FabSwingers.com forum: Why do guys block guys?

This is a question to the single guys.

I was at a male friends house earlier having a bit of fun. He showed me his block list. 99% were single guys. He said when he is the chat rooms people will reference somebody in chat the chat room. For example somebody may type in the chat room very funny joetongueman999999. My friend will then notice he cannot see joetongueman999999's chat. When he checks that persons profile he is blocked. He has never spoken to that person, looked at their profile, emailed them, or tried to look at their cam as he is straight. So he is puzzled as to why he gets blocked. It doesn't bother him though. Me being a nosey bitch it has me curious as to why pmsl. We all block people from time to time but normally for a reason like they have been abusive, said something in chat or the forums that puts you off them, etc.

So my question is to the single guys why would you block another single guy who has never talked to you, emailed you, looked at your profile, looked at your cam, etc? It just seems a bit random to me.

Maybe they have blocked all single guys from _iewing their profile and not just your friend.

The block facility is a tool of the site for people to use how they wish

I know people can do as they wish. I am not having a go at anybody just curious and nosey.

Also you have taught me something new. I knew you could block all single guys from contacting you. I did not know you could but a block on all single guys looking at your profile.

I don't think you can. You can only block individuals from looking at your profile not all single guys as a group (unless that's changed recently)

As has been said you cannot block all single guys looking at your profile only block them contacting you.

If your friends block list is 99% single men, why didn't you ask him why he blocked...or am I missing something?

1. A block list shows who you have blocked, not the other way around. So your 'friend' has blocked those males. They haven't blocked him.

If your friend clearly has no wish to be contacted by single men..... Why is he looking at single men's profiles, and seeing that he is blocked.....

I have my filters set to stop the endless stream of single guys "Trying it on"..... Nothing personal about it....

This is best way. I have males able to contact me. And every day I get winks. And msgs from them trying it on even tho I have no interest.

I keep men on as I do have a male friend I talk two.

Ppl can block who they like.. and without question. If your mates block list is full of males, then your mate blocked them. As for not being able te _iew another guys profile. They are probably STRAIGHT and don't want endless amounts of unwanted mail.. It ain't rocket science !!

I block the apparently psychotic ones, the rabidly anti-bi men ones, anyone with extreme _iews and the ones that show themselves to be as boring as a wet weekend in Hove.

I banter with a few males on here.... Once I've messaged them the filter lets their messages through....

I think your friend may be telling you porkies about not _iewing them. He may not have looked at their profile but he has probably clicked on their cam.

A likely explanation here is a method I used to use when in the chat rooms.

I blocked all the guys that would _iew my cam and start wanking.

"This is a question to the single guys.

It doesn't bother him because his block list only contains people he has blocked. He will know exactly why he chose to block them even if he chooses not to share that with you.

If he feels the need to check other guys profiles (which is how he finds out he's blocked) then how do you know he hasn't checked out other guys cams?

If he's straight why is he puzzled at being blocked by other guys?

To answer your question, prior to the introduction of filters I would block any guy who 'approached' me and persisted simply because I am straight. With filters I now don't need to actively block any guys and now no longer have any in my block list.

If you have filters up, you can still recieve messages from people that you have previously messaged, so I wouldnt leave filters off for one person.

I put filters up against men after I got sick of the constant messages from 'straight' men. The final straw was when men started offering money for sex, and I decided I didnt want to deal with these messages any more.

As for blocking, I block if a man looks at my cam on chat. Simply as I show my face on cam, and try to limit those _iewing me to verified women and couples. Don't want unverified accounts, or people of no interested to me watching me on cam, so I hit the block button

How does not normally look at single men's profiles.

Ok this is what happens

My friend is in chat.

Somebody types something like very funny davebig2000.

My friend then wonders why he cannot see what davebig2000 is typing.

He then and only then looks at the single male davebig2000 profile. So in other words this is the first time ever he has tried to look at davebig2000's profile.

