In case anyone is wondering, you cannot block yourself (I just tried).
Otherwise, I would not be able to post in this forum as I created the content.
but that would be silly.
My middle name is silly.
As in stats_silly_man.
ROFL!!!!
I have 58 members blocked, since Jul 31, 2007.
58 is the most common 2 digit number
is it?
I don't know how, but I haven't seen any yet that I would anyhow.
artfizz... that is awesome that you made that, despite it being of absolutely no use. lol. cool.
And i never thought chess players would be the sorts to care about aging...chess gets better as you get older, I suspect.
This would have been awesome in its heights of uselessness ...
A person of like mind. If you can put it in excel and make a chart, life is good.

Well, one blocked me after telling me to "see a doctor" and when I went to his profile, I was blocked. The other user, I was pwning in this chess game and I accidently gave away my Queen and then he won, bragged about how he dominated me and telling me that his style was to kill off my pieces one by one, and then he blocked me so he would have the last word. Yeah, strange, I know.

Wait, let me answer your original question: "How do you know ADK?".
There isn't any way to know unless you go to their profile and you see that you are blocked. I don't think chess.com created a list of people of have blocked you.

Boy! Stuff like that makes you want to reach through the computer the punch them does it not.
It is common for some members of a community this large to not like each other, but "smack talking" and disrespecting the game of chess is going too far.
Chess, after all, is the one thing we all have in common.
modernchess wrote: I would argue against such an assumption. Being of a young age myself, I could tentatively class most of those near my age into two categories:
Player A- Enjoys insulting others, loves a good argument.
Player B- Calm, tolerant, and generally silent.
Both of these players are usually inclined to not press that block button.

Peaks below mid-thirties. Pretty conclusive, I should say.
I have 0 blocks!!!!
I guess you have one now. 
Did I at least get your age correct?

Why?
It's possible that someone had blocked me but I didn't block anything. I'm actually not sure how to do so!
Yes, my age is correct.

I'm implying that you will now block me for getting your number of blocks wrong.
p.s. Quoting a table never gets formatted properly.

I've had people who did worse things and I didn't block them ;)
Hmmm... I was kind of classifying 30+ as, well, old-ish. (I know, I can just hear your hearts breaking, sorry.)
90 posts and no flaming.
We are going for a record!!!
