blocking people

How much of a coward do you have to be to block someone commenting on your blog? ....I mean, surely that's what blogs are for no?
Post Comment

Comments (14)

It's hilarious when the person doing the blocking spends all their time talking about sinister forces that want to take away their freedom, freedom of speech is for them it seems but not for everyone.
I don't know how you can block people from commenting on blogs???dunno
eYe made a calculated stab at that Q.
Over @ crypto...the Duckie blog.
Dan,
When you set up a blog it asks you if you want comments or not. Anyway you are too much of a lady to do that to anyone...blushing
Oh I see...
But that's blocking EVERYBODY and not one blogger in particular.


As it happens, I did disallow comments after one of my blogs had run its course.

Even ladies do that! wink
Hey Bo...
I can vouch for Snowy as I know who he is and his photo used to be there ....some time ago.

As for managing several accounts...ummm...I personally think that one is about his limit.

At least that's what my instincts tell me..dunno
Dan,
You can delete someone's comments in particular as well.
I think it can make sense when somebody comes on to flood it,
be disrespectful on purpose and by no means constructive in their criticism.

You are also fundamentally wrong regarding blogs meant to be an open forum.
But you are right that it usually is that way regardless; open for discussion to some degree.

Blogs are first and foremost a chance for the blog poster to flag his view.
If a discussion follows it should in my view be mastered/moderated by the O.P.
Totally up to the Blog maker to remove comments thus keep the blog on the track he/she prefer.

If you want a 100% free float of viewpoints at any given moment use the Forums for that.

My 2cents
Quite right Dan, one is about as much as I can handle. Some people of low intelligence like to think I have more than one profile,,,laugh

Why would anyone want more than one profile anyway? surely one is enough to make one's point?
You don't have to be vouched by anyone, Snow. You've as much right to be here as anybody else. That's what freedom is all about.
Fair comments grand, it's just I prefer to let everyone have their say. We are all adults (in age terms anyway).

What's really ironic is when someone bans you from their blog and then goes and comments on your own blog!!!!! I guess you have to have a few brain cells to understand irony, not everyone gets it!

Let me add, this was hardly an issue 10years ago when I was here last.
People behaved mostly
but once in a while it was needed also then.
Thank you Ches, it's water off a duck's back. The day I start to worry about such trivialities will be a sad day.
Ches, you have a valid point there. But, there is a small little but...
msm and pc tries to silence the voices of this worlds Bos.
No wonder they get on the edge somewhat then.
In the longer run some bridges must be built.
