Gotta Love The Block Feature...

Not On This Account Anymore!!!
...so people can get in the last word and block someone before response so they can look oh so big and strong!
I think it's hilarious. I laugh whenever someone blocks me in mid-conversation, either here or on Deviantart. Especially if I'm just trying to have a casual (or what I see as casual) debate with someone and they flip shit and get defensive and finger-bang the block feature until it can't walk straight anymore.
In my opinion, if you can't handle the drama, stay off the internet...or don't start it in the first place.
Love,
Champ

That person, obviously, is a child. Maybe not physically, but mentally they are.
And only an idiot would block you. If they block you they can't see your submissions. Personally I'd never want to do that, cause I like your style and particularly your icons/gifs you make. :P
But you're right, you can see them. But block and watch should be pretty much mutually exclusive, imo.
that way it'd give people the option to still see the person's art and journals if watched, but not be talked to if blocked. after all, if you really don't want to see someone's art or journals anymore, just unwatch them. *nod*
Just my opinion lol. <3
And honestly, drama can be quite...entertaining sometimes.
...
WAITAMINUTE!
I try and argue/debate like a normal human being, and if it gets out of hand, I drop it.
Lol I was however preemptively blocked by someone who drew hate art for a friend of mine so that I couldn't come in and defend them with rationale and logic.
Maturity at work, let me tell you.
I just tend to ignore those ones haha.
I hate people like that. They're just too scared to carry on the argument.
This other art site I'm on, there's this woman there who will block anyone if their username or behavior looks like a troll, even if they are not even a troll or spammer.
I don't block people. I just wait out the argument until one or both parties get bored.
She blocked my friend on there just because she gave her a critique, just generally trying to be helpful. Apparently if you don't like her art, she blocks you, lol
Some people are just too touchy.
So if you don't want to deal with 'trolls' might as well block me now. Haha, it might come to you in the future!
Since apparently troll = someone with a differing opinion.
Someone expressing their personal opinion in a reasonable, decent way is by no means a troll.
My submissions are clearly labeled with their content in the thumbnail and key words, if people are easily offended they shouldn't click further if they see a warning about content they don't like.
The end.
Wouldn't see this kind of fuss over a candle. Jack, my best friend, was just telling me the ot
My favorite moment had to be when
Moments later he posted a new journal that I felt the need to comment on, so I typed up my response, hit Post, and BAM, I was blocked.
I just giggled. It kind of made my day.
What a load of gay.
If someone strikes you as a jackass early on during a discussion, keep it over their head so they think they're winning. Let them go on and make their ridiculous point, save the conversation log, let it age like fine wine, and enjoy it with friends.
Fine reading, indeed. I enjoy a good laugh.
