I suggest that you don't accept any friend requests until you have interacted with (or read the posts of) the person considerably via the forum threads and feel they are trustworthy.
There is a good reason for me saying this which I can't disclose but it's nothing to do with myself.
I also suggest you don't leave your PMs open (via settings) for anyone to be able to PM you but set them to friends only if you want PMs.
Lastly, if you receive PMs that are unwelcome and then remove that person retrospectively from your friend list this doesn't stop them PMing you.
There is no blocking function.
Just bumping this old thread of mine FYI.
Thank you for this ^. I didn't know there was a friend feature but it's good to know r.e. not being able to block people. Thanks
