Too bad you can't block spammers in the same way.

Block feature can be like a vacation at times! Lol, a little escape from life's irritations.

It is a gagged and muzzled feature. Say there is a member here that rants on and on and doesn't really add anything of value to the forum. You CAN effectively make all their words DISAPPEAR. The words are still there, but you don't have to see a single thing they type. To you, the user, it is as if they are not even on the forum. I blocked a user.....Let's see if the Forum is more enjoyable........ Another forum I frequent has an ignore feature. I've never used it, but I know that the mods have ordered a few posters to use it. Seems to work.

I don't use it since I am easily entertained by some of the posts on here.

I don't know of anyone that I would want to do this to. If someone is posting something I don't care for, I don't have to read it.

Looks like i'll have to take my ball and go play somewhere else. This thread is referring to me. Explains why I am not getting a lot of replies like I did a year ago on any of my threads or posts.

There is only 3 members on here that like to read what I post. The rest wish I would leave,but since this feature is in place,majority of members will be sure to block me so they don't have to read anymore of my post or threads. Talk about violation of the 1st amendment preventing people from free speech,proboards made the worst mistake adding these features.

Right,then it is not worth my time to sit here typing when no one cares to read it. See how long I can sit on the side lines from now on and quit posting.

Rocket, it's not about you. I like your weather updates. I choose not to block anyone. I either read a thread or skip it. Keep posting. If people don't want to read it they won't.

I read what you post because I never know what you are thinking on any given subject. what makes you think anyone is referring to your posts on here? you seem to have a complex where you think everyone is against you if someone doesn't agree with your posts they don't have to read them. the last I knew you can post whatever your little heart pleases whether people like it or not. even the spam posts don't bother me in the least since one spam post was about a sport fishing place I had been to in Florida a few years ago. don't take life so seriously and you will live longer.

The truth knocks on the door and you say, "Go away, I'm looking for the truth," and so it goes away.

Old Chinese proverb:"When someone as low on the mental and social scale as an ice cream man does not like you, it is time to leave."
