Completely acceptable. You can block for any reason you choose to (and also be blocked for any reason they choose, even if you might never know what that was).

Still acceptable. If I had a quid for every polite message that was then followed up by abuse after not getting a response I’d have enough money to buy some nice new shoes

Perfectly acceptable - but what irritaes me is people who send you a message, good bad or neutral, or a fab, then block you to prevent any response?

WHY!!!

Fortunately my memory for this is short and they are quickly sent to Room 101 where they are forever forgotten!

Completely acceptable. not everyone is for everyone and even in the case of a polite, respectful message, with a polite no thank you response… the same person often tries again after a couple of weeks. So a block can just act as a ‘repellent’ so to speak

Im blocked by loads - I just put that down to their shortsightedness if how awesome i am in pretty much every respect!! With couples its always the guy that blocks me as he knows I’m funnier, better looking, and a world class shag and he feels intimidated - its a shame as the women normally know nothing about it then go to message me naked pics and a phone number to find they’ve blocked me!! Single women who block me - i just put that down to them not wanting to fall in love with me and its just self protection… tons have already - just in case… can’t blame them when they realise just how much awesome can be fitted into one body!!

Perfectly acceptable, as it stops the back and forth of...

"But why?"

"Because I'm just not attracted to you"

"I'm way better in person, I'm just crap at taking photos"

"But I'm not attracted to you"

"But you might be in person"

"I don't think I will be, why waste both our time?"

"Well, I'm only offering to meet you out of pity, I figured you must be desperate you old cow / ugly bitch / fat slag"

"Lovely. Happy fabbing"

... or equally fun conversations.

If you just say no thanks, not for me, and block, or delete the message, or whatever, as long as you aren't rude in the message, it's perfectly acceptable.

We find blocking completely acceptable, we probably have more couples blocked than singles too. We also expect to be on plenty of others blocked lists as it's quicker than writing notes on every profile you have taken the time to read, digest and know that you just aren't compatible.

Completely acceptable. The reasons to block someone are immense, how people run their profile is entirely up to them, if they choose to block you that is their choice whether you see it as acceptable or not.

I find it is a great way to filter out who you are interested in and who you aren’t.

Its a two sided debate if your view is to block them then what about the opinion of this happening to you are you OK with people just blocking u on looks if so what happens when your not really the hottest etc its a sliding scale skewed to those it benefits where as on other hand im q hetero male who has to tell alot of other bi and gay males daily im not interested its not hard just need respect to be handled with just tell them about actual attraction and most respect you but most times womens think males going stalk them or be repulsive etc

Awks! Lol

They just have so much choice on here, always trying to look for something better.

In different environments they don't have so much choice though.

Surely that is a logical strategy. It makes perfect sense from an evolutionary point of view. A resource rich environment is desirable, I would have thought.

Yeah women are naturally hypergamaos

It just shows though that it isn't always the case that they weren't attracted.

Ooof not sure I would agree with that statement!

It made sense when I was balls deep in them.

Maybe you come across less mr know it all in real life and don’t have your high horse to sit on. "

I tend to back my opinions or up with facts or pretty circumstantial evidence.

We once sent a very polite " no thank you" message back only to be bombarded with abuse in return. So now we just block what's not for us. I'm sure the same happens in reverse.

It stops abuse in some cases, the amount of babies who can't take a polite no , such pathetic behaviour. Can't take a no online imagine they won't take no for an answer in person, gross

I don't bother replying, so rare I need to block. I only block people pushing their fetishes and dicks in my inbox now

People can block whoever the fuck they want imo

"Its a two sided debate if your view is to block them then what about the opinion of this happening to you are you OK with people just blocking u on looks if so what happens when your not really the hottest etc its a sliding scale skewed to those it benefits where as on other hand im q hetero male who has to tell alot of other bi and gay males daily im not interested its not hard just need respect to be handled with just tell them about actual attraction and most respect you but most times womens think males going stalk them or be repulsive etc"
I personally think whoever you are! You can be respectful with a polite no if you ain't attracted to someone. Doesn't mean you can't still be friendly or block it's personal choice.

So true! I got blocked from a guy just because he was wanting to see more videos, After i said I'll do them when i post them publicly. He was demanding! But apparently liked talking to me. You are allowed to say "No"

Totally acceptable. People have many reasons for blocking, just accept they've blocked you and move on.

Its a little 'weapon' isn't it, look at all the profiles with this 'threat' in them. If someone's abusive or being a cock, then yes, I concur, block, but most people are just messaging nicely, (I hope). If they're not for you, then just say so in a brief reply.

On the subject of blocking.....

The one feature I love on the old desktop version of Fab that hasn't migrated over to the mobile version relates to your block list.

On the desktop site it tells you if (and how long ago) you added someone to your list. Useful if you can't remember who blocked who. I went to add someone a couple of days ago only to find they were already there.

Checked on the desktop site and seems we'd (most likely me as opposed to Fox) had blocked them 8 years ago.

On the mobile version it simply says blocked, but not who did it or when.

I wish it did.....

Still acceptable. If I had a quid for every polite message that was then followed up by abuse after not getting a response I’d have enough money to buy some nice new shoes "

Blocking is a nuisance when used as a matter of course by forum user.

Although I might have no intention of ever messaging people, I sometimes want to check their biography in order to get some idea of what makes them tick and work out why they have commented in a particular fashion. Looking them up doesn't mean I am going to bother them.

Some people are so up their own backsides that they think everyone who looks them up is going to send them a 'Hi WUU2? message!

Never ever block if I don't get reply after say a day I just delete the message same with if messages fizzle out, plus it's a good way of keeping the message box clear.

location varies

I would rather be blocked if someone isn’t interested. I’m not going to be offended by that

If i reply to say thanks but no thanks, i have found that some profiles will send a follow up message at a later point.

If you use and remove message filters routinely (like I do) then you can find yourself in the situation where if you reply to say “thanks but no thanks” then that same profile will be able to bypass your message filter (when you set

them again) to message you again. For that very reason, I don’t see an issue with blocks.

I can see the closure rationale for a curtesy message before blocking but a simple block isn’t a bad thing in my books.

We dont block people if we are not attracted to them after swapping face pics, we just say not for us and thank them and wish them luck.

We tend to get blocked though after sending our pics.

Their choice.

Women see it as acceptable it cuts down on messages from men they aren't interested in and i can see a point to it to be fair gives them more time to concentrate on those they like

As messages can dissappear, or you delete them to tudy up your mailbox, quite often you can find yourself looking at a profile you may have been messaging but can't remember what was said or why it didn't go further and so you run the risk of bothering them again.

Blocking stops you doing that
