Don't Take Away Right To See Posts of Blocked Members
There has been some clamor for EP to make it impossible for people to see any of the content of people whom they have blocked. I oppose this.
1. I do not want somebody I block to be able to slander me all over this website and have me unable to know about it or see what he is saying or flag any violation of EP's Guidelines.
2. I want the option to be able to read things written by people I have blocked, for amusement, or to get a better grasp of their viewpoint, or for many other reasons.
3. Friends of mine might engage in debates on stories of people whom I have blocked. I might want to see those exchanges.
4. Hiding posts of people whom I have blocked will make some threads less coherent when I read them.
If people want to hide the posts of others whom they have blocked as an OPTION, that's fine with me. But please don't force those people's preference on me.
