How to add to an emergency on VK and write a message if you are on the Black List

What is a blacklist

Sometimes it happens that in a fit of anger a person loses control over himself and can write a lot of offensive things. This state of affairs can seriously damage relationships and complicate reconciliation. Therefore, to avoid unpleasant moments, you can temporarily add a person to the stop list.

It also often happens that inadequate individuals can write various nasty things and insults or offer relationships too intrusively. Exhortations in this case only provoke additional streams of abuse. Instead of wasting your time and nerves on empty disputes, it is better to immediately ban such individuals and live in peace.

The VKontakte blacklist is a special section of the settings where you can send a certain number of social network users. Once on the stop list, the blocked person will not be able to contact you in any way through the social network:

view the page, comment, like posts (when trying to get into the profile, he will see the inscription “Elizaveta Petrovna has limited access to her page”);
write responses to your posts in other groups or communities;
send a friend request;
send personal messages.

Any user can be blacklisted, regardless of whether he is a friend or not. Today, this is the most accessible and convenient way to get rid of the obsessive attention of people you don’t like.

What’s interesting is that a person may not even realize that he is on one of his friends’ stop lists. VKontakte does not send any notifications. You can guess this only when you try to go to a friend’s page, or if there was previously a communication in a dialogue (it will be impossible to send a letter, the message “You cannot send a message to this user...” will appear).

To avoid having to blacklist strangers every time (online job offers, dating, etc.), you can correctly configure your privacy settings once. In this section, you should select the appropriate items in parameters such as “who can send me private messages” or “who can view my page.” By selecting the necessary settings for all the conditions, you can ensure that strangers will not be able to write personal messages, view and comment on posts, or be added as friends. This opportunity is often used by public figures to limit the access of strangers to their page.

What is it and how does it work?

There is a specific section in your page settings. You can add custom pages here. If you do this, the person will completely lose access to viewing your profile. When he tries to log in, he will see the following message.

The user has restricted access to his page - we cannot view it

Most often used for the following purposes:

Restricting access to your page and data for unwanted persons.
Blocking spammers.
Rough withholding of your information. To more precisely configure access, it is advisable to use the parameters from the “Privacy” section.

How to blacklist

There are two ways to add a person to the stop list through a browser on a computer. In the first case, you need to refer to your own profile settings. The algorithm of actions will be as follows:

you need to log into your VKontakte account;
click on the arrow next to the small avatar in the upper right corner;
in the expanded list of options, select the “Settings” section;
on the page that opens, find the “Black List” settings subsection (it is located on the right side of the main window);
a section with blocked people will open, you need to click on the “Add to blacklist” button;
a window will appear on the screen with a list of your subscribers and a search bar; in the search bar you need to enter , a link or the exact name of the user you want to block, and click on the search button;
after the results appear, you need to select the desired person and click on the “Block” button located opposite his avatar and name.

This way you can add them to the list of unwanted guests on your page. The same method allows you to remove people from your subscribers.

Now let's look at the second method of blocking - on the page of a user with whom you do not want to communicate:

go from your profile to the page of the person you are interested in;
under his main avatar, find the “Add as a friend” button and click on the three dots located next to it;
in the window that opens with a list of functions, select the bottom one - “Report page”;
in the form that appears, indicate the reason for blocking and check the box “Block Elizabeth’s access to my page”;
click on the “Submit” button.

After performing these simple manipulations, the person will be blacklisted. To make sure everything was done correctly, you can check who is on your stop list. You can do this as follows: go to the “Settings” section, then select the “Black List” subsection. The window that opens displays all the profiles you have blocked. If the person you just tried to block appears on this list, then everything was done correctly.

You can mark a person as an unwanted guest not only through a browser on a computer, but also from a mobile device. Let's look at how to block a user via a smartphone or tablet:

First you need to log into your account through the mobile application;
press the three dots in the top line and launch the menu;
select the “Friends” subsection;
find the person you want to include in the emergency (if he is not among your friends, you need to use the global search - the “magnifying glass” icon in the bottom menu);
go to user account;
click on the three dots located on the main page above the avatar to open the desired menu;
select the “Block” function in the same way as described above.

This is how easy it is to restrict access to your page to an annoying fan or an unfamiliar user on the network using your phone. After this, the person ends up on the stop list and loses access to viewing your profile and communicating with you via the VKontakte social network.

Services and applications

As you understand, the path suggested above is good for those who only have a couple of suspected users. But what if you don’t want to go through a long list of friends, looking for the one who added you to the emergency list in VK? Then you will have to use third-party services or applications.

There are many of them and they all promise comprehensive results, but there are only two that are relatively safe and reliable. They are online extensions of the social network, so their use guarantees confidentiality and safety of personal information.

It is difficult to verify the dubious activities of third-party resources, so be prudent. It’s easy to run into scammers who will start extorting money. Or they will use your page to send spam, obtaining your login and password. Or something worse.

Service 220 VK

220 VK is a useful application that allows you to track the secret activities of any user. When you enter the page ID, you can see the author’s hidden friends, his groups, age, location. The service will help you look and find out who blacklisted VK by searching for contacts from your list and their social circle. The option takes some time. If you are ready to spend it, go to 220vk.com. In the right menu, select the “Black List” block.
