FabSwingers.com forum: Block list

By (user no longer on site) OP
over a year ago

So when we first joined we were looking for single men only. This was how my husband 'introduced' me to the Fab lifestyle. I was never interested in couples meets, or so I thought! I blocked countless couples during that time, naively, because I didn't want to deal with the rejection side. I know that wasn't the kindest way to do it before everyone starts hammering me for it! I was new to it all, although I'm not sure that's a good excuse!

Anyway, years later, we have progressed and realised that actually we both enjoy MMFF. However, our block list must contain lots of couples in our area who we now cannot see!! My fault I know but still, I would love it if we could undelete all so to speak and start again. I don't want to start a new profile as we have a few nice veris. I wish they had this option as people's preferences must change sometimes!

Just remove them from your block list and they will be unblocked

The block list only goes back a certain way and then you can't see people you have blocked before that time. I'm talking 2ish years ago. Also, I've tried unblocking more recent people to see if older blocks take their place but they don't

Maybe the older ones have left?

Somewhere in the back of my mind I remember reading that the list only stores the last 100 profiles. It's true that many may have left by now though. It's just frustrating thinking that there are potentials there but we just can't see them

The South West is limited enough as it is

If you block a profile it means that you can't look into their profile. But you can still see that there's such a profile, e.g. on forum postings.

Presumably on your search list to.

If you can't unblock it, ask admin directly. If that doesn't work, set up another profile to contact some of the blocked profiles that you can identify, explaining to them why you contact them.

A bit convoluted... sorry,but you can probably get the idea.

Or just invite me over to try work out a solution together.

I don't think that is right as on my last profile I had in excess of 300 blocked. Maybe it has updated since then.

I believe if you delete all your most recent blocks it will keep refreshing with more until you have no blocks.

Not ideal.

I did something similar a few years ago.

Only solution is to unblock most recent, I know it's ball ache but if you do it on a pc then copy and paste the names of people you want to definitely reblock into a notepad file or something and then hunt the couples, good luck

OP, some people take being block with any contact as childish and will block return on your profile, we dont bother blocking people our list is empty,, but many block us which is fine, we all use this site in different ways ...lol..

So, thanks to all that have offered solutions. We have just unblocked all that we can see and the list is now empty. However, I know for a fact that we didn't unblock everyone we have ever blocked. There were barely any couples on there. Just the more recent single men. I'm pretty sure the list only holds so many and the others may be now lost forever

A lot of our oldest blocks have gone and we've only been here just over a year, but they appear to have left the site. That might explain the older ones.

They probably left the site, as they have removed their profile from Fab there would be no record of it on your block list. I mean, what is the point of blocking a profile that no longer exists.
