If you've ever blocked someone, why did you do it or why did you block the last person?

I think people sometimes wonder why they were blocked....
nedkelly · 61-69, M
Could be many reasons,

Liverpool supporter

Looney left voting idiots

Pervert - see Liverpool

@smiler2012 Truth, my bad.
Lostpoet · M
@smiler2012 And Pink Floyd if I'm not mistaken.
smiler2012 · 56-60
@Lostpoet 😆never mind i am not the sort like who pull you up on every grammar and spelling mistake it was more funny the thought of four beetles on stage
AbbeyRhode · F
I will block pervs or nasty, abusive people. I don't need that dreck in my feed.
therighttothink50 · 56-60, M
How about the leftist bots and drones :) @AbbeyRhode
AbbeyRhode · F
@therighttothink50 Absolutely, I can do without their lies and abuse, too.
therighttothink50 · 56-60, M
They can't help it, most were born this way.@AbbeyRhode
He asked me my name and I felt like he wasn't being friendly, he was trying to gain personal information. I've changed my user name like 3 times. But if I had wanted people to know I would've offered the info out.
I know, you were kidding. @originnone
originnone · 61-69, M
@Spoiledbrat No, I actually meant it as a compliment....
Carla · 61-69, F
I used to never block. One year ago i blocked for the first time. Why? His hatefulness was too much.
Since then i have blocked four members that i presume are underage.
originnone · 61-69, M
@Carla I try and be careful about the underage issue; it kind of makes me mad when a kid is posing as an adult and talking to me.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
Perverts, Trolls, & others who get under my skin (circular arguments for example or posting redundant things).
originnone · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti maybe it's my imagination, but it seems less prevalent than on ep.
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@originnone I am quicker to block now so maybe not
Piper · 61-69, F
I've used the block option twice. The first time was due to the sexual nature of a message question. The second time was because someone had blocked me for the fourth or fifth time, as some "time out" punishment for [i]displeasing[/i] them.
Piper · 61-69, F
@originnone Yeah. Someone who has frequently...consistently accused others of being over-sensitive and easily offended, but gets their internet jollies by mocking, insulting and ridiculing certain targeted whole groups of people.

I only block idjits.
They know who they are ;)
turnedtostone · 56-60, F
@Nimbus You must not have too many left unblocked. 🤪
lovelychicadee · 41-45, F
I don't usually block someone, so when I do it means they have really been rude. Mostly if someone replies with hate towards others when making a comment on one of my posts. I don't stand for that. I will block though if someone consistently pressures me for not responding fast enough. I don't want to feel pressure while on here.
exexec · 61-69, C
Usually because I just don't want to see their political views. We blocked the last man because he kept begging my wife for sex.
originnone · 61-69, M
@exexec And why did he have to do that?.....some random/little visited social site and he's looking to get lucky....
Mardrae · F
I block people who message me and try to talk about sex or send me nudes. I love to chat, but it clearly says on my profile that I am asexual, and I tell people that who text me. If they keep on trying to talk about sex, after I tell them no a couple of times, I block them. There’s plenty of people on here who love that, but I ain’t the one.
Mardrae · F
@originnone I go somewhere between demisexual and asexual. It’s been so long since I’ve been sexually active though, I don’t know if I still qualify as demi. Sounds like you could be too
originnone · 61-69, M
@Mardrae I love my wife to death, but we haven't done anything in many years. Now that she is not healthy, we won't ever....and that's ok.
Mardrae · F
@originnone you’re a good faithful man- most men ignore the part about “ in sickness and in health “
SW-User
It depends. Sometimes it's because they were genuinely harassing me or others but sometimes (most of the time) I just block people I don't want to interact with. Because if I mute them there's still a chance they can interact with me in the replies of other posts. And I find even the potential of that irritating.
originnone · 61-69, M
@SW-User I use the "see less of this person" option a lot.
Lostpoet · M
They posted their pecker and didn't mark the post as nudity.
jackieash · 26-30
Usually, it's either because they creep me out, or I get tired of trying to discuss things with people who just will not even consider meeting me half-way in a subject. And then there are the irredeemable cabal of cretins, morons and other assorted idiots with far right wing"christian" opinions . So I'm getting ready to block a few I haven't got round to yet.
BarbossasHusband · 36-40, M
I have blocked a couple of foot fetish people just so I won't have to see their posts. Reason: feet disgust me. It's nothing personal.

