> He did nothing that Alex hasn't done recently to Gabbi - yet she didn't receive a block. I don't think she even got a PBC. In her case, I don't recall there being a post she needed to respond to in order to give her side of things as in this case either.
I didn't address or direct a post to her after she requested me not to.
That is the crucial difference far as I can see.
A while ago someone said quite a lot of stuff to me and then ended the post with a 'please do not post to me' request.
I replied.
I got a PBC.
A while later Dr Bob checked the boards and not realising the PBC was for that post - he blocked me.
2nd infraction - blocking.
Larry has posted to Emmy a couple times since her 'do not post to me request'.
I'm sorry Larry, but what did you expect???
You can respond in general terms.
To anyone who is following the thread.
'Do not post to me' requests are fairly worthless given that you can respond in general terms.
But people do insist on handing them out...
And...
People will get blocked if they continue to address posts to people who have requested they not do that.
