I’m hoping someone will know the answer. If I block someone who lived within a quarter mile from me. Will they still be able to see my profile on the nearby list? Just won’t be able to go into my profile or will I disappear of their nearby list??

I can still see them on my nearby search. So I’m just thinking can they see me but just can’t look at my profile x

All the block does is stops them being able to message or view your profile.

They can still see you elsewhere, like here in the forums as an example.

The forums wouldn't really make much sense otherwise, people would see threads with chunks missing, nobody would now what replies related to etc 🤔

I think that's maybe something the site should look into 🤔..If you block someone they should not be able to see any trace of you

That's true, but also very silly that your blocked people can still follow you around fab and see what you're commenting on or joining in with.

A way around that would be to hide the posters username/profile to those that they have blocked their post in the thread would still be visible

Do you mean the local update list? If so no they can’t see you on that. I didn’t know there was a different list

Good idea. Would be stupid to not be able to see forum posts. If someone was blocked by lots of people nothing would make sense! That’s just not feasible at all and quite ridiculous.

The second part is there I think, e.g. if you had me blocked, I wouldn't be able to click through to your profile. All I could see is that you've written something. I wouldn't be able to message you, or look at your profile.

I think it just blocks them from being able to click on your profile and message you etc

If someone is blocked by LOTS of people, there's probably a reason for it

Doesn’t matter. If they’d done something that bad they’d be blocked from the site. Just because everyone doesn’t agree with their views shouldn’t mean they can’t get involved on the forum.

Mind you given that people can just delete their profile and set up a new one probably means it wouldn't worth the trouble

Exactly if you don’t want someone to see your profile, they’ll just set up another if they’re really that bothered about it 🤷‍♀️

No idea what it's like here, but on another platform I run a group for a specific triathlon, spammers with new accounts appear as quickly they are deleted.

I don’t mind them seeing what I write etc. Mainly I don’t want them to see I’m nearby and contact me. I know if I block them they can’t message me or go on my profile. I’m just wondering if they go on the “who’s nearby” can they see me on that list. X

You could do the same and call yourself ‘IronyMan’
