    Is there a way to block members?

    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?

    You really can't handle that without blocking whoever it is?

    What if he accidentally says something worth reading? You would miss it.

    You can tell people to stop sending you PM's or use the ignore button. Or quit being a hypocrite, any 3 options work.

    PS, if you tell people to stop sending you PM's, you might consider not starting it to begin with.

    You can place him or her on ignore so that you won't interact with him or her on the forum, and as for your inbox if you feel you're being harassed you can report his or her private messages.

    Tried the ignore button once, it hampered conversation, now I just gloss over it, I can ignore by my own choice.

    Click Settings, top right corner, scroll down to My Setting, Edit Ignore List.

    Or, click on a member name to go their Profile and under their avatar is "Add to Ignore List."

    I suggest you report that person. Maybe even quote them in this thread to validate your claim!
