Yesterday, I got this PM from Award Guy:

At first I was like, "What?" After a second PM from this Award Guy, I realized this is one of those skullzy award things like you see on network television when they have nothing better to show.

Now, I never block anyone on a forum. Even if they piss me off. Because I want to know where replies came from and if I don't see the original post, there's a gap in the conversation. However, I blocked Award Guy. I kind of figured the only thread he was going to be in was the award thing thread - a thread in which I won't be anyway - so this was just preventing me from receiving more annoying PM's from the guy.

So, I guess I should come up with a topic to make this a valid thread.

Have you ever blocked anyone on this forum? Any important people? Any of those seasonal people like the Candle Jack or Award Guy? Has blocking these people ever caused any unexpected problems for you on the forum? I'm sure there are more relevant questions that I'm overlooking, so answer those as well.

Happy Thanksgiving. (Now If I Only Didn't Have To Work Today.)
