I am unblocking people on my block list. I do not even know them or how or why they were blocked.

is it possible to block someone by accident? how?

I always make a note as to why I block someone. If it's an offence of extremity (racist posting, always negative/personally offensive) they stay blocked. Otherwise I often 'forgive' and give them another chance.
@FreddieUK where are notes?

@Amalgam In each profile is a box marked 'Notes' It's next to 'About Me', if that's been filled in. You can make private notes which only you can see. Very useful.

Everyone on my block list is there for a very very good reason. If you made it there. You're doing life. There is no get out of jail card.

it was probably a comment they made that bothered you - at least thats how it is for me
Usually if it’s reached the point of blocking someone, there’s a good reason so I’m not concerned if I don’t remember specifics. Sometimes people change names which might contribute to my not remembering. But unless they’re confirmed by Admin as no longer being an SW user, they’re staying blocked.

I only block someone if I really mean it, and I never unblock anyone because of that. So once a year or so I just free up blocks by going through and removing anyone who’s profile pic has become that purplish X 🤷‍♂

@Amalgam you can write private notes on people’s profiles (good or bad)

@val70 not anymore lol

I feel thankful to now have some breathing room after getting unblocked.

You'd probably have to at least click someone's profile to accidentally block someone. Not sure if a confirmation dialog appears when you click it.

You can decide to do so hastily, i've done so, but I will never unblock them.
Get ready for a flood of smug comments
