"so how many of you pre block ie people youve never spoken to on here before ..

I do if they have posted something I don't like on the forums.

For example a few months ago a guy used the forum for shaming bigger women. Obviously I was not what he was looking for and his offensive language put me off him in a big way so I blocked him.

I pre block in my local feed. If there’s no interest from my side I don’t see the point in seeing their updates, equally if after reading their profiles and I’m not a match for them it saves me again seeing updates for someone who won’t be interested in me. Saves either of messaging and receiving a no thank you.

I have blocked forum users because of differing points of view or not liking something they have said

If there's someone I have no interest in interacting with I will block. Doesn't happen often, but if someone is being an arsehole on the forum (racist, mysoginistic, insulting) then I will do, with a private note to remind me why I've blocked them.

I block people who put things in the forums I don't like. Mainly so I don't then message them later on. The social part of a meet matters to me so it helps make sure my meets are good ones

Also sometimes block after messaging someone so I can't accidentally message them again

Completely use and abuse the block feature on this and our couples profile (especially on local people). If we know we're not what someone is looking ie. BBC only or something else we cannot ever be. Then we block to avoid them clogging our local updates.

I think it helps to filter those who have similar interests and possibly a opportunity of some kind or just connect in some way as is no harm if get on great just messaging to those who don't match my required taste or I'm not theirs.

we've been doing it quite a few years now even to the point that we trabnsfer blocks if we decide to start afresh ..

our profile now seems to attract very little interest for those who abuse or want to wank we domt attract many who mess around with meets cant remember the last no show ...

pre block... either via messages / status / forum

people we know

the abusive

the sexist

the racist

bullies / trolls

dr*g user's ans seller's

body shamers and people who look for one type

kink shamers

kinks we have no interest in

those who keep asking for pics

phone wankers

guys who once agree to meet then mess

those who lie about age (lots of them)

those whos first message ressembles a porn script

those who advertise and ask for payment / gifts ...ask or give

lots on the forum for many reasons

lots of local people for having no interest in them pre saves time

anyone with reference for licking pussy for hours

guys who use cock rings

and many many other reasons people will moan but it made our account a bliss to use one simple button makes all the deifference yes it could mean blocking load and indeed we have but we will never want to meet them for whatever reason and them us..... see so many post of people having problems with other and yet the answer is right there in front of them..

Makes sense, if you have no intention of ever interacting with them or meeting them. Usually, they come to my attention following some nonsense or other they have posted on the forum or if I see something I don’t like on a profile.

I’ve found myself blocked by others who I’ve never had any contact with or spoken to. No problem at all. Makes the rest of fab smaller and more accessible.

Yup, all the reasons above. My two most frequent reasons are:

1. something they say in a forum that would seem to indicate we wouldn't get on (that's me being polite).

2. They are annoying on the local status lists.

Both are mostly for local people to me though, in case I accidently forget the above.

I do rarely block people from further away, but they really have to be saying awful stuff (in the forums) for me to do that. Or they have messaged me to be offensive (luckily only a couple so far).

We pre-block a lot.

So many men disrespect women here and think a shag is a "Gimme" - big mistake and not worth knowing them.

So many men admire/want a cock, but have "Straight" on their profile. We are all of live and let live, but we do not like liars, not worth knowing them.

So many men posing as singles, but obviously married - block!

Not really my thing and don't see the point. Unless someone is really abusive, tend to add private notes on people. Especially since I speak to lots of people on the forum, think if everyone blocked for sexual incompatibly it would make the forums a really dull place.

Not really.

I block if someone specifically gives me a reason to though.

I rarely search, don't really look at local updates and hardly ever clear my inbox. That's as much adnin time as I give it.

I've been blocked by others who have "pre blocked" me which is entirely their choice. While I might sometimes wonder why, I just move on

"Pre blocking someone, not knowing what they're like is a bit shallow really. "

So if they say on their profile they like a certain type and I don't fit into that type but decide to message them despite me not taking any notice of their preferences and they ignore/ delete message as they're not interested. I then block due to their lack of interest Im the shallow one? What does that make the person whose ignored/deleted my message without responding? U don't think they're equally as shallow?

Sounds like u've been blocked and are pissed off they didn't take the time to get to know u.

We all make quick judgements based on what we see in front of us. I'd say its quite normal human behaviour.

"Pre blocking someone, not knowing what they're like is a bit shallow really. "

When I (C) ran a single profile I would pre block for various non shallow reasons:

As a white male, if I pre-block a profile stating “BBC only” or “only reply to black men” that’s me being shallow?

As someone with no interest in recreational pharmaceuticals blocking profiles with “420 friendly”, “HnH” or “Looking for snow” is shallow?

In a similar vein, if there are other attributes outside of filters that I don’t meet, such as “6 foot plus only” does pre blocking make me shallow?

Actually, saves lots of time for everyone!

We don't pre block.

But we certainly block as soon as we get either a one line message or cock pic.

The biggest annoyance for us is people who clearly cannot be bothered to read our profile.

Although, after being here a month, we might start using the pre block for those users that having minging photos (by that we mean pictures with untidy rooms or rubbish on the floor. If they can't keep their home clean. It's a no from us)
