Yeah, there's a small handful that have blocked me too. We are often on opposite sides of issues - which could make for lively debate. But, I think they aren't as interested in debate as they are having their egos stroked.
Not to worry Random - there are lot's of opinions here on Amirite. And there are plenty of people of all kinds with a variety of opinions. I'm finding that as time passes everyone else is more and more willing to engage in conversation.
That is one way of never losing a debate. Just block all of those that may disagree with you. Then you can make back-stabbing comments about those people you have blocked. Sounds familiar huh.
Sounds very familiar, especially when they make comments about someone's cleavage. But that's jealousy coming from someone who has none....you think? lol lol
I'm sure that would get very lonely, talking to oneself all the time.
I've been blocked by people who have just joined and I've never said a word to them...go figure....mind you we nearly always find out they were socks down the line...the others who have blocked me, don't realize how happy they make me...
Blocking is OK when it happens over a period of time. I have 11 people blocked but I have been here over 2 years. There are people who join and block at least that many (or more) without ever making a single post or comment.
Yes, that has happened to me numerous times. Though I figure if they are willing to block me based on almost no interaction, I'm not missing much. Good riddance, as far as I'm concerned. I don't debate with juvenile people who balk at the first challenge to their views.
Many times, on another site that lots of us were formerly members of. Not so much on this one, although I've been blocked over even the most civil of disagreements.
I did notice that a member who has most everyone blocked, made one of their brief appearances yesterday. It is obvious, that that individual has no interest in discussing anything on their goading posts.
I saw your comments to that person.....when they know they can't converse intelligently with you or anyone else, then they block. They don't want to show their ignorance.
Well, it's been a long time since I've conversed with the person I was referring to. As a matter of fact, I don't think I ever have. That individual blocks just about everyone who even remotely disagrees with them, before they have a chance to "converse". :)
I was referring to a different member, Starz, one who has blocked just about everyone on the site.
I do know that there are others who tend to block at the drop of a hat.
Of course there is drama on here. You have a troll making comments like bisexuals have ** with children and pets and you have people who should know better agreeing with him. ** this.
Yes she is right ignorant stupid comments like that have no place here no matter your personal preferences we are all human beings and deserve to be treated with dignity respect and compassion but like always there are some ignorant Neanderthals who just have be stupid and stir things up with dumb lameass comments
There will never be a day that I simply agree with someone just because that is what they want.
Love me or hate me but at the end of the day I will always be me.

I have been blocked by friends of someone who has blocked me even though I've never had any direct conversations with them. Their loss.

Nope, just blocked by the same person constantly. I highly suggest they never unblock me, it's in their best interest.

Let's not go down this road again. If someone blocks you, it is because they have better things to do with their time, then fight.
