Damn that is frustrating when I forget to type in the subject after spending time to write something in the message area, only to have it erased because of my mistake! Oh well, maybe this will be a lesson to me.
Art, I hate this too! You feel like you put your best effort forward and then...bam, you do it over. When I address envelopes in MS Word, the same thing happens, but I learned to highlight and copy the address, then when the envelope comes out upside down, or backwards, or whatever, I just paste the address back in for a second try. Seems that would work here as well.
When you block a person, they can no longer invite you to a private message or post to your profile wall. Replies and comments they make will be collapsed/hidden by default. Finally, you'll never receive email notifications about content they create or likes they designate for your content.
Note: if you proceed, you will no longer be following .
