> BellaD's threads and posts have disappeared but not from everywhere. Same with Jack A's and some of mister's.
Sorry, it took me some time to get caught up.
> I didn't see BellaD receive a block anywhere. Would you please clarify what has become of this poster or if this poster was posting under a different name that was blocked previously?
Those names were all being used by someone who was supposed to be blocked. Those names are now permanently blocked, and that poster has been re-blocked for 52 weeks.

Also, in case this isn't clear, just knowing your babblemail status doesn't mean someone can babblemail you, they still need to be registered here (and to have it turned on themselves).
