Can you block an abusive poster?

[LilyPAnderson]

Is there a way to block people on mumsnet? A person started swearing at me for my honest opinions and experience of a medical condition while growing up, and they have no intelligent other conversation either. Just dumb swear words.
I'm worried they might stalk me on other threads.
If I can't block them then don't think I will bother posting for a while, but then that's probably what they're trying to do, to bully me off here.

Hi OP - you can't block people on Mumsnet but you can report posts to us. To put things in perspective, all we can see is that some posters disagreed with you on a thread, as is the way of things on any large forum with lots of varying opinions. We can't see any evidence that any poster is stalking you on the boards - if we did, then of course we'd take action.

We're going to close this thread now as it's unlikely to go well.

I just looked back and OP said "drummed in to them"

Which in my view is worse than the word trained.

OP. Just report the posts and let the moderators deal with it. They decide on what is and isn't allowed here,

Blimey.

@LilyPAnderson I know it's hard but people are allowed to challenge your views on a forum. You have challenged theirs.
