Is it possible to block someone from seeing your posts on the forums. I think that would fix a lot of the issues I've been having with rude people getting offended at my opinion and personally attacking me as a result. If it doesn't exist I'd like to suggest it.

That would be a nice feature! I've had issues with others here in the forums. I was told though its just part of social networking. You put your opinions out there and some agree and some don't. Yeah people can be rude. It would be nice if instead people could just agree to disagree rather than taking things personal or attacking others. I don't think a feature like your suggesting exist. Your best bet is to ignore the ignorance of others an report them when they are rude.

Sorry guys. There isn't a way. Mingle likes open forums. Just use the report button and the mods will look into it as soon as we can. We are pretty good at keeping the forums civil :wink:

Hi all,this is a great topic. Cival liberties or freedom of expresion can be a tricky business.we have grown acustom to other social encounters wich have a disrespectful nature about them. Positive tolerance leads to peace and harmony.And opens the door to positive opertunities.

Open forums are fine, but I think if you block someone they shouldn't be able to see what you post either. Some members have a tendency to harass the people they don't like. The mods are good at removing posts, but they can't stop the initial insult that way. I'd rather not have to deal with it at all then have to complain about people harassing me constantly. 80% of my posts encourage hostile replies from specific people, if it continues I'm gonna give this up. I didn't join this site to be publicly humiliated...
