Does this irritate you???

I guess I am overly sensitive or something to that effect.
Someone deleted four of my comments then blocked me so I can't even see why or what it even was.
The comments couldn't have been that bad because one had four likes.
So I guess the irritating part is why does S.W. notify you that your comment was deleted when you can't even go see why?

It can be. But there are some dysfunctional entities here on this site. Just ignore.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Zonuss LOL. There are too. I just saw a guy going off on everyone about being ignorant know it alls that think their uneducated opinion was worthy of them. I called him a bit upity before he deleted the post. LOL
Whacked.

It happens to me too. SW can't be responsible for what's going on inside some of these people's heads?! A guy made a comment on this girls post and another girl told him he was rude, but he was only stating how he felt. He never said one ugly or mean thing at all. I said I didn't think the way he expressed himself was rude at all, she blocked me. 🙄 I've had comments deleted and don't care anymore. I've been blocked by people I've never even heard of, (multiple accounts I'm sure) and had my posts jumped on with the meanest comments by "friends" of "friends" too. If you don't agree with everything said by some here they will block you. Just look at it like they did you a favor.😀🍀😜 You're one of the nice guys!🌟

@Peapod OH I know right. I have people, even today, that I have polar opposite views on politics with but we can still interact on posts that don't involve that.
People take the whole religion and politics so seriously.
But then again it has been said that is the fastest way to end up in an argument is with those two topics.
Yeah I get what you mean.
Peapod · 61-69, F
@Dainbramadge, sensible people can and do respect each other over the difference of opinion with these issues. But there is a fringe here that does not.

@Dainbramadge What a weird person?!😐️ I've had someone give me best answer and then give it to someone else?!😎SW should fix it so best answer can't be switched like that. "Hearting" mean comments is something else that should be worked on.💓
You must have touched a nerve 👌
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout Must have been close to the surface because I am pretty good about not being to vulgar in my comments. IDK.

Being in one of the oldest age ranges here I like to think I'm expected to be a bit more mindful and a bit less hasty than much younger folk. Apart from as a result of lengthy polarised discussions about religion of politics I wouldn't expect any rational person feel the need to block me.

But I once sent a four or five line reply to a posts and within seconds my inbox light came on. I went to read it and saw "why are you attacking me?" from the post I'd just replied to. I went back to the post to see if I could figure out what's caused such a misunderstanding and I couldn't see anything so I wrote back to the effect that I wasn't attacking her and what made her think I was.

And the message wouldn't send. I'd been blocked.

Some people here just aren't rational no matter how much we'd like them to be. There could be all sorts of stuff going on in their lives that we don't know about and I figure the best reaction was to just let it go. If blocking me is what they need to do then so be it, it's certainly not my place to carry the responsibility or to complain when it's cost me so little.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@ThePerfectUsername This was a great answer.
I can see where you are coming from. You have a very levelheaded approach to this. I did kind of get irritated with this subject even tho I know we are not all going to see the same things the same way. But this last one was so odd because they had given me a Best Answer first.LOL.
I can understand if I am a bit persistent on my stand point and things get heated. But what could I have possibly done to get Best Answer then blocked for it??? LOL. Confusing really.
But now I have been through about five other situations like this sense I wrote this and I guess I am an old hat at it now. I still would like to see what I did wrong before I get blocked tho. :-)
ThePerfectUsername · 70-79, M
I still would like to see what I did wrong before I get blocked tho.

