I agree that making a post allows ANYONE to respond on that thread, as long as it is not breaking DS TOS.

To me, that is one of the great things on DS, you can get different opinions from different people and MANY answers which can be helpful.

That is...unless you only want answers that agree with everything you say in your post...VERY unrealistic really and doesnt happen in real life, so the internet in general, as well as DS is NO different.

If you are not seeking other peoples responses or opinions, well then maybe posting on an open forum is not a good idea.

Please remember that in a severely depressed state of mind some people are going to say irrational things so we should all make allowances.

I am with the others, I think the old fashioned sense of the word 'ignore' should be applied in these situations. We shouldn't have to have every single thing blocked and be treated like babies lest we throw our toys out of the pram - we should try to be mature adults who can accept that people may have a bad day or ongoing problems, especially on this site, and act considerately of each other, or follow the old saying 'if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all'.

Ultimately you cannot stop these people - if this is implemented people will just rejoin DS under a different name or find some other way around it.

Pretty old post.
