has 7 answers and you can only see 3 of them
JanBos2 · 61-69, M
well, after 1 new word you get the message
Not easy enough imo. Perhaps you made them feel uneasy
softspokenman · M
You cant please all the people all the time, so some will block you. 😊
Carla1951 · 70-79, F
I won't block on nonsense junk. I will not Tolerate Nudity.
And yes I know I am sounding like my mother. I admit to watching Porn; but I was alone and I was curious and wanted to know some of the moves. As silly as it sounds... I (a female) never masterbated; NEVER I realy never knew. So watching a DVD showed me how.

Jan, you might consider this person clicked the block in error. however they were only words. Guess that this was a new user and wanted to check out the 'Block Process'
MeisterAndrew · 41-45, M
@Carla1951 How does one do it accidentally though? You have to go to the profile click on block and then confirm.
Carla1951 · 70-79, F
@MeisterAndrew easily.Simply know to always shut down your previous messages.
MeisterAndrew · 41-45, M
@Carla1951 Huh?
Wiseacre · F
Don't worry about it...laugh it off!
MeisterAndrew · 41-45, M
Yes people block too easily. Default should be mute as that accomplishes what you want but some on here use blocking almost as a punishment.

Hello Roy,I,know I will miss you as well as well as your little snipits that helps me smile,I feel like I'm falling, crashing to the ground.
