Yes.

Also a good dose of pre blocking works a treat.

"Racist or having caused me a personal offence, perhaps.

I don't really bother checking every single person who has looked at me in detail.

If I happen to click on that box and something immediately jumps out then I may look and block.

Same as I sometimes block from forum posts/comments because I know they are not someone I'd connect with or meet.

Saves everyone time then.

I will often do this when I don’t like someone’s status updates referring for example to d***s, activities I have no interest to participate in, constant complaining about the website, rude updates, with pictures I don’t want to look at, many reasons and in my opinion, all valid, at least for me. This is just to not appear in their searches as we will never clearly be compatible. When you look at this from that perspective, it’s not always a bad thing.

Only blocked one profile in the whole time we have been here due to not liking their profile. The blocking was because they had what we felt was a very distasteful write up which was borderline abusive and aggressive in how they would treat females on meets and was extremely crude. Just our opinion at the time.

Usually when it's obvious that they're not actually interested in me and are just being nosey, having clicked on a veri I've left on someone else's profile.

We all know it happens. But viewing my profile multiple times won't, in all liklihood, boost your chances with anyone else.
