I have a question in regards to blocking people. If there is a VJ user that I just cant stand, is it possible to block them AND keep that person from seeing or being able to acess and read any of the threads that I create or posts that I make? Is that possible? It would be nice if the block worked that way.

When you block a user it hides their posts from you..... they can still see and respond to any post but you cant see what the post....

Kez

Thats a double edged sword though. I mean - what's worse: People bad mouthing you, or people bad mouthing you and you're the only one who doesn't see it.

Right on!

People have the TIME to pester you, HERE? On VJ?

Double !!!

I've had people follow me around threads bad mouthing me in the last couple of days, so yes, it happens.

VJ stalkers who have no life I presume

What are you implying, eh? I think you dress funny!

Well I just figure that if I block a person i'ts because I dont want them near or around me. I do't care for seeing their posts in the same manner. It would be cool to be able to block them so that they cant see your threads or posts. I mean if Im blocking them then I have no intrests in reading their posts or theads but at the same time I also want to keep them from seeing my posts and threads too. By the way I only started this thread here not the one below. Looks like some one took the liberty to post that topic under my name that pisses me off, because that means that who ever did they can post what ever they want under my name. They copied what i wrote but I did not post that.

Any ways back to the topic, I wish we could block people 100% I dont see them and they dont see me. =0)

The moderators will sometimes "split" a topic if you make a post that is not relevant to the original thread topic.


ETA: And the only way to *completely* block a VJ member is to never read or post on VJ.

Yes, unfortunately. I'd much rather that the blocked person didn't appear at all... with no link allowing me to view the post anyway. I don't wanna see the name at all.

yes I want that too but I dont want to see them and I dont want to see me either.

ah ok got it, thanks.

Yup, if someone posts a question within a thread we can split it from that topic so it doesn't take the original question off track. The name of the first poster in a split thread will then become the OP of that topic.

This reminds me... does anyone else think it would be a good idea to make it very clear (in the title?) that a topic has been split from another thread? Especially in some of the more, uh... heated exchanges that sometimes result in off-topic stuff being split from the original thread, the person who then becomes the 'new' OP might not always appreciate it, especially as anyone who hasn't been following closely would never realise the split had happened, and would just assume that the 'new' OP had specifically chosen to start a thread on... whatever. Which might not be a problem at all, but then... it might, and I can think of a few occasions where it has been in the recent past!

Is there a way to make it obvious when a thread's been split, d'ya think?

What's wrong with my cape and pointy hat exactly?
