Here's what I know about blocking people. Let's say you block me. What happens is that you can't see me online, and I can't see you. If at the time you're going to block me and you see me online, once you block me, it looks as if I've signed offline and that's what I would see of you. The only way I can think someone could assume you blocked them would be, using the same example I've given... Let's say, Pip is online and I ask if he's seen you online and he tells me you are right now, but you have me blocked. Then I can wonder what's up... Make some sense
( ... )
Another way is that if the person has more than one screen name, and has you listed on both, and you don't know the other screen name and block the one you DO know, they'll know b/c they can see you on their other buddy list.
With things like DeadAIM and the new AIM's linked SNs, it's easier than ever to be online more than once at the same time.
Now, what I do when I only want to talk to certain people? I go onto another screenname that only the people I talk to a lot know. And if someone isn't on the list but I want to talk them, I add them to the list and talk to them. I have a block up so that only people on my buddylist will see me and be able to talk to me. This is the Clairvoyant sn, which you should know...I think I scared you on it once ^.~
My excuse is that I don't read my Friends page enough.
I'm getting better now that I've got some communities going on, but I'm still...subpar ::hangs head::
And then when I do read, I don't normally comment b/c I don't know what to say, or I'll sound stupid, or I can't think of something to say or whatever.....
