Blocking Help

Answer

You can block members by gender, location, marital status, or age range. But once in a while, you may want to contact someone outside your location or age range.

If you do email someone that you have blocked, then they won't be able to contact you back.

So we have designed an "override" where if you contact them first, then they can contact you back.

Sometimes members get likes and respond with an email that says "I'm not interested". This email will trigger the "override" and allow them to email you.

Answer

Members filter their mail based on criteria that is important to them. It could be Location, Age Range, Marital Status, or Relationship Type that blocks mail from you.

To view a member's contact requirements:

-On their profile page, scroll down and click on the MORE button.
-Then click on CONTACT REQUIREMENTS in the dropdown list.

That will show the reason, that you are blocked from contacting them.

If they are in your area, there will be a "Like" button on their profile. You can click this button, and then they may decide to write back, even if you don't meet their Block Settings.

Answer

No, you cannot block people from viewing your profile.

You can block people from sending you Email and eCards.

You can also block groups of people from specific locations, ages, etc. from sending you Email and eCards.

It's best to take the Views lightly and ignore those in whom you have no interest.

Each person that views your profile, can only show up in your Who's Viewed Me List ONE TIME.... no matter how many times they view your profile.

Answer

When you block someone, they will no longer be able to send you Mails and eCards. If they try to send you a Message or eCard they will get a sign that they have been blocked – so they will know you don’t appreciate what they have previously sent.

The Mail and eCards they previously sent you will still remain, but you can delete them if you want.

They can still view your profile and send you a "Like". But each member can only send ONE Like, so they can only do this once.

Answer

The best way to handle unwanted mail, is to Block the member that you do not want to communicate with.

The only way you can block someone, is if they send you an Email or an eCard. Otherwise there is no reason to preemptively block them and fill up your Blocked List.

To Block someone that has sent you an Email or eCard:

When you are viewing a Mail or eCard they sent you, click on the " Block this Member" button in the right sidebar. at the bottom of the page.

The next time they try to write to you, they will get a message saying they have been blocked - so they will know you don’t appreciate what they have previously sent.

If the member has displayed bad manners or bad taste, the Block feature is the best solution. However, you should report anyone who you suspect of scam or illegal activity to: Report Abuse.
