BLOCKING people

28 Jun 2012

I have a question about blocking people on here:
I have blocked a couple of guys who I would rather not get messages from, but I am reluctant to delete then cos they have some stories I would like to read.
So yesterday I was shocked to find that they can still message me and poke me...is the only way to stop them doing that to delete them entirely? If so what purpose does blocking have?

thanks guys angel7

Why not pick one of their stories as a favourite.
That way you can find them for their stories.
Go into settings, allow only friends to poke.
Then delete them.

Of all our inventions for mass communication,
pictures still speak the most universally understood language.

From Site FAQs:

There are two options to block a member, either a soft block or a full block.

A soft block is where you block a member who is on your friends list, so that they remain your friend, but they cannot see you online and you do not get updates in your friends activity. To soft block a friend, go to your friends settings page and hover over their name and choose the Block option. Your friend will now appear in your friends list and your blocked list.

You can remove this soft block on a friend by hovering over their name in the blocked list and choose the Remove Block option. They will then become a full friend again.

To block a member fully, you need to firstly, remove them as a friend. Then you can choose the Block option available on the context menu when you hover over their name or you can enter their username on your friends settings page. Once a member is blocked, they cannot see you online or contact you in anyway. You can remove a blocked member from your settings page. Simple hover over their name and choose the Remove Block option.

So you'll probably have to remove them as friends.

Without asking for details, is asking them not to message you an option?

If not, simply find the stories you want, or their profile page to find the stories, and then add them to your bookmarks on your browser.

Then delete/block completely them, and make sure only friends can poke you, and friends can message you if it helps.

You can look at their profiles and their stories whilst not logged in to Lush.

Hope that helps!
