Have you ever been plocked from a thread?

For the first time today I was, & I'm not quite sure why. I'm not sure whether I accidentally answered the wrong post or I offended the custodian of the thread? But in true junkyard dog style, I blocked first & then viciously set upon without even given the opportunity to either apologize or defend myself. Is this just another example of keyboard heroism or simply childish & nasty behavior, or both?

How can they set upon you if they blocked you?

@Babylon: I think it was a description of the blockee. ;-)

@Babylon: The custodian of the site blocked me & they went on a rant with another person, I don't know the details. If I had of offended them in any way I would have public apologized, but I wasn't given the opportunity.

@VodkaBec: they're probably the sort that won't listen though. Best thing is to let it go.

@Babylon: I think so, it's not in my nature to offend people & I was a little taken back when I found what had happened.

@VodkaBec: I've been here a year and I've managed to offend so many, and also be offended by so many. But mostly I forget very quickly.

@Babylon: Good on you, a thick skin never goes astray, thanks ☺

@VodkaBec: believe me I don't have a thick skin, but at the end of the day being blocked by someone who means nothing to me is not going to upset my applecart.

@Babylon: That reminds me of a comment my GF made to a work colleague recently. She finally gave up & said "you win, I'm can't lower myself to your diminished mental capacity to continue" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
