QuestionCan they see what you send them even if they blocked you?
Community AnswerNope, once they block you, they don't receive notifications from you anymore. -
QuestionI can still send him stuff, but I can't see his snap score, did he delete Snap or me?
Community AnswerHe removed you from his contacts, sorry for your loss. -
QuestionI'm very annoyed because the person I like blocked me and I wanted to start streaks. I am considering making a new account just so I can talk to them again. It that too far?
Community AnswerYes, that is too far, and it could even be deemed harassment. If you know them, try talking to them in person about why the blocked you. If you did something wrong, apologize.