He then finds out the reason he cannot see what davebig200 is typing is because he has blocked him. This is despite the fact he has never chatted to that person, looked at their profile, messaged them, fab a pic etc.

I was just wondering why a guy would block another guy who has had zero contact with them and would not want to contact them as he is straight.

I did not explain myself properly earlier. When my friend sees a guy has blocked him he blocks them back. He does not block back to be childish.

I can assure you my friend is not lying. I know he is 100% straight and has no interest in looking at men masturbating on cam. I am not one of his parents or a policewoman so he has no need to lie to me.

Now were are getting somewhere. Some men block other men because they are afraid other men will be wanking over them.

If u block people and u use the search local feature they no longer appear in the search list. Then u can have your preferred search locally. That's another reason why.... Other than being straight

He might have clicked his cam previously on chat and not remembered. might have been blocked then. There are multiple reasons I might look at a male profile; if they post on forums and im being nosy, if they have previously met someone i have arranged a meet with, if they are mentioned a lot on cams etc. But i would never remember which profiles i have looked at previously. He has probably looked before for some reason he cant remember, and got blocked

As for the comment about how they should know your friend is not interested as he is straight; as most men can confirm, the majority of messages recieved from men have their profiles listed as straight

The same reasons any of us might block someone........there could be many reasons.

Maybe he just didn't like your friends typing in chat previously.

"If your friends block list is 99% single men, why didn't you ask him why he blocked...or am I missing something?"

When he notices he has been blocked he returns the block. Thus the reason 99% of his block list is single men. He did that after he noticed one guy would look at his profile and then block him. Then a few days later the same guy would unblock my friend look at his profile and then block him again. So to stop nonsense like that if he sees somebody has blocked him he returns the block.

I have recently set my filters to block men tv/ts and mm couples because as we all know people do not read profiles so it saves me the hassle of keep sending emails back to people to tell them i am straight.

Also helps when i put looking for females couples on my profile heading so when i come up in a search people can see right away what i am after.

Very rarely get looked at by men now although after posting this it might change.

I dont have single guys blocked from messaging me, maybe im just lucky in terms of not attracting bi/bi-curious/gay interest. Im messageable simply because of way i play, parties, group fun,need to be able to communicate with my fellow single male on occasions.

That said, yes i occasionally block the constant idle curiosity of a percentage of browsers.

Another valid point.

Like many single guys on here i only block single guys if they hassled female friends of mine after looking at my profile or if they pretend they are straight and so clearly not. Its really irritating and so false and misleading lol. If your bi or gay why pretend to be something your not. People will respect you for being honest. plus it saves me telling you how much of knob you are.

2) If he's straight why is he puzzled at being blocked by other guys?

1) He is straight. He has no desire to look at some guy masturbating on cam. He ONLY checks the other guys profile to see if he is blocked and that is why he cannot see what they guy is typing in chat.

2) It puzzles me more than him pmsl. Would it not puzzle you if you kept on getting blocked by single guys for NO apparent reason? He is always polite and friendly in chat, he never directs women or couples etc. He has zero contact with the guys who blocked him.

I am not being rude, but unless you are with your friend 24 hours a day you won't know what he clicks on in chat.

I am not sure who you are trying to convince that the man is straight....but whatever is behind this thread....people have choices, they block who they want, we won't always find out the reason for it

I have the general block on because I would get mail time and time again asking to meet even though I am straight..

For specific blocks I have put those on because people have bad mouthed me to make themselves look good even though they don't know me..... Or they have use me as some sort of reference without me knowing... Or have pestered friends by saying " well you have met him so why won't you meet me!"

Always makes me suspicious when guys bang on about how straight they are, lol. Like couples profiles saying 'hes as straight as this line ______' etc. makes me think they are very insecure in their sexuality.

Is it really beyond reason to think that he might have looked at these profiles? As previously stated there are plenty of non gay reasons he might have looked, but might be lying about it to you if he is insecure
