My block list must have around 170 profiles on it now:
mostly through repeated no shows, and guys who haven't apologized afterwards for not showing up
guys with multiple profiles looking for information,
guys asking me for drugs
guys i dont knows sending me messages asking me to send female friends of mine to their place now.
and just general rudeness.
I've no regrets on blocking anyone, and there is always new profiles that come onto the site, and I don't mind ing out non-serious profiles. Even a smaller web site with less profiles, but profiles that are genuine is good for me.
Curious: does anyone want to comment on their number of profiles blocked? Or any other view on blocking?
I am always very patient with everyone who messages me, but sometimes blocking is the only way to deal with time wasters etc. |

I've never had to block anyone but I would if I felt I was being abused in some way. I have been blocked myself a couple of times, mostly it would appear for sending 2 messages without reply. Not for being abusive.
I understand the need for blocking for abuse or if you are contacting many people and need to root out the wasters.
Most recently I was blocked by someone I like, have met and get on with and I'm really not sure why. I guess I'll never find out. Such is the way of life. |

Everyone uses the features of Fab to their own system (whilst sticking to the rules). I can see exactly why bel_canto regularly uses his Block feature. It makes sense to Block folk who waste time, pester, etc so ya don't need to bother wasting time on em. If ya go to the trouble of organising events & get grief then I don't see why not block folk. He's using a feature for his benefit. We all do.
I use Fab'd Photos, winks, Hotlist & Saved Mails to a particular system. Some for folk I know, like, or have Met.
That's what features are for - ya use em the way ya want to. |

The block is a tool like any other to be used as the user sees fit , nothing wrong with having one or a thousand and one or yer block list as long as u know why its up to the individual. |

I have more on block than I do on my friends list. Sometimes one crude message is enough to make me block them other times it's constant messages and I just get fed up....Alot of guys don't seem to think that no means no lol. I think it's a great tool and one very needed on fab. xx |

I have over 250 on mine.
Mainly due to people not reading my profile.
'if you wink you get blocked', and 'if you send a friends invite without chatting you get blocked'
I follow through on these. Then i get rudeness, and people directing me on top of that. |

250 - good on you! I'm sure I'll catch up with you soon. I did start off hardly blocking anything, but it's such a good thing to have, a blocker. x |

I have about 90 people on my block list. Mostly guys who just won't take no for an answer but there are also some in there who are simply rude, arrogant and abusive dickheads. I report those types to admin but nothing seems to happen to them, so I block them. |

Good for you! I probably wouldn't have so many on my block list if it was a single guys profile, but because I organize groups and gangbangs I might have a lot more contact and mail if my profile was single.
It's good to hear that woman are blocking guys, because you shouldn't have to put up with any nonsense, x |

ive not sat down and counted 170, but i started with a smaller number and because i usually block profiles almost daily, its easier to add up. around 170 now. next week it might be 175+. 170+5.
thanks for asking sweetheart! x |

The Block button does get a lot of action on my profile. Sadly it does tend to be single 'straight' guys looking to meet.
I think a bit of courtesy goes a long way and those who are just blatantly rude or ignorant deserve to be blocked!
Although I have in the past been blocked for not including a codeword on a profile that was longer than Mein Kampf (and I really did read it just must have dozed off and missed the 'secret password').
I think in Bel Canto's line of work he deserves a medal for dealing with the amount of timewasters and his hard work arranging group fun for couples and single fems. Shame to the guys on the blocklist... their loss! |

update: since I made this posting, I've blocked another 80 profiles, which brings my block list up to about 250, lol. (wish at times I had started blocking sooner, I'd thoroughly recommend it!)
250, all justified if you consider some of the messages and requests I get!
Anyone else have any updates? |

We were about to leave Fab due to people constantly pestering us and not reading our profile until the idea of blocking profiles was suggested to us. We use the message filters to restrict who can contact us and if others have not read our profile in its entirity then we block them....easy. We get no satisfaction of doing so but it has become a neccessity. It is easy to tell who does not read profiles. |

Before making a comment on my forum, it would be helpful if you were to read, and understand, my original forum post, to see the point of it, please. I hardly think making 2 comments on a block list, 6 weeks apart, is 'every time' and it is far from bragging.
I would appreciate if you kindly do not use the word 'weird' with any reference to me or my posting.
Simple really: if you do not like posting, there is no need to finish reading it or make a comment. |

You are very mistaken. I am fully aware of my own posting and what I have said and what I have not said. It's obvious that you haven't understood my original posting, or any of my other postings.
I know this is an open forum, but does it give anyone the right not to offer deconstructive criticism?
I asked you not to use the word 'weird' and you have done it again. Similarly, as this is an open forum and if you use the word 'weird' to describe someone, maybe you will not mind if someone uses derogatory words in future to describe you.
However, I can see how much more skilled about using derogatory language than I am, so in order not to get into a slanging match, being a well mannered gentlemen I'll not match you word for word or use the word 'weird' that you used to describe me, twice.
I do forgive you, as I would anyone else, who might have 'special needs'. |
