Yes you can. With that said interacting via the forum should not be used as a way to get around blocks.

Hope this helps

Blocking someone means you can't see their profile and they can't see yours. You can respond to their posts on the forum and they to yours but you can't use the forum to ask them why they blocked you or to ask them to contact you and give versa.

Don't apologise for asking questions

So there's no way of blocking someone from seeing the stuff they post?

If they are being abusive, or anything that you find offensive have you tried reporting them.

Unfortunately not. It's the one thing I don't like about blocking. Blocking doesn't hide you completely and it's not just forum posts they can see.

Bane of my fab life unfortunately.

Its more to hide from local people all together.

Absolutely no worries anyhow.

Thanks for all your help.

"See (insert name here), scroll". It's a manual work around that I find very effective in reducing the BS in my life.

If you dont people very local to you to see your profile on local updates or whos near you could always change your location slightly.

I have changed my location but it is more than slightly it is over 100 miles.

I think a lot of people have their location a little off.

If using the block, can be useful to put a private note to yourself. Sometimes its a forum comment rather than a pic and remembering why helps later on

If you don't want local people to know you are on here maybe hide your face and adjust your location.

As someone else said just avoid them on the forums

So how do you know whether someone has blocked you or hidden their profile? Guessing it says when you click on profile "Profile is blocked?"

(If that's true, probably not one of my brightest questions lol.)

If you block someone THEY should not try to get around that block by speaking to you in the forums as you blocked them for a reason.

Weird isn't it. I got a very juvenile message from someone i'd never spoken to and they promptly blocked me but they still try to talk to me via the forum.

Stop it with the false modesty.

I cannot see anyone being pissed off by what you say in the forums.

Well if it was a choice I would im not overly bothered by it.

I dont do naked photos myself and I've got nothing to hide.

Plus I dont get any messages without my face being on there.

Was getting tired of always making the first move.
