I'm getting the impression that people are miss understanding the purpose of this button's creation. Obviously blocking all incoming messages and invites while you are actively engaging with people on AChat is unhelpful and ridiculous. But when you go to the bathroom, take out the trash, edit your profile and wardrobe, or minimize the window to browse the internet, this button comes in handy. As for the button that blocks all incoming messages and invites from free users only, I don't believe this function will have a deep impact on preventing people from "meeting new people." You can still receive messages and invite from premium users. Free users can still engage in conversation with other free users or premiums who are active. If free users don't want to be blocked, they should just upgrade. I don't believe in this notion of discriminating against free users. As premium members, we pay pay to access privileged content and to share experiences with other premium users. There is no purpose in paying for a subscription if non paying members benefit from the same content we do. (Excluding those who rely on gifts from others to support their subscriptions) I understand some members are unable to upgrade due to financial difficulties but I think AChat already gives free users more access to adult content than most other adult sites. And most of all, if none of these reasons are useful, you don't have to use the button at all. I doubt all premium users will be abusing this new feature by blocking everyone. After all, the purpose of this game it to meet new people, make friends and have fun. I just think this "busy" button is a way to "control the chaos."
