I just blocked from subscribing to my favorite band's Youtube channel. I'm crushed... It's a small band, so one of them had to have done it. I know I can still see their videos and love their music. I just wonder why I always have to end up on the outside. I didn't get political or anything. I thought all my comments were nice... or at least not mean... I didn't troll... I wish they'd at least send e-mails telling you which one. It"s like the world doesn't want you to understand, doesn't want you to get any better at things.

Can you post some of the comments you did send?

Better yet, post all of them if you can. There may have been just one that they took exception to.

Could it be they are just blocking people in general?

Another thought, what kinds of videos/links do you have on your own profile. I've had people I think I blocked because I didn't like the nature of what was on their profile and didn't want people to think I was like them by association.

Not something to take personally...it's the Internet, but maybe something you have struck them the wrong way.

I have also gotton blocked on websites. I am sure it may have an opinion I expressed or what I am into or believe in. People will just block you for no reason. It happens to everyone. I have blocked or ignored a couple people, maybe more, because I didn't want to read their crap. They would post something provocative and I would put them on ignore to avoid seeing such future posts and there was someone who was just as ass and I got tired of seeing his mean posts and put him on ignore.

I wouldn't know how to find all my posts... I just gave in and made a new account. I don't use it for anything except viewing and commenting, and now I'll just be viewing. I guess I could see myself doing to same thing, but it still hurts. Mind you, you'd think a struggling band would hesitate to block a fan from their actual band channel without them harassing or being rude or nasty... and I wasn't. I was always saying how great they were.

I can't count how many times I've admired someone and had them be unable to stand me. It never gets easier.

Without knowing what was said and how it was said, I can't really make a comment about what happened. Then again, people get blocked all the time for no reason since the person on the other end is just so unstable.

I had that with people on facebook and I do my part even to be nice and I still get blocked.
