Oh the Irony.

It's weird to me that people say that don't care but here they are posting they were blocked and who did it... Clearly, you care if you make a post. Silly really who cares if someone blocks you that's life. Not everyone is going to like you and not everyone you're going to like. But don't be a hypocrite about it. So Strange.

I can understand someone being worried if they were blocked by a member they'd been close friends with and had regularly DM'd. But chances are that if you know someone very well, you'd know why you were being blocked by them and could have seen it coming...

However, if you're blocked by strangers or acquaintances.... you have to take all that in stride. If you don't know someone well, and they block you, you're not going to miss them.

@SW-User Well said!! Who gives a rat's ass. Otherwise you're in for a treat when you realize how the real world works.

@Doglover44 For one thing, re. what you said below about *shaming* members for using the block feature, I'd say that looks like a dead giveaway about why the block happened: bullying and other forms of harassment.

@SW-User I mean some time's you really have to wonder why though. I posted about a senior dog we adopted someone posted how sweet it was I thanked them and then I got blocked. I had not chatted DM or commented to this person before. 2 comments and blocked.

@Cigarguy101 I never wonder why I've been blocked. In fact, I might not even notice...unless someone I'd seen an awful lot of blocked me, and then after awhile I'd begin to wonder if they'd gone on vacation or something... 😆

The reason why you were blocked by the person you mentioned could be something obscure: maybe right after commenting, they silently read something you posted somewhere else which triggered them in some way. But if you only knew them for 2 comments, at least, it's not as if it's a big loss to you.
