If I have someone blocked on Facebook and write on someone else's wall, can they read my wall posts?

bobbonew: I ask because I know for a fact that if I have them blocked, I can't read wall posts they make on another persons wall. But can they see mine on that persons because they don't have me blocked?

Its confusing, but I just don't feel like de

No. If they're blocked it's as if the two of you don't exist to one another. Nothing they do shows up for you, and nothing you do is viewable by them. You're safe.

UNLESS whatever you post is public to all of Facebook, and they view it without actually signing in. Which I doubt is going to be any case.

No, they can. I know because I posted a comment on my friend's wall that the kid I had blocked also posted on and he was able to read it (I was able to read his comment too). It just didn't show a picture for him.

Oh wow, was I misinformed. Haha. So I totally have to go patch things up with a few friends now.

Here's how it is. If you block another member, then that member cannot contact you or view your profile, know any status or other updates you have done. But if say you and this member have a mutual friend, and you post a comment on the mutual friend's wall, then this blocked member will be able to see it.

They create private messaging for a reason, so if you want to keep certain things private, I recommend utilizing this feature.

Thanks for the advice I was almost positive this was how it worked. It sucks being mutual friends with someone that is an absolutely horrible person. (Not who you think Kenbo ^^ )

Someone blocked me on FB, they made a comment post on someone else's wall, I cannot see it on my friend's wall but it has showed up in the News Feed. The person's name is blocked but I can see what they wrote. Even better, I can comment and like it, so I am having a nice chat right now. :D

A comment that one of my old facebook friends made on my wall is showing up as being made by a different friend... has anyone else had this happen?
