blocking someone

[skeptic 992]

What do we need to do to block someone and keep it blocked? I have tried to block a number of posters whose nonsense eventually annoys me to the limit; but they never stay blocked. They are still listed, a couple more than once, on my list. But they continue to show to me. Is this a function of automatic cookie removal? Anyone have an answer?

I am sorry I keep bothering you so much. I will try to be better in the future.

 

Now you don't need to worry about the feature.

Resistance is futile.

skeptic,

 

Are you referring to the "Ignore this User" link on the left under the name? I'm pretty sure this only blocks them from PMing you, not their responses on the Forums. Or do you mean you're getting PMs from users you've "ignored"?

It has never worked for me either.

I've never used the function. I consider it to be rude, even to someone who is annoying or worse. If I really want to ignore them, I could just skip their post and go on. But I don't think I ever have.

I have only ever blocked one person.He wasn't around for very long.

Think he may have got on his bike and bicycled back to the monastery?

The ignore whatever it is did a good job.

He was ignored.

As a rule, I'm a little like a moth to a flame, even though I know the person is going to be a twit, I still want to see how much of a twit?

I've never thought of blocking anyone. I value diversity, as my employer requires. As a former colleague used to tell me..."without them, we'd just be average."