The rest of the people I blocked are either racist, sexist, pedo, transphobic, homophobic or otherwise discriminating.
originnone · 61-69, M
@BarbossasHusband I actually enjoy reading from some of those groups....like the racists and sexists. I often can't believe what I'm seeing.
BarbossasHusband · 36-40, M
@originnone I dont necessarily block them immediately. Only after I try to explain why I disagree and they get nasty about it.
val70 · 51-55
I've posted on this matter in the past already. I feel like those that block often aren't really nice people. I posted something on a book and got a smart aleck comment back. Alright, I told me myself I'll use the English the correct way. "How queintly put :-) hello fellow booklover!" I got blocked
originnone · 61-69, M
@val70 I like that....
CestManan · 46-50, F
Under 18's and scammers get blocked instantly.

Perv spammers if their posts clog up my feed like that enema lady, OR if someone is a persistent serious a-hole. They get blocked too but not as quickly. I try to give benefit of doubt.

I do not block over mere disagreements. There's a few I often disagree with but that is not reason to block.
SW-User
I block for what's left of my sanity
uncalled4 · 56-60, M
Trolls, abusive people. In my opinion, they show you who they are and I don't have time for that.
looping · 18-21
they're a creep
they made me jealous
they're annoying
they tried getting me to sext with them
i'm just not interested in seeing anything they have to say
usually one of those
SW-User
I’m starting to block people that avoid me because it’s not like I’m going to reach out and bite them if they answer my posts. I block shallow people. I block vicious people as well.
CrazyMusicLover · 31-35
I was in a bad mood. I really didn't have to block that one. 😆
Since the last year I really don't give it much thought and just block if I feel like it.
NewRaven · 51-55, F
I have blocked a couple folks for asking to see pics of my kids. Sorry, they’re off limits.
originnone · 61-69, M
@NewRaven wow....that's downright scary.
NewRaven · 51-55, F
@originnone yes, it was. I understand in getting to know someone, kids and their age ranges may come up, but seriously.
turnedtostone · 56-60, F
They are sick in their minds and think kids are fair game or they try to push thier sexually kinks , both get blocked.
akindheart · 61-69, F
caught them in lies or playing me against someone else.
originnone · 61-69, M
@akindheart that used to happen to me on ep. I never blocked them. I kind of wanted them to see me.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@originnone good for you. i wanted to make a statement...i saw the lies and now they are gone.
Ducky · 31-35, F
I don't block. Most people I don't like end up blocking me anyway, so the trash takes itself out.
it usually comes down to some variation of
'naw. no. no f'in way. f this bs, had enough.'
I block anyone who posts about stuff I don't like. Its just to avoid them.
BeJeweled · F
I have blocked stalkers, pervs, rude people. But I have a small list so far. lol
Mainly because they just wanted to argue; they kept going around and around, even contradicting their own points, simply to be disagreeable. It became tiresome. 🤨
Quimliqer · 70-79, M
I have never blocked anyone. If i don't like you, i just go past...
therighttothink50 · 56-60, M
Leftist bots are like mosquitoes on every social media site.
I don't block too many people. They usually beat me to it. 😂
ExtremeNext · 31-35
I didn't like their avatar
originnone · 61-69, M
@ExtremeNext LOL!!! That's cold!
Myself11 · 61-69, M
Only disrespectful people
MasterLee · 56-60, M
They were idiots
We needed a break from each other I feel like. Often times, when I block its not because I dont like them. Its not because they suck but because i need time to process my feelings so that I can better communicate with them.
Corporalcolleague · 61-69, M
I often block people to keep myself from messaging them again after they were not interested in the topic i had hoped to chat about.
originnone · 61-69, M
@Corporalcolleague I'd probably block everyone....
BackyardShaman · 61-69, M
I run it by my board of directors, they make the decision and if deemed appropriate they block the profile.
originnone · 61-69, M
@BackyardShaman Did you used to be a comedian? And did you write your own material? Wow, can you repeat that again?
PhilDeep · 51-55, M
Being an arsehole to the high standard I set that relatively few match.
Because they posted a comment that I found to be vile and disgusting.
HannahSky · F
If lol different reasons
Mike3 · M
I dont block anyone
Human1000 · M
Trumpists, left wing loons, pervs, old male nudists.
Azlotto · M
I have never used the block or mute features.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
I block pedos because I can’t stand them.
originnone · 61-69, M
@iamonfire696 Do you think there is something that could be done for them? I know it's a taboo question, but I'm sure no one wants to be one....
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@originnone they can be castrated.
originnone · 61-69, M
@iamonfire696 I used to say that very thing; I also told people that if I ever had an interest in anything like that or ever assaulted a woman, I would volunteer to be castrated.
Renaci · 36-40
Because they were a pedo.
