It's hard to annoy me and even harder to make me mad,but if you are going to send me spam messages that will do it.I received a message today from a new user she doesn't even have any discussions but she sent me a message about a website that makes money. I don't know this person I'm certainly not going to use their website. Does this constitute blocking?

@akalinus I checked her out too. LOL You would think someone would at least make the effort to interact with all of us before deciding to spam us. LOL Besides, can you imagine how long it took her to bring up all those individuals just to PM.

I recieved a spam message too, but I donĀ“t know how to block her or report her as she has not written any post yet.

She still has a block button doesn't she? I don't know, but I think this is ridiculous. If I wanted spam I would have put my email on a post for everyone to send it too. HAHAHA The least you can do is interact with someone first before you do that.

I think I got the same message - I copy/pasted it and sent it to admin. They will deal with it. They think they've got around the 'reporting' business by sending a pm, as there isn't a report button on messages. They've got another think coming.

I can't believe how many people got this. I thought I was one of a few selected privileged recipients. I'd like to know how much time they spent sending this to everyone. Don't you have to select people one by one to PM? I don't have that much time in a day.

@cindiowens I got another one today. This time from Australia. I doubt it since it was Mikiko as a name. LOL Again with no activity. LOL

@mommaj I guess if there's a will, there's a way.

I blocked them. This site isn't meant for malarky like that. Didn't take me long to block them. I have a trigger finger.

I've just checked out my messages since I read your post and I had three of these irritations sent to me.

I got two messages the other day same dumb mess. I haven't blocked them but nothing more from them. They could have been kicked out here already for all I know.

@fishtiger58 This has been such a calming place. It's nice to have a site to go to to relax.

@Nishkriti That's what I was thinking last night. LOL Maybe I wouldn't have been so mad if I wasn't so disappointed it wasn't what I was waiting on.

@mommaj this really feels bad.when you're actually waiting for some one and some one else just comes out of nowhere with something stupid.

I think this definitely constitutes blocking. I don't have any issues blocking other users. If I'm not enjoying their company and they're bothering me, then I simply press the block button. It has nothing to do with my morals. I just press that block button and I don't have to deal with the person anymore.

@lexinonomous That's a funny way to look at it. I guess they could keep us entertained.

@mommaj That's true! I normally block the spam posters, but it might be interesting to keep the annoying people around. It's a nice way to keep up with others are posting responses to.

I ignore them but they do annoy me too, it is bad taste to use one site to promote another or even tempt people away by promising greater returns. I thought this kind of thing was off the limits.

No, it doesn't, I believe you should just reply by thanking her and telling her that you're not intrested
