Excellent question! Will ask tech for the answer....

Tech · 27/03/2012 21:32

I think the receiver doesn't see the message, but there's no notification of that fact to the sender.

So the upshot is that sender doesn't see that receiver has blocked them, but receiver never sees the message and doesn't have to deal with it.

ChaosIsTrulyRiled · 27/03/2012 21:33

Ahha.

Tyvm.

So when I press Message Poster and I shoot to the top of the page, it's just a glitch, nothing to be paranoid about?

Phew.

CarpeJugulum · 27/03/2012 21:34

Okay. I want to know who blocked Chaos?! Grin

AlistairSim · 27/03/2012 21:35

It's her own fault for sending me the kitten porn.

FreedomToBreathe · 27/03/2012 21:36

Meeeeeeeeeeeee

CarpeJugulum · 27/03/2012 21:37

Kittens have porn?!

Tech · 27/03/2012 21:37

No, that sounds more like the page hasn't finished loading yet, so the script that kicks in when you click the link isn't working yet. Before the script gets to it, that link is just a link to the top of the page (Note to self: change that to something that doesn't result in moving....)

So if you click that link too soon you go to the top of the page. Try reloading the page then click again maybe? Or you might have scripts turned off. If scripts are turned off, PMs don't work (along with a few other things.)

AlistairSim · 27/03/2012 21:39

I know, Carpe, it's wrong on so many levels but hopefully it will have taught Chaos a much needed lesson.

ChaosIsTrulyRiled · 27/03/2012 21:41

A man went up to the barman and ordered a drink. With his drink, the barman gave him a bowl of peanuts, and from the bowl of peanuts the man heard a voice say, "I think you look great." But the man just ignored it. Then the man went over to the cigarette machine, put his money in and got nothing out. He heard a voice from the machine say, "I have never seen such an ugly face." At this point, the man was confused, so he told the barman about the voices, and the barman said, "The bowl of peanuts was complimentary, but the cigarette machine is just out of order."

Babum.

crazynanna · 27/03/2012 21:57

Joseph the carpenter was in his workshop doing some work. He made a mistake and shouted out "JESUS!"

Jesus hurried in. "You called me, dad?"

"Nah" said Joseph "I just hit my thumb with the hammer."

Wotcha Chaos - I like the new name. I mentioned that you seemed riled on your Women of Wuss thread earlier - so it is true; you are officially irascible.
