Blocking is extremely important to personal safety. "Ignoring" isn't appropriate advice to anyone who's even been deluged with crap from a harasser.
Well it just depends on your mental fortitude. Harassers always stop when they don't get a response, because your response is necessary for them to continue. Getting the messages at all can be upsetting, but the power is in your hands to delete them and not let it get to you.
No, harassers don't always stop - this is a very simplistic view of things. Just 'buck up' and all will be well, eh? Have I misinterpreted your comments, or do you also believe that people who are on employment insurance are just lazy?
Case in point.
