It seems a little unfair though because it changes the way the conversation looks to the outside doesn’t it? If the other person can’t see your reply to you then you can just lie in your comment and people will think you’re telling the truth since they didn’t bother to refute it. Hell someone tried to do that to me once. Thankfully while I couldn’t see them directly I could see them in the Post history for some reason so I was able to edit my comment to set the record straight. I blocked them for harassment by the way so it makes total sense that they were doing that.
The middle ground seems to be that if someone’s blocked you you should be able to see their comments but not reply directly. That way if you want to comment based on what they said you can just not with a direct reply to them.
Well by that logic why even Post in a public forum at all? If you don’t care about any of us seeing or reading your comments then why are you making them? Shouldn’t you just say them into your mirror? I mean hell by responding to me at all you’ve proven that you care. Otherwise you would have let my comment go without response right?
This is a message forum. The entire point is that we’re all talking together.
This is how it should work. You block someone so you don’t have to see them. Why do you care if they can reply to you if you can’t see it?

Who cares how it looks to others. If you have to have the last word then don’t block them.
