Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I wish blocking also prevented them from viewing my posts
I wish that too, but I understand why it isn't. Opens the blocking mechanism up to abuse.

It's really crazy how internet regressed in this regard. "Don't feed the troll" is been the moto of the web but not it's almost inverse. People try to justify this as justice seeking but its clearly doesn't work.
It's because of engagement algorithms, partially. Unlike 'dumb' forums/boards, the bulk of the modern internet heavily rewards trolling (and engaging with trolls) in every form.
That, and very little community moderation.

I’ll block anybody I see posting ai crap regularly. I want to see as little of that garbage as possible.

I gotta admit, I can't stand content I can't engage with. What's the point? It's just grandstanding and blowharding.
Man all get comics these days seem to be mostly about people bothering her online. I get the desire to vent that frustration but it's been a while since I've seen anything else.

People who complain about being blocked really are the worst.
I really dislike this person's comics for some reason
I don't block people. It's better to downvote them.
What is incredibly toxic is insulting someone and then blocking them, so they can't defend themselves.

I block the losers posting AI slop. Can't force me to look at that trash.
