Just from how you worded it, you sounded like you put them aside is all. Many people don’t know that blocking on here isn’t what they’re used to. Not that I think either one is in the best spirit of discussion.
My capacity to pay attention to things is limited so I prefer to not waste it on stuff that isn’t important or interesting. When an user demonstrates incapability for civil discussion I choose to dismiss them entirely. I’m perfectly aware that by doing so I’m also filtering out a ton of potentially valuable content but I simply don’t care because there’s an effectively infinite amount of it.
What’s your point? What else would blocking be for than to stop me from seeing messages from the people I’ve blocked?
