Don’t think so

Nope. Selective blindness must be employed sometimes.

Nope. But I know of whom you speak. Doing my best to not engage.

No. We’ve had requests for blocking capabilities before but it’s never happened unfortunately. You just have to practice ignoring.

Poke out your eyes.

I think I know a few here I would like to ignore. Their comments are consistently illogical.

You can’t. That’s one thing I like about this site. You can try a site like SimilarWorlds, where you are free to block up to 500 users if you want. Here you just have to practice your ignoring skills. :)

What you can do is “stop following” and then soon, out of sight, out of mind.

No, it isn’t possible to block a Jelly or prevent that person from PMing you.

I have a very short list of Jellies whom I choose to avoid. I don’t answer their questions or respond to their answers. Think about how you (don’t) interact with a mean or annoying neighbor IRL – you don’t initiate any contact, and if you’re about to leave your home but see the person outside, maybe you wait until s/he is gone. It’s all good.

Sounds like you need to practice the old trick of covering your eyes and ears and screaming “la la la la”.

Btw, it’s Jellies, not Flutherites.

I am not a native Flutherian speaker. Besides, I never liked the word “jelly”....

Freedom of speech is a bitch, ain’t it???

@filmfann I’m pretty sure Flutherite came before Jellies. Neither is wrong.
