What prompts you to report/block a user?
 
If I find a post to be threatening, harassing or trying to incite violence, I'll report it.
 
I'd only really bother blocking someone if they were repeatedly harassing me, which isn't something that happens, so I don't ever block or report people tbh
 
If they go out of their way to converse privately with me just to harass me. Otherwise, I have pretty thick skin and just ignore it. Plus simple block resolves it all unless they make another account and use VPN :P
 
I've never blocked a member as far as I can remember but I've reported people before. Generally I report if the person is flaming someone because that isn't right no matter what the forum is. A lot of other rule violations I don't report if I'm on other sites because I hate making work for others if the violations are weak.
 
I've never blocked or reported a member.

If I did, it would be because they were really rude or creepy.
 
Just easy to block them rather than report. End of the day if you was to report you are wasting your time and you will not have any results.

It may depend on what they are doing. If the behavior is bad enough, I will block them.
 
Mostly for harassment, I have never blocked anyone on any platform as yet.

If I can sense that the user is rude, I will surely block him or her. There are times when these social media platforms are infested with cyberbullies. If they are starting to create flames online, I will report them right there and then.
