I'm not sure where to really ask about this--most all of my AW time is spent in BRBC or Ask the Agent--so I apologize if this is in the wrong place.
I just received an angry PM at one of my responses on a thread. This is fine. I've never had this happen before, but okay. I responded because I was feeling lectured to when I don't believe I deserved being lectured to--and there were some assumptions in the PM about my experience that were unwarranted, and some of which seemed mean.
I tried to respond, I mean, as the person who had PMed me had decided to not receive PMs in return. My only option now--it seems--is to respond in the thread. This person left a a much more civil response regarding my post in the thread--one I wouldn't respond to, really. But that means that the only way I can respond to the person who PMed me is by referencing something they sent in private that has little to do with the thread as a whole.
And, in fact, I should probably just ignore the PM altogether.
I guess the only real question I have--which is why this is in the FAQ section instead of anywhere else--is where would I go to kvetch about this? Also, is there any way to simply block a specific person from sending you PMs?
