I'm not sure I'd notice I have one person blocked because of their argumentative, rabid responses to certain other peas. It was politically motivated so now there are fewer Conservative peas and less of that sort of arguing I could probably unblock her now except I can't remember how to? It took me some time to figure out how to unblock Outspoken! While blocking is easy and intuitive, unblocking involves going into your profile, selecting “edit” and then go into the privacy tab. But, feel free to ignore that bit of info and leave her on block, if you want to. I promise not to start a thread about it.

Done, thanks It's funny because I tried that on my phone first and that block/unblock facility didn't even appear. Never mind, done now.

I hadn't realised that blocking doesn't work on phones. So if you've blocked someone on your computer, can you still see them using your phone?

Unsure about whether I’ve been blocked, but wouldn’t be surprised if I was purposely ignored. Just like in person, you are going to get along with some and not others.

I hardly ever log in on my laptop, but it's easier to check settings from there. I looked the other day because I wondered if I'd unblocked the couple I have blocked, but nope, still blocked. It all shows up on my phone. You also can't see the political label. 😕

No, I doubt I would notice. I would just figure they didn’t see my question or didn’t care to answer my question. Since I have several people blocked I would guess that I’m also blocked by some. I no longer post on the political threads and rarely even read them anymore, but I know I didn’t fall into line when I did post on them. I’m also pretty passionate about certain dog issues and probably come off too strong on some dog threads! Most of the people I have blocked I blocked because they seem to enjoy arguing everything or they are just full of negativity. I’ll block someone for arguing with others, not necessarily arguing with me. Or if they gang up on others. Drama is my other block reason, I just get tired of people that need or create drama. This is mostly why I’ve blocked people too. There are some people who are blunt, but unkindly so, and they seem to revel in it. I’ve got no time for that, so after saying something, I usually block them. Because I pretty sure that’s just who they are.

I use the block feature as a reminder it's not a good idea to interact with a pea. I still read their posts and will respond if it's nothing controversial. Sometimes, it's more because of me than the person. For whatever reason, I get irrationally annoyed. I haven't looked at my list in a while. I may have some blocked and don't remember why.

Blocking is more like “ignore” on this board. The only things that are truly blocked is that you can block someone from pm’ing you or following you. Yeah, there isn't a way to really block someone. I forgot about the pm'ing option. I don't know who I did that to.
