“BLOCK” Function?


  I’ve tried a search here for such a function,and I’ve come up empty. Is there a way to block certain members? Not just from personal messages,but so they don’t show up in any topic I’m reading. Sometimes it’s nice to ask a question and learn something without someone trying to rub your nose in your lack of knowledge like a dog that did his business in the house.  I am all for learning from others. That’s one of the reasons I frequent this site. However,there are some folks here that do have vast knowledge, but are as abrasive as 40 grit sandpaper. For those folks I’m ready to throw the baby out with the bath water.

Many who are not good enough to assert themselves in real life do it
on social media.
They are not worthy of anyone's attention. They stick out like a sore thumb on any blog, no matter the subject. Just do as suggested, ignore them, bypass their posts and live a fuller life. 
I’m a little upset the mods felt the need to remove posts. Nothing sketchy was said. Especially for using the word nude.
Well on that note,I will just self moderate. If I don’t like ya,I’m just gong to move on like you ain’t there. Thanks? That was fun!

I think he's probably like this in real life actually.  It's just that he requires constant validation to keep his demons at bay....latent insecurities and general life unhappiness.  Someone needs to be blamed for how he feels - and that's what we are used for - a target to direct his life frustrations and assert his higher worth compared to the rest of the earth's humans.   
“BLOCK” Function?
@rocray,

You almost got it right. But don’t just block, do what your Pop’s, Mom, Grands or big brother and sister taught you. When the bully hits you - you hit the bully in the nose. Don’t take their crap - at all.

There are quite a few here who use this blog kinda like liquor. They know they can hide behind the internet and say what they want cause it gives them courage when they know darn well they would not say those things to you in person.

So you hang in there. There is a lot to learn here from some fantastic posters who are willing and able to teach in a respectful courteous manner.

Besides, if someone here has tried you - and you still are here? Sounds like to me you already know what to do. That’s part of the learning process here - just like everything else in life.

Sometimes the really hard part is letting or should I say leading the jerk to actually let them know it's ok to just be cool and not be such an ass. But that's only if they have the capacity to listen.

So don't be afraid to speak your mind and ask your questions. There really are some great folks here.





Sorry if some people don’t agree with my opinion. Feel free to block me
Well I can agree with your premise.
It is NOT censorship.
That makes two of us.
