Whether you're on youtube or any other site ya go to, what's your reason for blocking someone?
Me? Well, it's usually trolls who go too far.
How about you?
-
Lol I cant vote, as all of them is why I block <3
-
I put down other, as my way of saying all of above, and more. Because it really depends on what they are doing, and to the extent that they do it.
-
Hardly ever at all. Only if they are completely harassing me and my friends.
-
What Teal said. I don't like blocking people~ ?
-
I dun block people. Most of these idiots actually amuse me, why block. :B <3
-
i block trollers then un-block them the next day xD
-
I never block people. xD I guess I just see no sense in it. I mean, you block them, but it really does nothing except you can't see what the person is saying, etc.

I've had to block people on other games before. Mostly, it was for being ceaselessly obnoxious day after day after day, and after other people have told them to stop being disruptive to no avail. I have an unfortunately hard time ignoring people when they're getting on my nerves, which also happens much too easily sometimes. When somebody's immaturity or superiority complex or whatever else gets in the way of me enjoying a game, I have no choice but to block them.
Sure, it doesn't really get rid of them or do anything to correct their behavior, but it does help me pretend they don't exist and get back to having fun with the game. Fortunately I haven't had to block anyone on FH so far.
-
I'd have to agree with what Caelstis. Sure, blocking doesn't completely get rid of the person or punish them, but at least they leave you alone xD
Sometimes if you don't block the person, they're either disrupting an rp or chat you are having with friends, which could get very annoying. You can ask them to leave but people for some reason get VERY offensive about it, even if your asking nicely (had this happen to me a few times) :/
This can also prevents arguments you may start between the person, and no one's time has to be wasted ^.^ (very useful for trolls).
I had to choose annoyed, because that fit the description for my attitude toward all of the reasons that were listed haha.
-
Sometimes its just people being plain out trolls and or throwing sexual jokes at me constantly and wont leave me alone.
A few times i've had to block for trolling,people teasing me and chat speaking to me and annoying me because I dont curse when I ask them to please stop and leave me alone then you have me blocking a person who was begging for me and some friends to leave and saying 'she was here first' in the Lagfire (Bonfire) cave area thingy.
Anyways,I have to agree with Caelsti as well,but sometimes the person can still doing embaressing things to you such as buttswinging you even if their blocked.
-
Yes, but once they're blocked they actually can't see you either, which I absolutely love ^_^
I think blocking is extremely useful and helpful.
Blocking vanishes the blocker and the blocked from their computer screens, so arguments could be avoided, and so then reports don't have to be made. Both can continue what they were doing and soon forget eachother, and you can always unblock the person the next day ;D
Out of sight, out of mind.
-
If I am being harassed, bullied, trolled, taunted, or messed with when I clearly do not want to be messed with.
-
I rarely block people, unless they are one of those creepy stalker kinds, or if Were rping next to another large group, I may temp block people to reduce lag, but I tell the other person first XDD
-
I haven't blocked anyone yet (hopefully I won't need to), but if I ever do need to in the future it will be because of either inappropriate/bullying behaviour, trolling, or anything else negative that would tick me off x3
-
Any of these bad internet manners are acceptable to me if you're a friend and it's in a very joking manner; it's a minor release of your trololol!
- I voted for Trolling since that's my biggest pet peeve on online games. If you're trolling you get instantly blocked, since you should never feed the trolls.
- Spammers, CRUISE CONTROL, and Advertisers are always annoying too, and get an instant block from me when seen.
- Name calling isn't cool, man. I may argue with someone who does this, but I usually don't block them unless it's coupled with trolling, in which case, INSTA-BLOCKED.
- Beggars aren't worth taking up my block list space.
