He can by adding to the list by blocking them Undecided

RookedOnChess

Ah, but he can't actually control the group itself. Not everyone's going to be joining the group, but I think it's hilarious! lol

blackfirestorm

Indeed Smile

I'll bet WinDope used up his entire allotment of 200 blocks within his first week after opening his new account.  Don't forget, he already had an enemies list he'd been creating during his previous account, so I'm sure he hit the ground running by blocking people he already knew.

blackfirestorm

I don't know what his old account is

Here listen to this ... its so cool

Um, the video is not available in my country, does that mean it is BLOCKED in my country?

RookedOnChess

LOL!!!!! Good one, BigOto! I found it "blocked" too! lol

I'm not necessarily proud, but I've never blocked anybody, and probaby never will.

Also finding it funny that Windows is now posting totally useless threads, which I can only assume is an attempt to reignite the attention he loves so much Wink

Are you serious?! Windows^&*7, has posted useful threads in the past? What the hell is happening?!!!!

kco

   'useful thread' ?.... like ""How do we capitalize things in chess? Some people capitalize all the piece names and sides (like White Rook, White's Rook), or the piece names (white Rook), while others like me prefer not to capitalize them (white rook)."

and  "What about groups only we (premium members) can join? This is like premium-only tournaments." knowing this can be done, geesh.

question: is there way to tell who you've blocked/are blocked by? Is there a way to unblock people?

 

Sometimes I block people if they abort multiple games in a row against me (cause I just want to play already)

Cystem_Phailure

It's easy to see who you've blocked-- just look under the Privacy section of your account settings,

You can see if you're blocked by an individual member by going to his/her profile page and looking at the Notes section-- if you're blocked, it will say that you can't leave any Notes to that member.  However, I don't think there's any way to see a list that would show all members who have blocked you.

" I don't think there's any way to see a list that would show all members who have blocked you."   would it be a good idea to be able to see that ? To me I don't care.

I think the block feature on any site is very useful, especially ones where swearing is common. I block people all the time on YouTube for swearing at me or advertising some "Earn Subscribers" website. Thankfully this isn't so much of a problem on Chess.com, but I have given quite a few block "warnings" here. I would not be happy if YouTube had a block limit.


 Wow.

Me either-- I was responding to a question from someone who asked if it was possible to get that information.

psyduck

Thanks, I've blocked roughly 50 people. more than i was expecting. Most are probably inactive

I mean he often recedes into the background, only occasionally popping up to make comments on other topics.  It's rare he'll start two threads on the same day, and seems to show he's fishing for attention again.
