ClassTax Xue's dashboard

I don't think we should give @Nethead the calendar....He really stirs up the time lines with his "Time Travel" :-P LOL – ClassTax Xue, on September 04, 2008 20:51

I usually avoid sticking my nose in, and am not here to offer any opinion, but I think sharing two points, one fact and one observation, may give some clarity to this issue.

Here is the explanation from Plurk's blog on the block feature:
"A blocked user won’t be able to see your profile, follow you, respond to your plurks or befriend you."
It is very simple to understand that when *you* block someone, they cannot see or respond to your plurks. (*That* is the block working) Of course you will be able to see and respond to theirs if they have not blocked *you*. Your only option is to not follow their plurks, if you don't care to follow their plurks. Simple concept...
If they are bothering you in someone else's threads, ask that friend to block the user also if they're deemed to be a problem there...

On the 'how to block' issue...
I originally thought that we could only block a user once they had responded to one of our threads, but could not find the option to block *any* user I found the need to at any time preemptively. However, just recently I *was* able to use the drop-down box next to a user name in someone else's thread and the block option *was* there, so I was able to block them before they ever struck my time line.
This feature has appeared randomly, so I do not know what the specific criteria is that will allow or show the 'block-option' next to a user name, but I hope that might be explained further in the future.

Feel free to contact me if you care to discuss this or any other features further, or just to say hello.

Good Day, Plurkers!!
