Now for Some Drama... Got Blocked for Disagreeing on a Blog Post · 11:04pm Oct 21st, 2021
This is the blog post.
Basically, 611fan posted a blog linking to another forum where someone was complaining about the Loud House fandom. That other person was ranting about how many Loud House fans get way too worked up about the show and its minor faults, and then compared those crazy fans to bronies haha.
And then I commented on 611fan's blog: "That guy isn't wrong lol."
I'm paraphrasing, of course, since I don't remember my exact words.
I only post this because I'm always astounded by people who block others for the smallest and dumbest reasons. Like, what are you gonna do when someone is actually bullying you, and it's in real life in a place where you have no escape or "block" button?
Endure it? That’s what I did back when-
Or like some people say ask for help and tell a trusted grown up or friend
I love how the forum linked in the blog is about a person ranting about how people get worked up over minor things, and the person you’re dealing with here does exactly that just because you had a different opinion.
Not the best case of irony, but 🤷🏻

Lol good point.
Like, dude, I disagreed with you about a show and fandom I clearly love. I didn't make fun of your mom or something like that

I've never been a fan of enduring a problem. You're just allowing it to continue and essentially giving it permission to get worse.

611fan? Or someone else?

Eh-
Besides getting bad memories from bowling and losing my favourite drink bottle (wich the episode “Road To Friendship” where Trixie lost her wagon reminded me of that incident, R.I.P my bottle) and feeling hopeless for a while it didn’t do much...
Well... the bully made me feel like I had to hate the Mario series, I treat their name like a swear these days.
And also that year I questioned why I was a fan of the Animal Crossing series...
But it didn’t get worse, I won!
I became a fan of MLP again and I’m not being forced to bowl one stupid ball towards a bunch of stupid-
Uh... sorry, that got a bit long

He’s right.
5598601
Lol. I thought he was cool with you since he was posting random history facts on your page.
5598603
...
5598602
No need to apologize haha.
So the bully picked on you for liking stuff like Mario?
5598607
Was it something I said?
5598609
Not really... they just made me feel like it...
The teachers loved them!
Me making music with my awesome bottle with them in the room ended up with it all gone! Apparently I hurt them!
Really, what I feel/felt towards him is basically close to what Trixie felt against Twilight between “Boast Busters” and “Magic Duel”
Minus the jealously
5598613
...
Yes
5598616
What’s wrong?
5598619
You said he was right about something?
5598620
He just said that enduring bullying would just allow it to continue and get worse. I just thought he had a point.
5598621
Eh... enduring mine didn’t have much negative effects
(I wrote about it earlier)
5598623
I know. I saw. You replied to him.
5598625
Yeahs
I've only ever had to block two people on this site, and I'm rather proud of that. One was a burner account seven to eight years ago that was posting site-breaking comments that injected scripts into every page they were on, displaying an un-blockable frame that said "Un-ban Kaidan!" The other was a guy who argued at me, blocked me, and then continued spamming me with angry private messages once he was safely hunkered down and protected from conversation.
I feel like blocking people just for their opinions is a far too easy way to isolate one's self into an echo chamber, and the people most prone to doing it are the weakest kind of person. There are some users on this site who you'd least expect it of, as they've carefully manufactured their public image, but it starts to crumble once you look behind the curtain. Words won't kill you even if you disagree with them, and what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger; blocking them out naturally produces the opposite effect.
Unfortunately this is all too common. For the Naruto manga/anime; the character Hinata Hyuga is hated because of how she was created. Go online and post any images of her nude or otherwise and watch the hate and insults immediately start.
Oh Celestia.

You can't even blame me for posting a dumb remark this time lol.
The most benign comments can get you blocked, which always surprises me.

I know...
Agreed. I hate getting blocked after a misunderstanding... I personally think the block button should be blocked... the report button is there for people who won't leave you alone. And that one is much more fun
