Afraid the people we've blocked stay blocked!! A few have even left and rejoined but use the same pics, so they get put back in our block list as soon as we recognise them

I have no interest in people I would rather ignore, so once they're blocked they're blocked for good.

I don't block very often. After nearly 5 years here I still only have about a dozen on block.

However, if I do block then I don't want to unblock and allow any contact with me, they are blocked for a reason.

It's a function of the site I use regularly along with the other features that allow us to filter out those we'd never want to have sex with because we simply don't like them as people.

We have quite a few on the block list, mainly because they are disrespectful so they don't get a second chance.

i am very handy with the block button but then i mainly us it when i am in chat to single guys as i have no wish to meet them so if they r rude i block and they can't message me anyway as not looking for single guys so its never an issue if i block them x

Doesn't it depend why you block them? Forgiveness is a very human thing, and often only takes time, but if you're never going to want to talk to them, well, that's how it is.

This

I've blocked guys with short memories, who keep 'asking' but after a few weeks I'll most likely 'unblock' knowing they will have moved along by then.

If it a peson who has little or nothing in common with me.... or a 'quaint' world view that makes me go

Then they can stay blocked.

I don't do forgiveness, it's not one of my traits. When I dislike someone I dislike them forever. I know what type of people I like and which type of person would irritate the hell out of me after 5 minutes of talking to them.

My gut instinct is 99.99% accurate when it comes to people.

I don't block without a reason, however, the reasons could be considered as very trivial by some.

As if I care much about what other may think. Ha!

Meeting those I have blocked face to face always reaffirms my gut feel being correct in the first place.

If I left everyone blocked that I have blocked I would have no one to talk to as have fat fingers on a small screen in chat and am always blocking ppl by accident.

I actually unblocked everyone on list the other day as I didn't know who was who on the basis I Cavan always reblock as and when needed.

You could always unblock your list, every 3 months or something and start the blocking again

I share the sentiment about blocking those I do not have any interest in getting to know let alone to play with.

Save time and effort for both parties.

We do the same it only takes seconds to block and it avoids getting messages you really don't want.

most stay blocked so i dont have to read their profiles again and try and remember who they are, it saves time. sometimes i block people if am in a bad mood, then the next day i unblock them.

not far from iceland,,,,,, tescos is nearer though :-) (near leeds)

You're on a list for a reason . unless that reason changes , I see no reason to remove someone from the list... if you gave them a time out,, people generally revert to type change is very difficult both to do and maintain,,.. you'd only end up re blocking them..

I felt like I was being too harsh to people one day when I went on a bit of a blocking spree so the day after I unblocked a load of people, and low and behold they've one by one worked themselves back on there. Shoulda known my instinct for douchey people never fails me.

I vote for stay blocked! x
