But I have a certain person who has me filtered, and they complain that I make a big deal out of it. Since whenever I tag them, they think I'm attention seeking.
It's more what would be a simple PM or a 2 second blog comment is now a blog.
What if hypothetically, that's my account? I have no way to directly respond to them without a blog.
And THAT is my issue with petty filtering. It's like this person wants me to blog about them...wait....I think I've figured it out!
I still refuse to petty-filter them back. It is tempting. They comment on my random top blogs and demand I ignore theirs? It's a bit unfair. 馃槀
As long as a user who has petty-filtered me gets random top blogs, I'll keep making this point.
If you have a legitimate reason, I'd respect that and keep my distance. If I traumatised you, if I deeply offended you, I would absolutely stay away. And feel horrible for making you feel that way.
Here are reasons I've historically filtered people:
(1) 2 people spammed over 50 comments on a blog of mine years ago.
(2) The porn posting multies
I never comment on your blogs. I plus them but don鈥檛 have this secret desire to follow you around or ask for any attention from you at all. Yet again your passive aggressive blog is unnecessary and the reason I probably have you filtered.
Yes you have insulted me in the past - probably why you were originally filtered, but tbh I don鈥檛 actually check my filter list every week to add/delete people, because I don鈥檛 have time and really I don鈥檛 matter in the grand scheme of things. I am one user. Surely you have hundreds of other people you can blog about or plus/neg or whatever it is you want validated from me.
Hypothetically if it was you then you would just reply using that account. Easy solution.
I have removed you from my filter list, but I would still appreciate that you stop tagging me, I am not looking for attention nor top blogs, I had a genuine reason for that user to contact me.
Me2013 I have no recollection of ever insulting you, but I can say as a fact - I have never filtered you.
If I did insult you at some point, I apologise.
But you must have me confused with someone else regarding the filtering.
I have blogs you've commented on. If you want the receipts, I can show you later because I don't delete my blogs.
Hope you managed to get in contact with the user. 馃槉 It looked like one of those blogs drawing attention to a funny multi.
I appreciate you unfiltering me (going by your word here). It just means if I want to bring something to your attention, I'll PM you to avoid mass attention. 馃憤馃徑
