Blocking Users
Blocking users prevents them from reaching out to you directly and seeing your posts. Blocking a user with your community profile will have the same results, as well as preventing them from finding your public events.
- Select a user from a chat room or from DMs.
- Tap on the 3 dots next to their profile..
- Block their profile (this can be undone at any moment)
Staying Safe in Chats
- Don’t share personal financial information in messages.
- Keep conversations focused on events and community topics.
- Report anyone asking for money or offering unverified services.
🧠 When in doubt, use Report or reach out via Help → Contact Support.
