Is that a bit of goading going on there lollie? Hope not as this is meant to be a friendly introduction thread - a welcome mat to new posters.
If I've got wrong and you just want to block this poster just follow these instructions:
'Click the Profile button found in the top menu bar and then on your profile page click the Edit Profile button. You'll then be taken to the Edit Profile & Settings page; once here, click on the Privacy tab. On the privacy page, look for the Member Block List option found at the bottom of the page with a search field. In the search box, begin to type either the username or the display name of the member that you want to block and you'll see some search results appear as you type. Once you see the member you want to block appear, click on their micro-profile in the search results list. Once you have selected a member account to block, 4 check boxes will appear asking you which interactions you want to prevent with the member you chose. Check the boxes next to the interactions you want to prevent, and when you have made your selections click the Save Privacy Settings button found at the bottom of the page to complete the process.'

Nice one Roy. Does that seem a bit wieldy though?

Not really sure of the point of Shivah joining a forum of very little numbers, then proceeding to block 2 posters! Each to their own I guess

Am I able to block Flid and Gawns on here? Interesting Roy extends a welcome and this poster immediately addresses another as "flid"

To 'lollie': I've moved rather than deleted your latest kiddie club pollution. If you want to stay here and contribute your political/social views courteously you will remain more than welcome, but if you continue to post trolling garbage you will find your welcome mat removed. Your choice - you can produce sensible posts as you know. He gets away with it constantly in the other place posting as either flid or blah. Roy, is this the sort of culture you want to engender here. A poster joining solely to abuse two posters from the other place and refer to their poster names there in derogatory terms? Do you want this place to be an angry and abusive platform for having a go at others?

I had no idea what flid or blah refers to - still not sure I do. But let's be open on this lollie, - there is no secret about the bile that flies in both directions (from here and TF) - and so it's possibly hard to avoid that animosity spilling over. I'm working on the tried and tested principle of 'benefit of doubt' and I've pm'd Shivah. I'd be lying if I said Iwas hugely optimistic but I live in hope that topics can be debated on here without the depressing baggage of the other place. Let's see how it goes.

I hope so too and am happy to stick around for sensible dialogue probably only really with you where possible but it would be good if shivah could refrain from making derogatory comments and indulging in puerile name calling. If posters are this forum merely to make a point about blocking posters who post on this sparse forum and to goad them, you have to ask yourself if you want this place to go in your words, the same way as TF.

Well the other place at the moment seems to be spending it's time just defending Sid and Lawns (who I believe are probably the same person posting as 2 different accounts.) That's an interesting notion, - I'd not considered any connection between the two. Although lawns (lollie on here) can be 'unpredictable' and lately disruptive, he doesn't strike me as having the sheer childish nastiness that pervcat has on TF (and occasionally on here in various guises). Now been threatened with a ban for mentioning it in another place.