Me too but it'll probably never happen so I just let it go. If they're that sensitive that they need to block me the chances of am realising it and coming back to make peace with a guy they don't even know is practically zero. 🤗 @Dainbramadge

I seem to see that almost every morning when I get on here and look at replies and such and there is always a few. Don't know if they're blocks or what but I quit trying to figure this place out a long time ago. Yeah, you're being a little over sensitive about it but I understand you questioning it. You'll never figure out some of the people nor the ways of this site. My advice? Forgetaboutit.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User LOL. Great advice. You know what??? This was the first time I have had that happen. :-) . Probably why it bugged me.
SW-User
@Dainbramadge That's probably why then. Not the first time and won't be the last. I have two close people that use this site and one has had enough and the other just blows it off. You'll get used to it in time.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User Thanks. :-)
the truth has a tendency to do that LOL
@Dainbramadge people can look past ridiculous statements or outright lies. but, the truth...... the truth will make their blood boil.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@YourMomsSecretCrush Ha ha ha ha!!!! That is so true. People would rather stay ignorant on a lot of subjects on here. Crazy isn't it???
SW-User
@YourMomsSecretCrush You got that right! They will eat up a lie...and quick!
SW-User
About a month ago a troll I had encountered before said something rude to me in a comment on a question. I told him to please leave me alone and the person who asked the question deleted my comment and blocked me! So anything can happen on here and will continue to happen. I just block the overly sensitive back. No loss to me.😉
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User OMG!!!!! They deleted your comment for asking a troll to leave you alone??? Insane. I don't ask many questions but I would never delete a comment just because I didn't agree. That is the whole point of asking them is to get a well rounded input on your question. That's what I did with this. I wanted to know what others thought about it. IDK. First time for everything. :-)
SW-User
Yes and I agree with you!👍️@Dainbramadge
I haven't found the need to block anyone yet thankfully, but I think if I had to I would tell them exactly why. I imagine it's a bit hurtful to be blocked for what seems to be without reason, but its their prerogative and maybe its them being too sensitive so it's not worth being bugged about.
SW-User
Your opinion was obviously not what he/she wanted to hear
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User LOl. That is the the point of asking question on an open forum like this isn't it?? To get others opinions. First time for me having a comment deleted.
Groofydorkgerdo · 56-60, M
It happens to me ALL the time.
People want to express their ooinions or ideas and when I express mine in return, they try to attack me, with insults and trollish remarks.
I rebuttal with esteem and respect (USUALLY) then they delete my comments and block me.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Groofydorkgerdo That's how I feel. I may answer pretty goofy or with sexual over tones but I am never mean to start out with and I think I am never vulgar. Just want to know who and why just for my records. :-)
Groofydorkgerdo · 56-60, M
@DainbramadgePeople who do that are just weak minded who cant handle loosing a debate.
It use to irritate me but it’s just ridiculously stupid. And yeah I don’t get why you’re notified your comment is deleted.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@wilderflower I know. It's like a tease almost. " Your comment was deleted and you can't see what it was or why ". LOL
@Dainbramadge Maybe one day they’ll explain the logic behind it.
SW-User
Got to remember where you are and know that it’s not you. 🙂
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@SW-User The one that really bugged me was the one that gave me Best Answer before she did. LOL
maxeen · 70-79, F
just keep on being your fun self...what's 1 outta hundreds...
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@maxeen This is so nice to hear. Thank you. Means a lot to me.
I know that we aren't everyone's cup of tea but the weird ways the ones I was mentioning happened kind of bugged me.
I am a little more numb to it any more. :-)
bookerdana · M
Sometimes the post is deleted
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@bookerdana Oh yeah. I didn't think about that one. You know. That would make more sense because they gave me best answer first. BUT.. they deleted comments too before hand. I really was lost on that whole situation.
Maybe they accidentally gave me Best Answer. LOL.
bookerdana · M
@Dainbramadge I got deleted and blocked for sharing a link🤷‍♀️

Weird "room" here
JaggedLittlePill · 46-50, F
That is annoying.

They also show you deleted comments from posts that have been deleted all together.
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@JaggedLittlePill I know right?? And no rhyme or reason and no way to find out. RRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.......
Zonuss · 46-50, M
Not really. Its just that you have managed to irritate them even more. 🙂
Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Zonuss But she had given me a Best Answer. LOL She blocked me before I could thank her for it.
Lilnonames · F
Nope

Dainbramadge · 56-60, M
@Lilnonames Now THAT was irritating. LOL. Compared to that having a few comments deleted was nothing. :-)
