Description
A lot of my friends and watchers have been asking me how to block other deviants who have been harassing them and rather than go though the explanation over and over again I decided to make a visual guide to help anyone out who feels they need to block someone who is bothering them.
Also just so you know once you block someone you are in turn blocked by them automatically. Fair’s fair kids.
You can undo a block on anyone by repeating the steps I’ve shown and removing their name from the block list and pressing Save.
If you unblock someone you can not block them again for another 48 hours if I recall right. So don’t think you can unblock someone, troll them and then block them immediately and get away with it. You won’t.

A new layout doesn't matter. The block system still works the same as it always did.

I'm going to share with my 13 year old daughter. She innocently made a joke to some 30 year old lady and she ragged my daughter out even though my daughter told her she was only joking

good. I hate when assholes bully little kids on here.

I pretty much told her to back off my daughter and made her aware that she's only 13 and she meant no harm. She hasn't had the courage to respond back to an adult about this issue. Gonna check to see if she blocked me...lol

Good. And if she blocked you just block her back. This way if she takes the block off she can't bother you.

I'm not worried about her bothering me. If she does, i will. Just curious as to if she had or not because i really expected her to reply

Some are trolls that live for keeping arguments going and other just leave a shit comment and then ditch and block so you can't reply. They don't understand that when they do that their messages can be reported as spam and if enough people report their message as spam it gets their account shut down.

I'm not bothering to keep it going with that person. I made my point, now i'm all set with that. But i'm picking up what you're laying down.

If you can't leave a comment on someone's wall, does that mean they blocked you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yes. If it says "Deviously Denied" anywhere on their page where you would normally be able to leave messages then it means you were blocked
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes! That's exactly what it reads. Oh well....just a scaredy cat then, in my book...lol

Its how some people are on here. They start shit and then block someone the second they're confronted.

this thing help me how to unblock someone

The only way you can unblock someone is if you blocked them first and they didn't block you in return. If you blocked someone simply remove their name from your block list. Just be aware that once you do you won't be able to block them again for 24 hours.

I'm trying to block this person, but the Block setting isn't working for me. Is there something going on??

The site might be updating and maybe that's causing it to glitch. How many times have you tried blocking this same account?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Three to five times. I've tried it today about three times, and twice the last time I tried to block him (which was over a month or two ago). I'm probably going to report the account (I'm doing this as of now unless you want me to do something else). He's making me feel awkward, and I don't want him to watch me and leave me alone.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
is he creating new accounts with the same name to get around the block? Because once you block someone, unless you erase the name from your settings it won't unblock him.
If he keeps getting around the block report him. Also do you have a link to his page?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, I have the link
The thing is... I followed your steps (multiple times), and every time I check his page, I don't see the "Deviously Denied" area. And don't worry, I've already reported him.
Here's the link to his account: zonezzz-90000.deviantart.com

I blocked him just now and it worked.
When your adding his name to the block list does it look exactly like this?
zonezzz-90000
because if it does it will block him. If your pasting a link with his name or a web address it won't block him.
You have to just put the name alone in the blocked users window. Copy and paste zonezzz-90000 from my message into that window and click save. Then go to his page. It should say Deviously Denied near any comment window on his main page or under any of his deviations.
