I have only had to block one person on this site.
Two women who were aggressively belittling people with different politics. I can't imagine my being interested in anything they have to say on any topic.
I have one person blocked... If i block others it is only for a few hours then unblocked
Nobody... yet. Someone has to really push my buttons and likely more than once to get on my blocked list.
Yes, because they got on my fucking nerves !
In the world's harsh wear and tear many a very sincere attachment is slowly obliterated.
Είμαι ταξιδιώτης τόσο στο χρόνο όσο και στο διάστημα
I block people I don't want to talk to, had issues in the past. I've had a great deal of stalkers from other sites who eventually find me here. In the past I used to block people that low balled my stories with 1's and 2's or left me horrible comments.
I've also blocked people who constantly quote me or attack anything I say in forums.
Since I've disabled scoring, I unblocked everybody and just have about ten people who I don't wish to speak to any longer.
For me, I'm a lot happier with no longer having scoring on my work. There's no need to block anybody anymore.
Hugs,

I've recently blocked one person because I dislike the very crude and narcissistic stuff he considers to be poetry
A little kindness can be so valuable, yet costs almost nothing
In many countries being gay is a crime, and even in modern societies, politicians try to legalise discrimination. Your voice can make a difference. Have a look at All Out to find out how.
Hey... pssst.... that's an l (as in luscious) at the end of my name, not an i I sure do block people, i'm easily triggered to respond to nonsense. I don't like to see people being harassed and sites like this tend to bring the worst out in some people. I much prefer to just not see those people... The block feature is a great tool when utilized properly, and keeps lush an oasis for me...
Well, I agree it should not be necessary, but unfortunately, this is still on the internet where people can be trolls and constantly talk shit about you, like in the forums. I, just like everyone else have my limits before I say 'Fuck it.', and block them. Just like Lady Mysteria, I had a few people bombing my stories and leaving very mean comments too. Since then, one of them delete their account, but there are still some with accounts. So, people are who they are, just like the jerkoff that lives above me. He constantly stomps his feet and makes other noise too. He knows I hate it, but he still does it. People will do what they want to do until they can't get away with it anymore. So I say, if you have to block them, then block them. Why let people put a terrible taste in your mouth for Lush? If it is just them, then block them and go on with your life.
About 50 - 60 at a guess. Members who would not share their chocolate biscuits or tea with me... just how rude is that... not putting up with it... full stop!
I have no one blocked. I'm not a woman so I don't get "hounded" by messages. I do get messages from guys but when I don't want to play they become disinterested so no more contact. So, I don't have a problem with getting messages (read.. I hardly get any.. hahahaha)
I have far more 'blocked' than 'friends'. I don't visit the chat rooms very often these days, but that was the source of many blocks. Being greeted with 'dick picts' wasn't my preference. Lately, my blocking activity is much less, though I still employ that tactic as needed. Now, if Lush just make a blocked individual COMPLETELY invisible I would love it.
Gillian,
I just posted a couple of cat pictures to your profile earlier today. One was soaking wet and the other just naughty.
I'm always blocking old fools and people of mediocrity, who are irrelevant.
Yes I have several people blocked .
Most of them were rude, others would get jealous when I talked to other people.
One was acting as if we were married
Reflecting upon the comments in this thread, and thinking about my own experiences, I realize that I've never blocked anyone who I had taken as a friend, nor anyone outside a chat room encounter. That does seem to be a fairly common theme here. Perhaps just fortune, but I've not been hounded by unsolicited emails, so that has not entered into it (though I understand that "entered into it" is often the subject of such emails).
I have been here just one day and I blocked a person. I went into the lady's room. This woman is married but says to me "this isn't the couples room"? Then gets nasty. Her profile says she is married also? I don't need people like this seeing my chat!
