Blocked quite a few as a result of forum posts...never used to but some shite gets posted sometimes and I'd rather not have to engage with those folk in the future. Getting sensitive in my old age mibbes!

Other than that...anyone who is abusive, won't take no for an answer or just a general pain in the hoop.

We block if someone deletes a mail we've sent them without reading it. Clearly they are not interested and that's fine. It saves them coming up in our future search results

The only thing this serves is it maybe make you feel better, though ineffective when it comes to forum.

How I use the block button depends on my mood.

Sometimes it's because they don't accept no and keep sending messages, sometimes it's because I don't like them and they are veery obviously a twat.

Sometimes it's because I've needed an eye wash after their photos.. Shallow but true..

Sometimes I just have no patience and do it because I can.

Yeah I know....until a boot in the stones becomes available...the block button will have to suffice.

You give me intermittent ring sting.

When it becomes a more regular occurrence, the button shall be activated.

I don’t think you can reply privately if you are already blocked or have blocked them

Anyway, usually if we know we won’t meet someone for fun we will block them, similarly if we have had a message back saying we aren’t their type. It just means we won’t message them again and go through the same messages. Also it lets us see more of the people we could be interested In on the update page

We have blocked a few because of their status updates and forum posts and I dare say we’ve been blocked for the same.

The site gives you all the tools to use the way each individual sees fit. They are versatile and it really doesn't matter how you use them or what way, only that they DO work

Stops them from msging you in the future though, there are so many people on here that it is easy to forget which ones said the really weird shit in the forum

We only ever use it for people who we’ve kindly said to them that they aren’t what we are looking for and finish it off with happy fabbing and they don’t get the hint and continue to message and try to add us as friends.

It’s strange as looking at this we’ve blocked so many folks who clearly can’t take a telling.

Maybe some people should learn how to handle "rejection" prior to engaging in a swinging site.

Along with discretion its equally important.

I'm trigger happy with my block button!! Best feature of the site

Although I do think when the list has reached a certain number the ones at the bottom fall of it and can start messaging again. Anyone else had the same? x

Masochistic streak perhaps....I've gone out of my way to be an obnoxious little fucker to a few folk who I had no desire to speak to again only to see fake profiles pop up and message me. Unfortunately for them their rather "unique" writing style made it blatantly obvious it was them.

For first 6 yr or so on here I had 3 people blocked but now up around 300. Unsure if there are more assholes on now or just my tolerance levels have greatly reduced since then.
