Is there a way to block members?

[spunkloaf]

I used to be all angst ridden on this forum. Until I chilled-out and started talking to my foes here on tPF like I would if I was sitting across the table from them, I was a miserable SOB here. I have seen you running around here the last couple days fighting and fending off. it is up to you.

No.

What is your deal guy?

I am sorry if I should know this, or if there are instructions elsewhere...but is there a way to block or ignore members? I have somebody following me around the forum and harassing me, and now he is inundating my inbox. It sucks, because if I had done this kind of thing, I'd have moderators all over my ass, and I'd be suspended from the forum.

Anybody?

To add someone to ignore...

Usually the stuff can be found in the settings of a given website as is the case with this one...

As is usually the case these threads go down hill, hit bottom and then dig down deeper. Humans are funny creatures.

"Every minute of every hour of every day you are making the world, just as you are making yourself, and you might as well do it with generosity and kindness and style." Rebecca Solnit

Ms Solnit is a fascinating writer, I first came across her in Harper's Magazine. So to change course and bring us back to the political, see this fascinating piece on our Pres.

"Writing and reading decrease our sense of isolation. They deepen and widen and expand our sense of life: they feed the soul. When writers make us shake our heads with the exactness of their prose and their truths, and even make us laugh about ourselves or life, our buoyancy is restored. We are given a shot at dancing with, or at least clapping along with, the absurdity of life, instead of being squashed by it over and over again. It’s like singing on a boat during a terrible storm at sea. You can’t stop the raging storm, but singing can change the hearts and spirits of the people who are together on that ship.” Anne Lamott

Put each other on ignore, please.

Put each other on ignore, please.

I did. He keeps talking $#@! about me to other people, and it's kind of hard to ignore him when they respond to him with quotes. There's no excuse for that, they are just trying to drive another liberal opinion away so they can keep this as a right wing echo chamber.

[spunkloaf]

When I respond to that kind of behavior, I do so with strong words...and then I AM THE ONE who takes the fall for it. This is $#@!ed up.

You don't see me having this problem with other people, like Peter. Just resister, and his pals. They are doing it on purpose.

It has always been my opinion that if you have to ignore someone or block someone then you have issues of your own.
