I try to give the most grace possible. I've only ever blocked two users here. That said, I'd totally understand why someone might block me.

I think that all of the people I've blocked for a reason that I can recall have been users who were repeatedly spamming comments in threads to try to make them unreadable for other users. One was just commenting over and over with a couple of giant inline Simpsons images.

Wild trolling behavior. Was it in a troll related community?

No; I'm not subscribed to any communities that deal with trolling. I wasn't even aware that there were any out there.

I mean like shitposting/meme communities. I troll and act silly in communities like those but mostly keep it serious in this one along with other serious communities.
