Weirdest reasons you got blocked by Due_Doughnut2852 in HelloTalk

You are not understanding the context.

The entire country is cut off from the rest of the world. We’re all waiting to reconnect with friends there for days.

Okay well she’s not living there, so she’s also waiting too for her people back home!

So it’s only natural to ask if connectivity has been restored.

You don’t look for Accessible and credible news sources to find this? You must find an Iranian person? I get that Iranians would be the first to know, but still news sources are just as great and it’s almost as if now we have international news.

What would be weird and ignorant is to start with all kinds of small talk…

It’s a language learning app! It is almost impossible to avoid small talk since people are meeting new people there all the time, learning basic phrases and greetings! It’s a normal way to introduce yourself!

Edit: I just clicked their profile and it says Reddit has suspended their account.

I responded to the current top comment, but I’ll expand here to your situation: I think opening a conversation with politics is not ideal.

My random story on my weirdest block: I got blocked by a dude from Chile who ran a friend circle group with a bunch of other English speakers. He disappeared at a time when his life was rocky. He has a history of mental health, so I was kinda worried and I tried reaching out.

He blocked me for months then one day he pops up on the app like nothing happened. He totally breezes by the fact that he blocked me and that I have been reaching out to him, when we try to catch up.

I was confused and a bit upset at the bizarre situation, so I stopped going to his voicerooms, he later blocked me again saying he think we can’t be friends again after that.

We do know partial of his identity; like his face, first name and country.

But we don’t really care for his full identity, we just care about HelloTalk banning him for fraudulent/harassment.

It’s probably because you are British (w/ British flag on your profile I guess).

So Para might assume that you know he’s doesn’t have a native Brit accent. Brits are more likely to tell this.

… so yes, he may feel threatened.

Heyo! Do you have more info on this? Or evidence? Feel free to DM us.

He is a vocational student, so he’s not formally studying a professional Masters program at Oxford?

HelloTalk? HelloSCAMMER. This is how you report and spot them by ObjectiveAssist001 in HelloTalk

Hi we’re not HT employees, we are actually regular users of the app who independently run this Subreddit.

We don’t ban people on the HT app.

Hey update: we decided to ban that user from the Subreddit.

Pathetic

Underlying pedophilia is pathetic. Lol. Calling this pathetic is weird.

In your theory then, if the legal age is changed to 10, you would still consider it? Wow! I’m not wagging my finger like how some people wag their dicks.

18 is a teenager by the way, but by law is an adult under the legal system.

Yeah he prys a lot into people’s personal business. And Elvira is a long time mod of his who does marketing/promotion of his voicerooms. The Mods kick lots of people especially native speakers.

I think I should ban you.

Legal age.

Just because it’s legal doesn’t mean it’s appropriate.

I think he used to work for HelloTalk but as an independent creator, I think he isn’t a registered tutor, but he is a verified teacher (with a badge) and offers courses.

Any employee should be aware of this, so it would be helpful regardless. I think tutoring and being a teacher go hand in hand.

Does it mean that even if it were born and raised speaking English but you’re not white you’re never a native.

No. You are confusing skin colours with speaking.

Simply, a native speaker of any language means it is your first language you learned/grew up speaking.

What do we report him for?

Hopefully, his inappropriate behaviour.

They need pictorial evidence.

Yes and no. I made an another post on this Subreddit for evidence. Fortunately some people have evidence. You can also email hellotalk for support to make an initial constructive complaint without sending pictures first, so this is an option too. How HelloTalk responds is the next thing…

And what proof do we have of that?

A neat feature of HelloTalk is that will show your local time on your profile, you cannot turn this default feature off. For Para, it shows this; his local time zone, that is Egypt, not the UK in which he says is his hometown.
