"Say you have someone blocked. Would you like a feature that see's their forum posts blocked from your view too? Thoughts...? N.B. I understand the open premise of the forum and it's nature. " Personally, nope. I've been on a site that does this and it makes forum discussion quite fractured. I just don't want the blocked profile to see mine or be able to message me. | |||

"I imagine bit would seriously impact on the ease of reading some threads making them quite difficult to follow." A forum I use has a toggle option. So if I block user Arsehole (apologies to actual user Arsehole, if they exist) instead of a post from Arsehole, it'll say "post from blocked user Arsehole. Click to view/hide". It's not a difficult thing to learn to navigate | |||

"Yesterday I posted a lovely poem about the Queen's passing that I had found on a prominent social media site. The one, if you believe the disclaimers on people's profile, that owns, part owns or has a controlling interest in Fab. The poem gave credit to its author I had no intention of promoting that site however I found myself banned from posting on the forum for 24hrs. Have Mods no common sense or compassion? OK remove the post but is banning me proportionate? " Yes If everyone is allowed to post links because they think it is a good cause, then the rule would be pointless. Disputing a ban on the forum is also against forum rules. Maybe have a read of them before you next post, here is the link. https://www.fabswingers.com/content/forum-rules Fab is independantly owned, it is not owned by another site | |||

"I think it would be a terrible idea to not be able to see people you have blocked posts. Firstly there would be potentially gaps in posts that then wouldn't make sense also you wouldn't be able to see anything anybody had quoted to that person. Also potentially if A lot of people blocked that person they potentially wouldn't be able to post very much on the forums. An in my opinion that would be tantamount to bullying because it wouldn't take a lot for a group of people to decide to block the same person so they couldn't use the forums in the same way as everyone else. " Blocking someone would only mean you didn't see their posts. It wouldn't affect their ability to post at all. They wouldn't even know someone wasn't seeing their posts. | |||
