Can SW be this stupid ?

Hello,

Thank you for your message, and for your interest in VIP.

That functionality that you described doesn't change between non-VIP or VIP. The behavior of Block is exactly the same.

The only thing that changes is that you, with VIP, can block a lot more users (5000 users) than you can without VIP (500 users).

Have a great day!

Regards,
-SW Team

Hi .. Just upgraded to VIP and wish to know if there is a Block Shield , as recently it has become a culture to just block good arguments / conversations. My problem is that they say something and then block depriving me of their final say in the matter.

It would be good if an ordinary member cannot block VIP member and only VIP can block VIP .. or the block must take effect only after a week. For instance I am unable to retrieve contents of this post which is quite important to me as it is my intellectual property.

Pls check if VIP can read the post even after being blocked without being able to participate further.

If possible kindly share the page for me just the original post and my interaction with author of post.

Ordinary Members can blind 500 eyes and VIPs can blind 5000 eyes

So SW is for blocking people. 🤣

There is one takeway from his argument. Some (actually a lot) of the members in here post false information, fake news, and if those arguments are left standing they can convince others that it is the truth. This is why Rump is currently POTUS instead of sprawled across a bench in the men's shower of the state penitentiary with a row of guys awaiting their turn.

@JamesBugman I can see your point but I don’t believe one lick of what anyone here says when it’s political in nature. Regardless of the side.

If people are convinced what gets posted here, and not on a reputable news site is truth, then we have bigger problems.

@BillyMack When someone is unable to hold an argument or getting exposed, they tend to block, which is okay. In the case, I exposed her "preaching and not practising" .. where she lost her temper much against what she was preaching in the post .. and she got pissed off and said something and then blocked. No objection if she had blocked me without saying anything.

That's what @JamesBugman means by left standing

in10RjFox · MVIP

@BillyMack for my publishing ..

BillyMack · 46-50, M

@in10RjFox so you an author now?

Next time make notes before you post things. Allows you to have something to refer back to.

@BillyMack I am an author and publisher for over two decades.. and How do you know I don't ? I have my ways to extract what I need .. as I am a techie too.. But just raise issues against "Institutional Gatekeeping" wherever and whenever.

@in10RjFox maybe I’ll read your stuff some day. Cool.
