The block feature on social media sites are used to keep away stalkers and those who are so eager to be a disturbance and harassment to you online. Once they are blocked, they will no longer have access to anything you do online.

Blocking can go both ways. It's either you block someone or they block you.

How many people have you blocked on social media?

I haven't blocked anyone as I think everyone should be heard. I've been blocked because some people don't feel the same, but they can live in a world where they're always right if they want.

I do, however, utilize the "Post audience" feature on Facebook. I block my wife from seeing some of the savage memes I post cause she just wouldn't get it. 💀:ROFLMAO:

You better do otherwise you're going have a very long explanation to give which she's still going to feel like you're lying to her 😂 😅

I only block when someone start abusing me on Facebook. Facebook support doesn't do much lately for such.

She knows I do.

I'll show her if she asks, but she never does. Trust level over 9000.

I'll reply once to it and then ignore their responses as they typically come around. These tend to be very emotional and unstable people in sporadic moments that aren't really themselves. Over time, you learn how to specifically deal with them on what subjects and work around them with better communication.

Sometimes though, it's just Misery Loves Company (got that tattooed on me for a personal reason) and they can bring you down with them, so it'd be best to cut ties if that's the case.

I don't like battling with anything which affects my peace of mind. It's why I choose to go down the route of getting everything cut off because I know that I can ignore them but they can't do the same and would even invade my DM depending on what we are having a scuffle about.

That's reasonable and works for probably the majority of people to be honest.

My upbringing in young adulthood could be classified as (verbal) abuse — if it didn't come with a lesson attached — so, I'm able to take it with a grain of salt and move on.
 
If you use Twitter/X and say you have not blocked anyone, I know you are a liar. I like the platform, but there is so much noise, so many scams, and so many people with weird and outlandish views that I have been forced to block them.
 
I never used to use the block feature on any site until I began to see how stupid some people on those platforms were becoming. Had to do it.
It makes for some great entertaining reading when you're bored though. 🤣

I can get lost in stupid for a couple of minutes.

I only took this question at the surface level, not realizing that it could be deeper than that. I'll admit, across every platform, I block scams and ads. I don't find it the same as blocking a person for what they say though.

I rarely block people for what they say. I believe people have a right to say whatever they want as long as they are not hurting anyone or committing a crime. However, that does not mean I have to entertain someone who is deliberately rude, belligerent, sexist, homophobic, or espousing harmful rhetoric.

Oh yeah, and I do not have time for scammers.
 
I frequently block users on social media, I do not like toxic people and super sharer in my friends list so I will always block these people. I do not like negative people and I will also block these people

A quick question, where's more scam found on? Twitter/X or Telegram?

Telegram is drowned in different kinds of scams from cryptocurrency to airdrops. I've blocked and blocked more users than I can count.

Telegram has many more scams than Twitter, that's for sure. But, you can get into the weeds on Twitter if you go through some of the trending topics and hashtags because that is where these scammers cast their nets.

Yes, I know about all those scams on Twitter too. I try to avoid them the best I could. I don't reply any DM from them and block them immediately.

Have you been contacted by the "beautiful women" profiles? These are profiles with pics of beautiful women, and they are usually less than a month old. They are full of Ai images that can fool a desperate person or one who does not look closely enough.

They often like a tweet less than a minute after posting, so you think your post is gaining traction while it is the bots doing the work.

They are called cat fish. I know about them very well. I'm not looking for relationship online which is why I never consider or take any of them seriously. It doesn't take me a second to block them because they don't look real.
 
I have blocked nearly 10 people on social media due to toxic behavior. If you are regular on social media, you’ll come in contact with several characters. I’m happy that such features are available to get them out of my way.
It's a very good feature they added on social media sites. Forums have their own ignore feature. Are you aware of it? It works like the block feature too.

The ignore fetaure is even available on this forum too. I haven't used it on anyone since I've been using forums although I nearly used it once on Bizdustry against Hulk for being such a toxic human being.

I heard about your relationship issues with him on Bizdustry. He's no longer into forum management or usage for a long time from what I know. He also had a bad reputation on FP too.
I've blocked a few, usually because they prove to be a negative influence and it is for my own emotional well-being or they were a bot/scammer.
All scammers deserve to be caught and jailed too not only being blocked on social media.
