It bothers me that we ever need to block someone. We are all adults here, but everyone here is intelligent and often opinionated. Some people have a hard time dealing with the conflict that may ensue and use blocking as a way to remove themselves from the intellectual fray. If it is someone's choice to do that, I will not criticize. I just am hopeful it is not me being blocked. I think as a site we should provide whatever service possible (Gav knows what is possible and practical) as long as it make a member more comfortable. I personally can not imagine blocking a fellow member myself, but that is just me and I would not judge other's actions just because they are different.
Thank you Andy and Justine for your input. I agree with you in many ways, but not all. That does not make me think less of you as friends or people. I find our differences to be a good thing. Knowing you both have made me a better person. You have both improved my life with your wonderful literary work and your friendship.
